Group Meeting #5- 18th October 2016
Our primary topic of discussion in this meeting was the location. As an audio crew, we stressed the importance of the most deadening and quiet location possible as it can effect the dialogue track drastically. The ideal location for the set is a basement so we discussed where possibly locations in Lincoln could be. We decided that one person from the audio crew would go location scouting with Hannah, Lauren and Jamie so that we could give an audio perspective.
Just prior to the meeting, we had come back from Lincoln Drill Hall to look at their basement for a possibly location to shoot in. I went and felt like the setting was great but audio wise not so much. There was busy traffic just outside and a busy public foot path, which would cloud dialogue. I explained that if we were to go with this location, the audio would potentially be compromised.
These are the draw backs that were discussed about the Drill Hall
>The shoot would be rushed as we would only be allowed to be there 10am-4pm. This is including emptying the basement from Drill Hall property as the basement is used as storage and also time to dress the set up.
>The dates for shoot are too spread out as we would only be aloud to shoot on the 31st of October, 14th of November and the 17th of November.
>Too noisy, compromising the recorded dialogue.
>Low ceiling restricting overhead booming. As discussed in my research, this would effect the dialogue track as we would only be allowed to scoop, cutting out the higher frequencies resulting in a mid heavy track.
