Thanks TY
The Doc – We are following a guy on a one day shoot. He is finding ancient irish lifting stones and lifting them. On this day we are travelling to the Aran Islands of Galway, Ireland.
We will have interviews in the car. We will have him on the boat across and meeting people on the island. We will mic up one of his contacts for a chat We will travel to two stone lifts on the day, over rough terrain.
He will attempt to lift both stones, lifting the stones to his chest. I’d like him mic’d for this, and to get immediate feedback from him. But now that I think about it, I don’t want a mic on his chest as it will get friction and could get damaged.
We will conduct an outdoor interview, asking background questions that we will use as a VO.
The subject will be wearing a t shirt for the lift and a jacket depending on weather. He is enthusiastic, so I see no problem with placing the mic where we want.
Any and all advice greatly appreciated!
Thank you
