Ironically the director is the only one who doesn’t look impressed.
Follow up question. Can you use it with BMPCC camera? :p |
Re: At what point do you decide to reveal a twist in a screenplay?
If you've got the right mounts ;-)

That Vimeo clip was brilliant - loved it.
Especially that huge warehouse full of scripts at the end. |

Professionals may have their own kit, what type will depend on the requirements of the local market. However, if they will expect you to working in a professional manner.
Failing that, you can start on another script and/or check out the online film courses with high end professionals that are either free or offering deals over the next 3 months. |

You're going to have to wait for the virus to go away before you do anything. Look at current broadcast. Peoploe trying to interview at a distance, and reporters suddenly discovering their audio skills can't capture distant audio properly, and everyone standing apart. I'd have thought there's no chance of getting this together for a while, because collecting people together is seen by others as irresponsible. I've seen a couple of worthy events designed for corona isolation people at home fall over because people won't take part.

Yes, mic booms have come into fashion for TV news reporters.

It's also a great training aid in how not to do it when the reporters wave the 414 vaguely in the direction of the interviewee's mouth and miss. One in a factory the other day on the news in the morning managed to miss the mouth and capture the shredding machine in the background.

Well can't they boom by using a really long pole but getting in real close above the frame of the camera?
|
Re: At what point do you decide to reveal a twist in a screenplay?
No Ryan, they can't. It's difficult for a trained boom op, but these people are journalists, not technicians. Could you hold a boom above your head, and read your notes, and deliver your questions?
|
Re: At what point do you decide to reveal a twist in a screenplay?
Oh I meant when they bring a boom op with them, like you see some journalists have when the press is trying to question someone on the street. Yes, if they don't have a boom op, then they cannot.

Nor does it matter if the mic is in shot, since the wind shield has a station ID. They also want to be able to ask questions with the same microphone, which is easier in the lower position.
There is no boom operator or sound recordist these days on news, possibly, they might be shooting the news item by themselves using a locked off camera on a tripod. Alternately, they will be working with a one person crew, who operates the camera and sound. |
Re: At what point do you decide to reveal a twist in a screenplay?
Oh okay. I've applied to news stations as a boom op before, but I guess if they want one person to do everything...
