How can anyone who is producing or directing ANYTHING be so out of touch with reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecentSound Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Oh and can you bring your own equipment?? Preferably a 788 or something comparable, 6 400 lectros, 15 IFB's, hops for 4 cameras. We can't really give you a kit rental but you'll get to work with great people and it will be a fun 18 hour day and if you're lucky you'll even get to pick what you get on your Subway sandwich!

studiomprd Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 " you'll even get to pick what you get on your Subway sandwich! " actually, no they are just ordering a bunch of the basic cheap ones, made standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell them, "running sound is much too difficult, but I think I can PA and produce this shoot, since your job obviously takes no talent, experience, or training."

atheisticmystic Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 " actually, no they are just ordering a bunch of the basic cheap ones, made standard. That's the killin' part: getting to order your own sandwich wouldn't be too apocalyptic, but when it's Subway, Senator is right; they come with one little black plastic wheel of hastily assembled 3" segments and your aching back and heart just sink. but I think I can PA and produce this shoot, since your job obviously takes no talent, experience, or training." Marc, you've been on a brilliant streak lately. It's time to pen a british satirical comedy or something bro! Best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomsound Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 What about a competent and confident sound tech that can double as a PA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
