Being heard and scene
In addition to seeing your actors, you need to be able to hear them. This is where the art of sound comes in. You need to place microphones close enough to the actor to get a good sound recording, but not so close that the
microphone creeps into the shot. The skill of recording great sound comes from the production sound mixer. Production sound is extremely important because your actors must be heard correctly. Your sound mixer, who’s primarily in charge of recording your actors dialogue on set, needs to know which microphones and sound-mixing equipment to use. Chapter 12 shares all the necessary details.
