Recently we took some time out of lessons in order to practise/familiarise ourself with sound so that we wouldn't make any serious mistakes when it comes to the filming stage of the process. My partner and I both used the boom pole, boom mic, micro track, and the directional mic, whilst Charlie was behind the Camera, with the built in Mic and the extra mic we added on top. It was useful for us because we found that a few of our shots when it came to editing had the boom pole just creeping into the top of the shot and so had to do some editing/re-shooting to remove it from shot. This first video below shows the 'scene' being shot with just the mic from the camera:
The video below shows the 'scene' with the boom mic recording the sound and a wind protector over the mic to stop the noise of the wind affecting the sound behind the camera.
This task was extremely useful as we came across multiple problems, such as the noise of the wind, foley sounds and background sound that we hadn't originally been aware off and will now be careful to monitor when filming. Due to this, the sound practise was an invaluable hour and fifteen minutes of our time as we are now ready to film for the actual film.
