David Waelder Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 The Spring Issue of the 695 Quarterly is now available online. Go to: http://695quarterly.com/ The Quarterly is available to all; it’s not necessary to be a member to access it. Highlights of this issue include: Chris Munro’s account of recording Captain Phillips and Gravity, two very different films. Part 2 of Jim Tanenbaum’s guide to working P-Cap and MoCap projects. This second part deals with the recommended practices for recording sound. A recap of the award-winning teams recognized by CAS, BAFTA and the Academy Robert Maxwell’s account of the challenges of working The Walking Dead. And recollections of working with Jim Webb by Andy Rovins and Fred Schultz. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertw Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Hi Mr. Waelder, I started reading this on-line a couple of issues ago, and all I have to say is "Thanks". It's terrific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Good issue. Really interesting stuff from Mr. Munro, and Mr Tannenbaum is as exhaustively descriptive of his technical setup as we've come to expect him to be. (Big fan of "Timecode In The Reel World" here…) Re: Munro, I gotta check out those D-Cappo mics. philp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old school Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Yet another good issue. So far as I've only had a chance to read Munro's article and it was good on all levels. I too want to try the D-Cappo mic. Thanks to David and all who work on the 695 Quarterly. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Gilbert Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I've just used the DaCappo mics on a very wet project, they are very good, I'd been put off them by some negative comments in the past, but I'm glad I gave them a chance, they were a pleasure to work with.

Marc Wielage Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Great job, David. The stuff on Jim Web was particularly interesting, and I enjoyed the Walking Dead piece a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Smith Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Another great issue. Many thanks to David and the rest of the staff for putting another issue put to bed. A truly thankless task, but an effort that I hope will document what we do for generations to come (as did the previous iteration of "The International Sound Technician" from the 1950's.). --S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Waelder Posted May 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Thank you all for your kind words. They are much appreciated. I share the credit with Eric Pierce and Richard Lightstone, my co-editors, and with Laurence Abrams who makes graphic illustrations, does the online layout and supplies general advice and assistance. @ John Gooch The fader panels used with the Fostex 606 are custom-made. From my correspondence with Chris Munro: "I used Fostex PD606 recorders for more or less everything. I didn't use a mixer for the whole film but used my own custom made fader panels for the PD606 and another custom made aux box that gives me 3 separate outputs for Director, Producers, Script supervisor, cameras, video assist and boom operators IFBs."

Laurence Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Vin, we do have some of those old publications and here is a glimpse of one. Take at look at the reprint that appears as the last article in this issue of the Quarterly http://www.695quarterly.com/695QuarterlyPDFs/695-Quarterly-2010-Fall.pdf called "Sound - Then and Now at Warner Bros." It's a "looking-back-in-time" article, exploring sound production on the Warner lot and comparing how it was done 20 years ago to how it's done today... written in March of 1953!
