The Wonderful World of Wind Protection

Nick Huston, aided by a wind machine, takes us on a tour of windscreens, fuzzies, zeppelins, and lav covers from Rycote, Cinela, K-Tek, LMC, Remote Audio, and Bubblebee in some hands-on, albeit non-scientific, testing..

Why did you mic the fan? Why did you not point the mic on your voice? Like what we do in the field...To compare wind protection I don't want to listen to fan noise, I want to hear a voice and determine which blocks the wind the best. Albeit, thank you for the showcase.

Very good! Now let spread this video to producers and to the one band cameramen, the important need of a well equipped soundmam. So many jobs are scraped because of bad sound. A soundman will save you money, frustrations, he is most of the time the second eye to the cameramen he heard what is important that the cameramen will never heard or to busy with the pictures. In documentaries, he is an important part of the success of the show.

Don't feel bad about the Bubblebee fumbling. I have the same trouble with them.

He forgot to mention a tuque could be use as emergency windscreen. Even a socks. :)
