Filmed interviews at Drayton, Pecometh, and UMES on two separate days - over 5 hours of tape, from which I gleaned/captured 153 scenes, approximately 50 minutes of tape. My initial trim netted 33 scenes running 7:26, which I whittled down to 19 scenes running 4:49, plus 22 scenes of secondary footage running 5:24.
For the three interview sessions, I set the PD-150 on the tripod and roved with the TRV-900. Two sessions involved setting the light kit. I got a bit of help on the final interview from a seminary student specializing in media ministry. During the final interview session, I used the new Azden wireless mics, which performed well. Using both channels on the PD-150 requires separating each channel out in post, but allows me to get a high quality mic on two interview subjects simultaneously.
I also used about 15 pictures to add interest, plus some photos I took after the interviews with the Canon Rebel.
The interviews went very well - the idea was to evoke strong emotions by reminiscing on the impact of Pecometh and Drayton in the lives of eleven interview subjects - Jack Shitama, the Dirctor of Camping and Retreat Ministries for our Conference, conducted the interviews.
