Want To Know About Audio?

The Mic Tour 2011

Probably the biggest challenge for any photographer trying to shoot video is audio; as visual people, we already have visual literacy and the video stuff is easier to grasp, but audio is a completely new world.

I’m delighted to say that I’ll be speaking at the Mic Tour 2011, along with some real audio experts; John Willett and Alex Joseph.

We’re all visual people so the switch to shooting video as far as the visual aspect, isn’t too traumatic. However, audio can be another thing entirely. One of the first things anyone will realise when taking their first steps into the world of audio is that there are a several different types of microphone and the choice of which to use in a given situation can be daunting. The DVEStore have put together a very neat short video covering 8 different microphones and is well worth a watch and more importantly, a listen.
