headpooch Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 I give them a A+ for effort. Wing it. Improvise whenever necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole Hankerson Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Better that than having the boom on the camera. Wonder how that project came out sound wise. Nicole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Moore Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Two things working for them: 1) Boom op wearing headphones 2) Camera on a tripod More effort than some of the shoots I've seen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headpooch Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 And, in a move that only a cheapskate producer could love, the boom man doubles as clean up crew! Two for the low low price of one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted November 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 yip if we look at the time the photo was taken we can assume that the light would of been a bit tricky to boom in from the top. especially with that device, even if it's a straight 2 shot.

BWilson Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 This is how I got my job in the industry, I was street cleaning(something about graffiti) and a tv crew nearby asked if I could help out. My broom pole was much bigger though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Rites Films Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 The film school I went to had one of these. It wasn't until some kid finally broke it over his knee in protest before it was done away with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
