    Never point your boom mic to the mouth. Always point to the sternum/chest at a 45 degree angle from above. If the subject moves and it's pointed to the mouth, if they lean forward you'll risk changes in the audio or losing it all-together. Many other Netflix worthy documentarians will agree on this setup.

    Great walkthrough. I always find it fascinating how other ppl do these thing. I usually have super small spaces to workwith so i can rarely follow your general guide on background separation separation and all but it’s still fascinating to watch (when I’m on bigger/actual sets I’m a sound mixer so i don’t get to play around with the picture much)

    I would like to know why she's at the left of the frame at 2:19 and not in the right. (Giving her more room for her eye line and direction.) I've seen this more over the last year and am trying to come to terms or understand why.

    • @Alexzarfatifilms
      @Alexzarfatifilms  Před 6 měsíci

      What’s up Devin, I don’t have a real answer for this other than my goal at some points were to create a little more tension with some shots and I really felt like this was a cool angle that just felt good in the moment.

    Those two fill lights kill the look , it looked great before they came into play . I would always try to shoot into a corner too , flat onto that huge window is asking for trouble I think.

    I cannot see that you are using any lightmeter for e.g., light ratio between key light and fill light ? Are you not using lightmetering at all and if yes, when ?
    (much appreciated)

    Awesome content as always Alex, I always learn something! Will keep an eye out for the course. How is shooting interviews with manual focus only on the Blackmagic cameras? Im considering BM as an eco system for video. Currently do a lot of photography on Canon mirrorless cameras. But growing the video side of my business and need some proper video first cameras.

    Are the GVM really good. For me it’s either the forza 500/ 300 or GVM 300/500/650 or 700. Thoughts. I have the godox 200vl and the falcon eyes matte box

    • @Alexzarfatifilms
      @Alexzarfatifilms  Před 5 měsíci

      Personally, I like them, but I’ve never used the Nanlight Forza so hard for me to tell you which one to buy but I definitely stand behind the 650 B I’ve been using it for a few months now and it’s been great for me.

    Thanks for the info, how did you get good audio in the house without bad reverb or echo, also do you turn the air conditioner off while recording audio for your interviews?

    • @Alexzarfatifilms
      @Alexzarfatifilms  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Good questions if you can shut off the AC, you definitely should, and as long as the microphone is really close to your subject, you shouldn’t have an issue, especially with all the AI software out these days. With a decent shock on microphone, you should be good to go.

    • @soundbreaker2485
      @soundbreaker2485 Před 10 měsíci +1

      That’s what he mentioned about the negative fill not being able to be brought in closer. Could have been possible to bring in a 12x12 butterfly frame with neg fill or multiple floppy’s lined up to wrap around that side to really cut down on the spill along with laying down duvetyn on the ground You can go absolutely crazy to control the light BUT how much work and resources and time is really worth is for a tiny difference that’s really more of an aesthetic difference than a technically correct difference. This works just fine. They also technically could have put ND on the back window and then the light would have been able to be more directional while still maintaining levels with the neg fill he used here because wouldn’t be fighting against the sun. BUT again really not worth it in this case it’s a documentary not a commercial or feature. This looks fine.
