What mic for elves?
There's a commercial with those Keebler elves that I'm curious about. It's a faux documentary in which an interviewer wants to know about the secret to the elve's cookies or something. The boom op has this really weird looking mic. It's huge. Nearly a third wide as it is long. Anybody know what that thing is? The commercial itself isn't that interesting. I just want to know about the mic.

Marco, without seeing it, everybody's just guessing. Are you sure it wasn't something they made up for the spot?
|
Could be. Seems like it would be a lot easier just to use a real mic. It's a national spot, so figured other people would have seen it too.
|
I thought this topic was a typo, and you were asking about Elvis ;)
|
I'm positive I've seen the spot, but can't remember what the mic looked like. If you can find a still and post it, one of the genuises here will recognize it.
|
Well do you think it may be a blimp on the mic? Thats the only thing that i can think of.
|
It didn't look like any blimp I've ever seen. The back half appeared to be a shiny metal and the front of it looked like a rounded wire mesh pop filter, like on a studio mic.
