Sound for Video Session: Set Audio Levels From Recorder to Camera with Tone

If you're interested in learning how to record and post process dialogue sound for video, please have a look at my courses over at http://school.learnlightandsound.com

In this week's Sound for Video Session we demonstrate how to use the an audio recorder to send the audio directly to camera. This way you get the better sound quality of the dedicated audio recorder and the sound is all synced up while shooting so you don't have to sync in post.

This requires that your camera have an input, that your audio recorder has an output and that your recorder can generate a tone (sometimes called slate or slate tone).

There are some other nuances that we cover in our production sound fundamentals course on line vs microphone level and the need to match between the camera and recorder.
