Documentary Unit: Mic Sound Test

After picking up the kit on Friday, I went through my usual routine of charging all the camera batteries and testing the equipment. One of the most important things was to make sure the mic packs were working and that the batteries were full. I knew it would be a good idea to get some extra AA batteries so asked Danny to pick some up and bring them with him on our shoot days.
There was enough battery in the mic pack to do a test so myself and our Production Runner Hayley, set up a scenario so we could see how it all sounded. I don't really like doing things for the sake of it so i decided to make it a little bit of a parody interview and that what i could also practice my editing skills.
Here is the mic test shoot video:




I was thrilled that the audio was clear and am confident with using them on our shoots now so i know that if needed this can be my job.

Stay safe,

Helen
