A couple of mentions:<BR/>1) I noticed there was panning in the PC student-grad section of the program. I know you've specified "no-panning" preferences in live shots like these, just wanting to get more clarity/input.<BR/>2) I also have found it helpful to visit the "Quiet Room" downstairs once every month on different weeks. I get to see different CamDiretor shot styles for Worship and also Service. It has been a great tool to learn and improve my own style.I-Leenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24201073.post-29611112166482578862008-06-03T20:34:00.000-04:002008-06-03T20:34:00.000-04:00You're right, Dave, I was having to do a lot of active mixing of Mike's mic to balance between a pleasing vocal ensemble blend and getting his instructions heard clearly. I probably got better at it as the morning went on.Davidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17680006248653565284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24201073.post-9887720741198956682008-06-03T13:44:00.000-04:002008-06-03T13:44:00.000-04:00During the 2nd service I could hear Mike B. directions quite clearly.<BR/><BR/>I did wonder at one point if the Sunday plus person was hearing it as well. <BR/><BR/>One song he clearly (imo) started singing a verse and the lyrics jumped to a couple of different slides before getting the correct one on the screen.<BR/><BR/>.02Jameshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01271676954480601054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24201073.post-19924748067110085562008-06-03T13:23:00.000-04:002008-06-03T13:23:00.000-04:00I noticed during the second service the camera was in exactly the right place when the lights came up. It worked out perfectly on the DVD so that when I hit record the lights came up there was no need to recenter on the speaker.Dave H.http://www.blogger.com/profile/17098254259680902864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24201073.post-4641140703948761832008-06-03T11:51:00.000-04:002008-06-03T11:51:00.000-04:00Hey all... My only thought/suggestion about the 'getting the shot up faster' workflow would be to have either the producer or someone who is able to see the bigger picture of what is going on let the house director know that it seems like the speaker is ready to speak. <BR/><BR/>A lot of times we'll have the shot pretty much ready to go, but since we (CD/HD) are only seeing the speaker isolated usually, we are unaware of what else is going on in the auditorium so we don't know whether the speaker is ready to address the congregation or is just standing there waiting to address... <BR/><BR/>If it is better to just throw the person up and have a few moments of the person 'hanging', then I think we can definitely just do that. <BR/><BR/>Anyone else have thoughts on that?billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14887647870936108619noreply@blogger.com
