has this production just kind of ended? IT was cool and has some cool ideas-however I noticed you were running the mic directly into the camera. This is why you r getting that stuffy audio quality that makes things awkward-you should be running the mic into an external recorder like the h4n or the tascam dr40. When u run the mic into the camera , you’re using the in-camera preamplifier which will make even a $2000 mic sound like crap.
Yes this show has stopped production. It was a much too complex concept to be able to deliver episodes every two weeks like we needed to.
As far as the sound goes I’m afraid your not as insightful as you think. I’m not sure how you “noticed we were running the mic into the camera” We were using a Tascam DR-680 8-Track Portable Field Audio Recorder with 4 Sennheiser wireless lavalier microphones along with a Audio Technica boom mic in certain situations. We never did run a mic to the camera. There are some moments when it gets muffled because we had to hide the lavs under clothes and could not get the boom mic in and we did not have time to do ADR. Thanks for the comment though.
A friend of mine told me about this new webisode A cure for dead. So I decided to check it out. It has just the right amout of cool and campy to be a huge it. and it is right here in SACTOWN!!!! Can locals come and watch you shoot, maybe even be a extra?

Thanks for the kudos Amy. We don’t really let people come watch the shoots. It would get really hectic if we did that. But if you are interested in being an extra you can go to http://misfireproductions.com/casting/ and contact us there.
