Creating videos

[lowlylowlycook]

I remember listening to a podcast where  James Wappel describes a bit of how he makes videos.  It seemed pretty extreme and uncomfortable.  Something about taping himself in place so the model stays in focus the whole time.

 

Just looked it up and it was on Garagehammer.

Darn you all, now I started filming a painting video of my own...

 

I blame and thank you folks....

 

I'm finally getting some use out of the video camera my wife bought me 2 years ago.

 

I have no clue what I'm doing really and no real script. I'll see how it turns out...

Gurney is blogging about shooting video and just put up a post about recording the audio that might be interesting.

I had considered this, but I'd be using my MXL ribbon mic that I recently got for my small studio setup. I have an audio interface to take the XLR input, add phantom power and send it USB to a computer. It's a really nice inexpensive mic, and you could get a smaller 2-input interface with a single preamp instead of the more expensive unit I use.
