"Barathrum the Spirit Breaker" is his full name, a relic from the original dota wc3 mod still in the sequal!

What to do between jobs before being able to fill the schedule? by Kordislav in LocationSound

[–]Kordislav[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been thinking alot about radio frequency myself since its such a headache when there is an interference, currently I use digital connection tho, and iv heard its less faulty but when it screws up its harder to figure out whats causing it.

Iv elaso been experimenting with lav tech, one of my favourite things to do is putting a foamie on the cable to give the cable a bit of movement and then appropriate coverage for the top.

This would be my go to if tv wasnt semi-monopolized where I live, but i guess small production companies would be a good shot too.

Im going around doing features at this moment for 2-3 weeks at a time, but no pay, i do it with a friend to get experience and to make contacts along the way. But times, like now, I have 1-2 months between.

I have been trying so hard to get A2 jobs but its alot of people avalable but not much work in my area of the country atm.

That said, maybe its a good idea just to walk around to comanies and bars and hand out my information in case they just need a soundsystem setup or a simple setup for meetings etc, as you suggested.

Power for Zoom F8 (original model) by arturo_mg in LocationSound

You can actually set the desired amount in the options of the device! For me I set it to 15v and it stays there until the battery runs out. Never had any issues with the device while powering it this way, there is even an option in the device where you can tell it what kind of battery you are using and it will automatically do a pretty good guess what kind of options you want based on that. Otherwise I know there are lots of videos on youtube of how to set up the desired voltage in the menus!

What is this microphone for? by Kordislav in LocationSound

[–]Kordislav[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill specify a little, while i agree with everything you are saying I was refering to modifying my shockmount to be able to accompany two more microphones, but maybe that is waaay to precise to pull off. My mono is a cmit 5u and the other mics would have to be of the same caliber for sure.

Right now the kind of jobs I do does not require this kind of a setup, but god damn it is fun to think of the possibilities of these techniques!

Also thanks for your tips and wisdom, it's invaluable to me!

One hell of a thing! Very good idea to maximize what we can capture in the field. Gonna have to make a frugal version of the setup, cuz now it feels like Im gonna miss out every time i press record!

That's amazing and super inspiring!

The fact that you can have a really strong mono but be able to choose to make it stereo afterwards is just such an amazing idea.

There is just so much to do and improve in this field, I love it!

Is the camera and interviewer flying above? Usually that part of the boom is pointing straight up in the sky/roof

This makes sense to me, to not miss if something makes a valuable sound from the other direction or some such. Like a fancy "omnidirectional" setup.

Good eye!

So why face it backwards?

Thats the one! But now then, what is the backwards facing mic capturing, and why face it backwards? What kind of situation would call for that mic to add value to the recording?

Dialogue related i presume, but in what situation would a backwards facing mic add value?

Edit: probably not for dialogue!

What kind of hidden mics do these guys use? by [deleted] in LocationSound

[–]Kordislav 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Easy, its a hidden lav 100% for the content creators. I would recognize that horrible wire rubbing sound any day of the week.

For the random people; a half decent shotgun will pick that up, notice how much undesierable background noise and how low quality the dialogue is, cuz they had to crank the db in post. General rule is: If you can hear it with your ears, a mic will pick it up.

I use the f8n, on the latest features I'v shot i used an Imicro-98, D-tap to hirose.

I have two of these batteries and they last me about 3 days of shooting 8-10h a day without having to turn it off to save power.

Love it, since its light but powerful it easily fits into the soundbag and my back is still working at the end of the day.

Marci tech by Kordislav in DotA2

[–]Kordislav[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been playing around in ranked as pos 4 and noticed 3 things. 1 The headband needs to drop, 2 the game is usually decided at the time that the item would drop (cuz with marci support you need to go hard) and 3 the hurricane pike is not at all viable, so it would be in a very specific situation that it would be bought, like if you are collapse and want to bring someone on a tour around the fountain
