    You aren’t getting phasing or combed audio problems from booming a shotgun mic indoors? I also used to boom shotgun mics like the MKE 600, DPA 2017 or the MKH 416 indoors, until I got phasing problems with one of my interviews that pretty much ruined the audio. Luckily I had the interviewee lav’d with a Zoom F2BT as a backup, but ever since then I stopped booming shotgun mics indoors if I can help it. I have since been testing my shotgun mics to see if I could reproduce the problem, and I’ve determined that it’s far too easy to screw up the audio with a boomed shotgun indoors, especially in tight, untreated rooms. The problem apparently arises from the sound waves bouncing off the ceiling, floor and walls and hitting the interference tube at slightly different times, creating the combed audio from phase cancelation. Granted, the MKE 600 seems to fair better than the MKH 416, but I’m able to recreate the problem with both mics. For this reason, I bit the bullet and picked up the MKH 50 for booming indoors.

    For tying xlr's and other things may I recommend T-Fix cablelbinders ? The come in all sorts of sizes and I never go anywhere without them (granted I'm and audio engineer, specialised in FOH work) but still very handy to bind something temporarily! Thanks for the video btw!

    • @blasepivovar
      @blasepivovar День тому

      depends on the project. if I am using a recorder like the tascam, I am typically recording them separately then syncing in post. i think you can route the output of the tascam direct into camera but I haven't messed with that workflow enough to know the trade off of audio quality. if i am recording say 10 interviews in one day and audio quality into camera is good enough, I'll just run my mic straight in and call it a day to save work in post. Hope that helps!

    I picked up three of these lights and they fit into a single hard case. They are hard to beat for their output. Though I definitely love the extra power of the SmallRig 450b, especially when using a large softbox it feels 450 is often at 80-100%. But if I'm shooting in a space that is not competing with Windows, then these FS300b are bomb.

    Hey Blase, how does the Tamron 17-70mm 2.8 compare to the asigna 18-35mm? I currently own the 17-70mm (love the feel of it, its so light even though its a bit long), but your Sigma footage is so stunning, im thinking of maybe picking one up. But if you can get shots like the Sigma on the Tamron, i might not need it. Thanks, love your content!

      hoping to do a video on it eventually! Really just depends on what you shoot. If you already have the tamron, I can't see the 18-35 adding a ton other than an extra stop of light and just a tad more depth of field

    Love Harbor Freight for tools on set. I don't think Harbor Freight has them, but reusable zip ties are huge help. Don't know why they are a bigger thing since you don't have to blow through zip ties constantly

      Also, they have a higher end line of tools that is absolutely better than the equivalents you’d find at Lowe’s or Home Depot. When it comes to hand tools, the stuff stocked at those store are junk. Harbor freight in the last few years has released a line that competes with snap on. Power tools are a different story. I’d stick to Milwaukee

    can u pls make alut pack for darker skin tones for both meadow flog an meadow standard cuz adjusting skin tones with ur luts are very hard, since u probably base ur color grading on lighter skin tones ty my favorite

    • @blasepivovar
      @blasepivovar 3 дні тому

      What camera are you on? I actually have heard the opposite from 99% of folks when it comes to using this pack on different skin tones. Perhaps it is your starting point in camera?

    • @Kastrozaytana

      @ WB is check exposure is check I use Fuji xs20 on flog 2 but it definitely needs a tweak for dark skin cus there’s a lot of adjusting in hue vs hue hue vs sat hue vs luma I study u existentially. I just think u need a pack dedicated to the hue vs luma value

      with the flip screen of the XT4, I would go for a rig build more similar to the XH2S, also here on the channel. Both this rig and that one do share a bunch of parts tho :)

    The first rule of Harbor Freight is, if the tool can kill or maim you, you don't buy it at Harbor Freight. Everything else is great.

    • @blasepivovar
      @blasepivovar 3 дні тому

      haha I get the sentiment there. i'd say it just depends on how you plan to be using said tool :)
