Groom didn't turn mic on
by Chris Bryan (ctb1010) on May 5, 2008 at 1:32:04 pm

Hello,

I shot a wedding this weekend and outfitted a groom with a sony digital audio recorder and a lapel mic so that I could capture the ceremony and sync it up in post.

I went through all the directions for the recorder which was essentially just hitting two buttons and left it at that.

After the wedding I tried to pull the audio off of the recorder, but its not there. The audio is there from me explaining to him how to start the recorder, but nothing after that.

I'm guessing either he forgot to turn the recorder on, or the recorder was too confusing and he thought he had turned it on.

Now I'm left with really awful audio from my two shotgun mics that were about 10 feet away from the bride and groom.

Anyone else ever run into this issue? How do you handle explaining the recorder to the groom. Or do you give it to him and just have it recording from the time you give it to him until the time you get it back?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
