I am not a sound guy and we are shooting a HD feature on the HVX. I was wondering what audio equip I should budget for, I would love any suggestions.

 

Info-

Budget 500k+

Shot around LA and in the desert

Your audio budget is $500K?

Good boom..

 

good sound recorder..

 

*GOOD* microphone (will make all the difference)

 

But having the sound professionally mixed will also make a lot of difference. It's one thing I always see people skimp on... they use the raw audio recorded on the day, edit it into the film, and leave it at that.

 

The best example I can give is in 'King Kong'. When the actors and actresses are in the dressing rooms congregating, keywords like 'depressing' are mixed louder. That isn't an accident.
