Analysis for 2nd Filming

The second time we went and did filming for sound, it was more successful because we new exactly what we were doing and what we needed to record. From the first time we did the filming we learned how to improve our sound by extending the boom pole or using tie mics and that is what we did. We made the sound better by making the sound recording equipment less open to surrounding noises. I think the second time round that we did this, there was a definite improvement in all of the sound quality.
