gformicola Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 See the USA in your Chevrolet.... So the deal is I have two talent in a car for 10-14 days.  My guess is based on the nature of the shoot I'm going to have to wire the car up (Sanken Cub's I'm thinking) and record onboard with a HDD (Sound Devices 744 or 722) and also split this to onboard cameras (ala Taxicab Diaries) and wirelessly feed the lead/follow car/van/semi/megatrailer. Suggestions, ideas, good jokes? I haven't used the Cub before but everybodies write ups seem very positive. The car will NOT be a convertible (so far - Thank God) but of course there is plenty of time for production to change their mind. In the past I've used mostly COS-11's attached to the visor, has anybody used the COS-22 in this kind of situation?? Love any info or suggestions on what others have done.  Hey at least it means I have things to look for at NAB right? Be Well, Gerry Formicola Chicago, Illinois PS things I have thought about are, 1) No leather interior 2) Stuffing the trunk with blankets to reduce noise...... Antyhing else I should think of before we start?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooner or later you'll have to wire the actors too, as well as have a boom mic standing by. Don't let them put you in the trunk. Will you have to work car-to car ever?

Philip Perkins I kind of want to cover my bases on both sides and split the mics to a local HD, Car to Car, and to what ever medium they are recording in car for the visuals, that way I'm backed up on both ends. But I am kind of concerned about not having control of the mics before the HD recorder. The trunk is a no way, even though it is a big car I'm #250 and to old for that kind of #@%*!
