Welcome to the fifth episode of the Speed Bumps Podcast. As you know I love recording on an external recorder but many people record directly on their computers. Is recording on the computer acceptable or should you record on an external recorder? In this video I answer a viewer's question about that very topic. Most people seem to think working in film is like any other job but they are very much wrong. It takes a special breed to work in film and in this video I discussed what it's like.
Audio notes:
As with last week, I'm trying less processing than the first two episodes. The audio was processed at 40.0% on the voice side in Clarity VX Pro which is slightly more processing than last week. What are your thoughts?
