Improve the Quality of Recorded Dialogue" by Fred Ginsburg C.A.S. Ph.D. MBKSFilmmaking is very much like being on a naval warship. If anyone messes up and the ship takes a serious hit, then everyone goes down. Even though you may have done a great job in your department, and contributed heavily towards one aspect of the film - if one major area of the overall production quality is poor, and the film fails to be accepted for festivals or distribution - then all of your efforts will remain a secret. On the other hand, if a film you worked on garners awards and praise - then having it on your resume is bound to help your career.

 "When to Move the Camera and Why" by M. David Mullen, ASCMotivation is not just something actors need - it's something cinematographers and other cinema artists deal with every day when making a movie. This not only applies to how a set is lit, but also to elements like camera movement. When to move the camera, why to move the camera, ultimately matters more than how you move the camera. As a cinematographer, I have to incorporate the tastes of the particular director I'm working for when designing how a sequence will be shot. Some like to find as many opportunities as possible to move the camera; others would prefer to only move the camera at very key, specific moments. My own personal taste is somewhere in between... [Read more] Congratulations to M. David Mullen, ASC on winning the Emmy Award for Outstanding Cinematography for a Single-Camera Series (One Hour), The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, “Simone”. (www.davidmullenasc.com)  "Solutions for Your Actors' Onset SNAFUs: Best Practices for Worst-Case Scenarios" by John BadhamYou've called the actors on the set to rehearse. The crew eagerly awaits a camera set-up, and the writer is anxious to see how her brilliant scene plays. But then one of the actors (and just hope it's only one) has a serious problem, and nothing can go forward until you solve it. She doesn't know her lines, or she doesn't like the dialogue, or she can't play the dialogue... Or worst of all, she refuses to do the scene at all. Yikes. The entire set is at a standstill. The money meter keeps going up, up, up and morale goes down, down, down...

The acoustic quality inside a car is usually based on the very absorbent seats and the very reflective glass. Thinking for a moment I realized what other location has this similar quality… my vocal booth. Yes, the foam inside was very similar to the interior of a car and the front glass could act as my windshield. By pumping my new dialogue through a speaker aimed at vocal booth window and then adjusting the microphone distance from that window I was able to recreate a very effective in-car sound… [Read more]  NAB ShowNew York® October 16 - 17, New York, NY, USA Jacob K.
