Experience about sound recording


We have done two projects so far in this semester for our film production class. The first time I was a director and the second time I was doing my job as a producer. I have not had a chance to have hands-on in recording equipment for projects yet. However, by working with other people, I also learned some tips for future reference. First, keeping the microphone at a distance away from characters (for example: shot/reverse shot) will decrease the differences of voices’ tones and qualities from different characters.  After editing the actor’s lines together into a conversation, their voices will maintain around the same level, making the audio smooth. Secondly, it is very important to shout out the scene number and the take number clearly and loudly, in order to make sure the sound guy to catch them, also it helps the sound editor to sync the audios.
