Newton, Massachusetts based technology provider Talamas is holding a seminar conducted by audio specialist David Missall on the best practices in recording sound for a wide range of motion picture productions including sports, news, digital cinema, or even a wedding.
In this seminar Missall will cover microphone basics, demonstrate microphone pickup patterns, booming techniques, shotgun microphones, when to use a lapel microphone, the best interview microphone, as well as wireless microphone applications and tips and tricks for eliminating unwanted noise during production.
