Put it into practice
Frame the performer and instrument clearly while placing microphones for the sound. The best camera location and best microphone location are often different.
Read guideWork with the venue's light, protect important highlights, and test under performance conditions. Phones cannot recover every dark area or clipped stage light afterward.
Read guideBuild a simple visual concept and record consistent performances with complementary coverage. Match the production to the locations, people, and rights you can actually manage.
Read guideShow the whole player and add a view of the technique you want to explain. Keep mounts and microphones outside stick paths and vibration-prone surfaces.
Read guideGive each angle a role: deck technique, performer expression, or atmosphere. Check recording permission, music rights, and audio routing before planning release.
Read guidePosition the microphone for a clear vocal and the camera for an expressive view. A pop filter helps with breath blasts, but it should not dictate an uncomfortable performance posture.
Read guideLong live sets require permission, reliable sound, power, storage, and a recovery plan. A successful short test does not establish endurance for the entire event.
Read guideUse musical phrasing and meaningful visual changes to guide cuts. Cutting on every beat can become repetitive and hide the performance's natural build.
Read guideChoose angles that reveal different parts of a movement, such as front alignment and side position. Keep the complete movement visible and avoid presenting camera footage as a diagnosis.
Read guideKeep a full-body safety view throughout the routine and add detail coverage only where it clarifies expression or technique. Rehearse the largest movement before recording.
Read guideChoose the clearest safe movement area first, then fit cameras around it. Two useful views are better than extra equipment crowding the exercise space.
Read guideAdd light and use suitable supported capture settings to reduce blur. Frame rate and shutter exposure affect different aspects of motion, so more frames alone do not guarantee sharp movement.
