Sean, I just found you through this video, but it looks like you've stopped making KZbin videos! That's a shame. I really love your approach and attitude. Thank you for what you DID make, and I hope you are well.

[@ideassharing]

Thank you bro

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

No prob! Thanks for checking out the video!

[@chriswithersphotography]

Good video. Does this method work well with lots of movement as well?

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Thanks Christopher. You might have to dress the mic up a bit more to create more layers and also might want to think about taping both sides to try and keep it stable

[@ChrisKluepfel]

Awesome tip! Do you have a video with the eq of that same setup?

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Thanks Chris. Unfortunately not.

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Hey Chris! I know it’s been some time, but just stopping through to let you know that I’ve uploaded a Part 2, as well as a video showing my post-production process of cleaning up the muddy sounding vocals from hiding the lav! Hope the videos help and thanks for watching!!

[@ChrisKluepfel]

@@SeanWoodsMedia thank you for the update Sean! Gotta see it!

[@casco04]

Great video!! Do you use the regular foamies or the mini’s?

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Hey Jonathan! So I actually use the regular foamies, but majority of the time, I cut them in half and get two uses out of one.

[@vizualizefilms9168]

Great Vid! How often do you use a boom operator? or do you use a boom op and lav up your subjects as a combo?

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

I’m usually doing it all myself. I’ll setup the boom, as well as run a lav.

[@ndifordivine8986]

Thanks, Great content.

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Thank you!

[@ScribblebytesWorldwide]

3:15 yeah that's because you're in shape. Some of us have a few lbs okay 😂😂😂

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

Lolololol!! They’re just shaped a little different on everyone. 😂😂

[@abahmoses3054]

Hi bro please I need your help in micing

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

@abahmoses3054 hello, what do you need help with?

[@giosuepetrone3617]

Hey Sean, every time i try i can still hear the mic touching the shirt. Any advice?

[@OG_predatorproductionz]

Make sure you have enough cushion on the mic, try a mic sandwich with gaff tape or have the subject not move as much. It will never be 100% rustle free, but you can def minimize it.

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

​Hey Giosué! ​​@predator productionz​ gave a great response! Just to add to that...along with making sure you have enough cushion, also be sure that you're keeping the capsule tucked inside the foamie. If it's exposed, then you'll have the clothing still touching the microphone on top of the capsule. Also, if it's a fitted shirt, sometimes I'll also add a strip of super stick double-sided tape on top and slightly press the clothing down onto it. This will keep the clothing from moving around a bit in the area of the microphone. Hope this helps!

[@giosuepetrone3617]

@@SeanWoodsMedia yeah man, i tried different times and seems like it always works best when the shirt is attached well to the mic. Thanks!!

[@SeanWoodsMedia]

@@giosuepetrone3617 No problem at all!!!
