I know this is a big ask but I think it’s a good idea for a future episode. I’d love to see a walkthrough of essential equipment and essential crew for no-budget film makers trying to get into narrative film making for short films. How can you be prepared to shoot with at least two cameras, a reasonable audio setup, and have what you need for interiors, exteriors, and difficult shooting locations all while working with next to no budget?

Thank you so much for backing me up on this subject! :-) So many arrogant newbies think timecode/countdown/2-pop is old school and outdated. It's insane the lack of knowledge some professionals even have when it comes to post-production sound. It's become such a Drag-and-Drop soundpack Generation that completely disregards LUFS as well.

I just picked up 2 sets of the TC-1 Kit 3 Pack, which now gives me 6 of these bad boys for my future projects. Yes, it is more than I need at any one time, but it is always good to have redundancy. In case anyone is interested... the factory foam cutouts that came with the 3 pack manufactures box, pulls out and fits perfectly into 1/2 of a Nanuk 909 hard case. So now all 6 of my TC-1's have the perfect storage solution and includes space for all the cables. Yay!!

Here’s an idea for a future episode. How does timecode get utilize when you have a small production and a camera like the fx3, fx30 or A7IV OR A7SIII. AND it does not natively support timecode due to the face it has no limo pin so you have to do timecode via recording jack? How do you use lav packs and timecode at the same time? I know this is a loaded question but that’ll make for a great videos and it’ll answer my question. I hope this is chosen.

When working at Charter Cable, we had 4hr recordings of LTC so we could shoot more multicam projects at once (only had one ‘house clock’) So if you can’t afford your own LTC generator, a recording fed thru a mixer to multiple cameras can do the trick. Ain’t perfect but beats the pants off waveform sync.

Woah! Great episode. And definitely did not expect the ending. Thank you for the episode and thank you for the VLav. A question. If I have a single camera, two lavs, a boom and a recorder, only the camera and the recorder will need timecode boxes, right?

Devices that don’t have timecode built-in will need a timecode device attached to give it that functionality via the audio jack.
@anthonyroberts92322 жыл бұрын
Very interesting when we shoot in NYC we don't use a time code bix nor time code slate just a normal clap board old school style because of the type of budget but at the end of the day it all comes into play in post production. We keep audio/video logs which helps the editing process and the production gets done. We use DSLR camaras on location which don't carry a built in time code bnc input but my Zoom F4 field recorder definitely has both sync ports in the case we use a pro camara with the addition feature then were good to go in sync.
@Mpactpics Жыл бұрын
I completely get the idea of timecode. Where the confusion creeps in, is related to the devices. How many generators do I need! One for each camera? One for each transmitter/receiver? Deity has a brand new line with built in timecode, how does that factor in? The idea that timecode is a reference point that syncs up video and audio is not hard to grasp. Where I get confused is, where timecode needs to be generated by third party device, or is built in (like with the new Deity Theos system).I really need diagrams and a detailed understanding of different timecode situations. What timecode does is relatively simple. How timecode is implemented, what, when, where, why, seems like endless options for decisions and choices. I have the Deity interview kit, pocket connect and interested in the new Theos system. How does timecode integrate with all the different possibilities?
