Ep.2 - New Year, New Favourite

In this episode of Lame Film School, we talk about The Front Runner, A Simple Favor, trash films, budget film gear, and how you should not use the Zoom H4n with the RODE NTG-2.  Please. As you may notice we recorded this a fair while back before we got all caught up with University work once again but worry not— more is on the way. Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:00 - The Front Runner 7:23 - A Simple Favor 11:08 - Rating Systems and Trash Films 21:08 - Gear Talk 27:36 - In Conclusion... Links: The Front Runner - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7074886/ A Simple Favor - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7040874/ Podcastage, Understanding Microphone Specifications (FAQ Series) - https://youtu.be/U7f6doVimlE?t=312 Notes: Regarding the Zoom H4n and RODE NTG-2 comments here's a little info. First up, if you're not sure what I was on about then you should definitely check out the video I've linked by Podcastage. In fact, if you care at all about audio then his channel is worth a sub. I've linked to the point in the video where he talks about the 'Output Impedance' and then about 30s later, 'Load Impedance'. With that in mind... RODE NTG-2: 250Ω, Zoom H4n: 1 kΩ. Worth noting though at the H4n Pro is rated at 3 kΩ so that's probably a different story, although the pre-amps could still be weak. At the time of writing this the H4n Pro is ~£170, while the Tascam DR-60D is sitting at ~£145, so I'd still recommend that unless you need on board mics too (And even then, I think I'd still recommend saving for the Tascam DR-70D).

This is the first episode of Lame Film School. We recorded this mainly as a test but decided to put it up for your enjoyment.
