Session 'Stereo location recording'

This was an enjoyable and informative session. Learning about the different methods of recording stereo Atmoses was interesting and useful. It was good seeing how you can get different effects from recording in different ways. For example clipping two tie clip mics to each of your jacket lapels, the sound you record can sound much more like it's from a characters P.O.V as the mics are relatively close to the ears so the recording is like what you would hear in real life. I had previously used the Rode NT4 stereo mic so decided to chose the hydro mic and tie clip mics when we went on the sound safari. I thought that it would be a good idea to try something new to get the most out of the session. I liked the sound that you get when recording with tie clip mics. It feel so much more like it's from the character's point of view which I think will be useful for my solaris clip and I am going to give in a try. It is also less conspicuous that a large rode stereo mic. meaning you are less likely to get asked to move on when recording in public. This session was great not just for learning, but also for experimenting with different techniques. In future for this project especially I think I will definitely be using some of these techniques.
