Capturing clear sound without detecting unwanted noise is essential in shooting videos as sound quality can greatly affect production value. Whether you’re using a DSLR or a professional video camera, picking the best video microphone for your device is crucial in producing high-quality outputs. Fortunately, plenty of brands offer a variety of video mic options for different production needs.
Capture Every Sound on Set with a Shotgun Microphone
Shotgun mics or boom mics are often used in video productions to capture sound in a variety of situations on set. These microphones come in multiple types such as long shotgun, condenser, and video mics.
If you want to capture exterior shots for your video or film, using a long boom mic is your best bet. This type of shotgun mic uses a tight pattern in capturing sound and gives you the longest reach for exterior shots. Long boom mics feature the highest side rejection possible as well for combating outdoor or background noise.
You can also pick up sounds with condenser shotgun microphones, which sound crews often use for indoor scenes. Condenser boom mics give you warmer sound and even greater pick-up distance. Video shotgun mics are great for productions as wells, as these boom mics capture scratch-track audio for easier video and audio syncing during post-production.
Use a Quality Lavalier Microphone to Record Dialogues
Lavalier mics are currently available in proximity and transparent types. Proximity lav mics make dialogues sound warmer, highlighting the voice of subjects similar to announcers and commentators. Meanwhile, transparent lav mics give you more natural-sounding recordings. They provide clean audio capture from several feet away, making them ideal for being planted as hidden mics on set.
Lavalier microphones also have a variety of pick-up patterns. Some lav mics have cardioid patterns that help these devices produce less audience noise and provide feedback control. On the other hand, omnidirectional lavs are also available for more video and film applications as they’re designed to pick up sound from all directions. Wired and wireless lavalier mics are also available for added versatility.
Get Other Types of Video Microphones for Better Sound Quality
Shotgun and lavalier mics aren’t the only microphones you can use while shooting video. Several brands offer other types of video microphones, including stereo condenser DSLR mics. Stereo condenser mics isolate sound just like the human ear, making them ideal mics for wide-angle close-ups. But if you want to use a different type of video recording microphone, you can opt for broadcast parabolic mics, surround array, or surround VR mics.
