Lav Walkthrough



4/11

Summarize 3 different key functions of a lavalier that you picked up from this short video. What is one question you still have on how to setup a lav?

Lavaliers are good for recording spoken dialogue on screen. If you set it up correctly and hide it in the correct spots, it will give you the best quality audio. It is important to place the mic so the chin does not distort the sound. Putting it somewhere on the chest in the range of sound the voice makes is the best way to get good audio. My question is how do you do the loop so it doesn't pop off easily?

RECORDING DUAL SYSTEM

What are 3 separate things that the presenter says to keep in mind when setting up dual system audio? Why are each of them important? It is important to turn off all automatic settings on the recorder and do it all manual because it usually ends up creating more problems than it solves. Set the sample rate to 48 khz for video. Figure out if you need phantom power or plugin power. Use a slate or clap to mark where you have to sync up the audio and video.
