dominiquegreffard Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Good actors can help you by whispering louder and screaming quieter. If you feel it's right you can just ask them directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikewest Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Have a look at "Reservoir Dogs" and guess how that dynamic range was handled! mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 All of the above: gear with fab dyno range, good input limiters, a quick hand on the trim, and a boomist who can see the big ones coming. This kind of thing happens all the time in docs, you learn to not get ultra close ever and be ready with a quick twist of the wrist to pattern off the big mouth. If you get rehearsals (what's a "rehearsal"?) then you can plan the 2 mic 2 chan thing. p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Thomas Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 On 28/01/2015 at 0:23 PM, VAS said: Careful to not distort the microphone (not so much close when screaming). Careful trim level to avoid overload the mic preamp. Sonosax SX-ST has the "24" "mode" which is extremely helpful for this type of dialogue in a scene. There is a review from Glen Trew about this workflow on Sonosax mixer, but I can't found it. Good luck As a note, the Sonosax SX-R4+ also has a more linear +24dB fader curve option (done in software rather than hardware) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikewest Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Have a listen to "Reservoir Dogs" for dynamic range I'm sure Dave, Mark and Matthew used both boom and radio mike to get a handle on the task. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albrecht Harms Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 for those rare cases I use this: http://www.canford.co.uk/Products/20-023_CANFORD-MICROPHONE-SPLITTER-1-channel-3-way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrd456 Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 you should of course do it mostly with the boom---so background level stays as consistent as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
