Sound Doubts

Took up my first proper sound gig today, swung my boom-pole into a local political meeting for an rough documentary. I even learned a bit more about my Tascam when I got the chance to plug myself into a sound desk which was insanely helpful. I did have a little panic attack while using it though as I hadn't really done a proper test record to see if it was actually good or not, fortunately it worked out beautifully. I did get into some positioning issues for the cameraman, the prompt to record was basically non-existent and put me in a horrid spot for the camera, ended up crawling under a table on stage to get to a better location while the panelists begun their debates. Tad embarrassing but well worth the effort.
