  • About
    I am a boom operator working all along the west coast. I've mostly worked on low-budget indie features as a boom op, and have mixed on a few shorts. I'm from Seattle, Washington but am based out of Portland, Oregon and done some feature work in the LA area as well. Always looking for more experience.
  • Interested in Sound for Picture
    Yes

    One of the mixers I work with told me golfing gloves are great for booming... I didn't try them because I don't like experimenting too much with gear on features and my hands are already rather silent. Anyone else have any experience with these?

    This looks really lazy... But then again, it's also comedic genius.

    RE: "Furry" Lol. Choose your wording with care: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furry_fandom Especially on the internuts.

    Haha! Right on. I'll definitely post about what I get in the mail. Basically, right after I finalized the PayPal transaction, I stumbled across some comment on another site about how there are Chinese knockoffs of the 416 and to be careful. Immediate doubt, slight panic.

    When a superior chews me out for something I couldn't help and then leaves the room.

    I think the reason why it was brought up is because of the "stay in your department" mentality. If you're a camera guy, do that. If you're a sound guy, do that. Doing both is a compromise of interests and quality. If you're willing to spend more money on sound, spend that money on hiring a kickass sound guy who already knows which gear will work the best for each gig. That way you can focus on camera and s/he can focus on sound. I haven't really followed many of your posts though, so my apologies if I'm misinterpreting how you operate.

    I see what you did there....

    I've only had an ME66 up until now. I just bought this as a Christmas present to myself. I thought it was a relatively good deal. Thought I'd check in here to see if I made any major mistakes lol. Pretty sure it's solid though. Used Sennheiser MKH416 for $600 http://www.ebay.com/itm/291035705734

    I find it hilarious how beer/alcohol is so aptly described using audio terms. I love In Flames. I want to go to Sweden almost entirely because of the music from over there. But now I also have this beer as additional incentive. But Anders Friden wasn't the first... http://firstwefeast.com/drink/headbangers-brew-a-history-of-heavy-metal-and-craft-beer-collaborations/ I was totally gonna post this one... but you beat me to it. I laughed so hard when I saw this.
