Audio 101 for Documentary [1-Day Workshop]

At the heart of most documentaries is well-executed sound. Clean audio can elevate a film’s production value, while an inaudible interview or scene can spoil a promising story. In this workshop, we’ll show you the professional recording techniques to make your interviews and footage sound their best. We’ll also cover microphone types, placement, and how to use audio recorders. Strongly recommended for DIY Documentary students.
