Concert Videography 101: The Basics You NEED To Know! || Sony a7 IV, a7S III

Ciao, seguendo i tuoi video stavo per comprare lo Zoom H6. Ho scoperto l'utilità dei 32bit e per i video dei concerti/eventi/etc può essere molto utile. Cosa consigli? Grazie!

Hello Andrew great vid. Could I ask you an advice ? I'm working in Techno club filming DJ and after-movie. I have the rode video Mic ntg what setting do you recommend apart the safety channel?
Thanks Simo

Hi Andrew thank you so much for this video!! In which mode do you film with the hand held? Fully manual or with a priority?

I filmed a concert for the first time and was a little afraid of the changing light Situations during the show, so I decided to roll the camera on shutter priority and auto ISO. That worked out fine until I got an angle from the singer in the spotlight and the crowd sitting completely in the dark. The camera than blew out the highlights on the singers skin completley to in order to bring up the darker areas in the audience...

How do you react to fast changing and different lightning conditions?

I recorded a show with my camera shotgun mic standing close to the stage. I was directly at the center of the stage. I noticed the vocals did not record loud enough. Do you have experience with this issue? Should I avoid recording from center of the stage?

Dont people destroy your cameras if you put them in front of the stage

Thank you, always nice to see this. I love your compact setup. I tow so much gear around.

How are you finding the different rolling shutter speeds of the A7 IV and A7s III, dealing with strobe lights or the like? I'm looking to buy the A7 IV because I will do both photos and videos, but I'm worried about the rolling shutter when doing videos while strobes are going off.

Very helpful! Thank you so much! What kind of card do you use on your cameras?

Thank you for this. I usually film my band with 3 cell phones. There is no way any venue I've played would allow me to set up tripods that either occupy dance space or obscure view. First of it's kind video on this subject. Look forward to the other vids.
