So with all of the talk lately about microphone setups and backdrops I thought maybe we could have a central place where all of the tv/film puppeteers could list their current equipment and whether they like using it or not. I know personally I am looking to upgrade my system and just want to know what other people are using. So I will start with what I have now:
Camera: Sony Handicam Digital 8 TRV140 Its about 10 years old so I definitely need to upgrade. It is good because its not bad video quality and I get no delay on playback through monitors while Im puppeteering like I have heard the more modern digital cameras get. But I would like to upgrade to something HD.
Audio: No system just recorded through the air.
Background: Ok yeah I need this too. I was looking this morning at the links Buck Beaver posted. Might try to make a backdrop in the near future.
Lighting: Natural lighting so far but I definitely want to get some professional level lights.
I work in the film industry and have lots of friends with equipment where I can ask their opinions but I also wanted to find out info from fellow puppeteers. Im especially interested in the delay on monitors as you are puppeteering as I know this can be a pain to puppeteer with. Has anyone found a nice HD camera that does not give them that half second or so delay?
Thanks!
