Week 4 Blog

Walker World has been continuing to move forward and flourish with creativity.  This week we focused on editing the footage we have for b-roll.  Alex and I spend quality time in the editing lab playing with the footage in Premiere.  The biggest struggle we faced was with sound levels.  Many of the audio from the performances peaked and have leveling issues.  The main problem came when we connected the H6 into the mixer.  Sound is such an important part so we will have to accommodate and focus on it for next time.  I think if we can have an additional team member come along for our next shoot to primarily focus on sound it will go much smoother.  The wireless mics worked very well throughout the shoot thought and we were able to capture Walker's conversations even in crowds with little interference and background noise.  I do like the certain level of background sound though and we are getting a good  mix when recording wild sounds of the patrons talking over each other.  I am very pleased with the amount of footage we captured from our last shoot.   Alex did a great job and almost every shot was usable and interesting.  Cutting down the footage was a big challenge because so much of the shots we got we wanted to use.  But right now thats a good problem to have and we are building a great reel for the final edit.
