This was a surprise interview. No time to mic anyone up, no time to prep. You just start rolling. That’s when having an XLR mic on your camera saves the moment, clean and usable audio the second you hit record.
The mic doing the work here: Sony ECM-XM1.
Run and gun. Sometimes the best content is the moment you didn’t plan for.
