Philip Perkins Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 http://boingboing.net/2015/05/15/best-coast-boing-boing.html For all you LA-rock fans, here's the new studio video+interview we did with BEST COAST for BoingBoing. No number of cameras is too many…. Full band this time ! phil p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old school Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Nice. I'm a fan of Best Coast. Sounded good Philip. You're right, to many cameras ='s to much cutting IMO. Did you mic the amps or DI or both. Also what was the drum micing? Last week I saw a live meerkat broadcast of the band and their new album from the roof of Capitol Records building at sunset. That was good too. Thanks for sharing. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 This shoot was really a scramble--not much time, small space, and every band member had to be laved so that the host could step in at any point and talk to anyone--so the band, the room and 6 wires, with "live" turnovers between talking and playing, as well as feeds and TC for a jillion cams etc. The band was on tour so the editor and I had to bring in and set up the whole moni deal for them too, they were driving in from LA and then had to go directly to a gig in SF that night. The gtrs didn't want DIs so SM7 for Robb and 421s for the other 2, keys and bass DI but we ended upo micing the bass amp too per request. We didn't have the inputs or time to get as deep into the drum micing as I wanted to--basically a "1-each" kind of thing, 57s, 52 kick, 421s, Schoeps OH etc. Working on the roof of Capitol….yikes…mondo RF I'd think. p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Aslan Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 That is cool cutting to the interviews! It's kinda like "whoaaa! They're miked up!" When it first cuts to them... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted May 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 That's the BoingBoing thing (at least with this director)--even though they edit (sometimes) they want the flow of the shoot to be like a live show--keep rolling, bring up the lavs during the last song note decay and they start talking right away. philp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
