  • Lisa, usaually interviews are shot using 2 mono track. One track being a lav or boom mic; the other the on board. I go through and find the channel that the lav/boom is on and delete the other. Just be carefull because sometimes it is channel one sometimes channel 2. You will get cleaner sound this way.

    I absolutely agree, I just know when cold calling it can be next to impossible to talk to the actual person you need to. Also, if they are busy would they be more likely to look at an e-mail than take the time to take a phone call.

    Ok, it sounds like most prefer not to get unsolicited demos our resumes. When contacting would you prefer to get an e-mail introduciton or a phone call?

    Thanks Steven, one other question: How do you find out how much power is being used by your devices?

    Would Raylight open the Avid MXF files? You could try.

    John, IMO learning a piece of software does not make an editor. Yes, you need to be proficient with your tools but read and study what makes an interesting program/show.

    I went to film school and learned a lot of valuable theory and aesthetics; but zero skills to work as a professional. I learned those by interning and getting work in anything related to the industry, finding good people who are willing to share their knowledge and experiences (there are more than you think) and asking them lots of questions.

    Its a tough way to make a living, its a fickle and unpredictable life.

    I would suggest trying to get an internship or volunteer to work for free at any type of produciton company to see how you like it and go from there.
