Hey everyone!
I just discovered this board today, and it's amazing. So much good info!! I was hoping you experts could lend a little advice:
This summer I may tour with a band and create video clips for each show (live performance, interview, fan interaction, etc...)
I'm very new to this video stuff, but here's what I'm considering:
Camera - mini dv or hdd? I think minidv would be a hassle b/c it only holds 1 hour of footage and it takes longer to transfter to laptop. I know I need an external mic and headphone jacks, and something that does well in low lighting. Any affordable recommendations (under $1k).
External mic - is this what most people use to capture good sound? does the mic attach to the camera (i.e. how do you use it?)?
Software - will adobe premiere get the entire job done?
As you can see, this is all new to me, so whatever advice you can provide would be great. Thanks!!!
