Constantin Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 Oh no they've gone bluescreen! CMIT? The green mic is not very pretty. Although, that and Simon Hayes' Greensleeve create a pretty green package. Now if only Cinela could come up with something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Deakin Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I'm curious to know how the color will hold up on the mic with using with a shockmount like rycote or cinela. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgoodin Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 All this green mic stuff is pretty superfluous. Unless the mic is in front of the talent it can easily be removed with a Garbage matte in any green screen setup. It doesn't matter if the mic is silver, pink or whatever color. As long as it is not in front of or casting a shadow on any non-green props or actors it is good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be easily to pluck the green boom from a wide shot exterior. Cheers, Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris R Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Call me crazy but instead of buying a GREEN schoeps.. since the front half is covered by the windscreen simply make a green "sleeve" that goes OVER the schoeps CMC6 body. Seems like a no brainer compared to always owning an actual green mic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze Frias Posted October 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I guess sarcasm is a lost art I'm no longer good at. Perhaps I never was. :-) All this green mic stuff is pretty superfluous. Unless the mic is in front of the talent it can easily be removed with a Garbage matte in any green screen setup. It doesn't matter if the mic is silver, pink or whatever color. As long as it is not in front of or casting a shadow on any non-green props or actors it is good to go. I agree, but to play devil's advocate, and to quote Simon Hayes regarding greensleeve, which I think does apply to this: The Greensleeve was born from a necessity to get the highest possible quality production sound when working on CGI film sets. >>Our product allows boom poles to cross real foreground elements on the set due to its chromakey colour, making it possible to remove along with the green or blue screens we shoot against<<. This leads to closer micing and richer production dialogue while capturing original performances. AND: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
