Extreme Home Makeover Charlotte

While shooting the "behind the scenes" for the participating builder of the Charlotte episode of Extreme Makeover Home Edition, I was forced to leave all the high-tech gadgets in the studio and break out the old fashioned, hard-wired mics.

With numerous full equipped camera crews, using any wireless UHF microphones could cause interference with the ABC crews, so using hard-wired mics was essential. No knowing the availability of hard-wired equipment, I chose to use the only thing that I knew-an inexpensive, single Lav mic, bought from Best Buy.

Shooting interviews with more than one person has been tricky, so if is a better way, I would be very interested in learning more.
