Dokumentärfilmproduktion ur ett ljudtekniskt experimentellt perspektiv
This paper is a study of documentary film production with focus on the
filmmakers choice and usage of sound equipment. Using professional articles and
literature have first of all helped us determine a standard for the
conventional use of sound equipment in documentary film. Afterwards, by
analyzing our own interviews we?ve received answers on how filmmakers relate to
the conventional usage and why they select equipment as they do. Thereafter, we
describe a technical method which helps a filmmaker to be able to record sound
for documentary film on his/her own, using simple measures without reducing
quality. A production in the form of a short documentary film has then been
recorded using this method to ascertain what challenges a simplified equipment
could bring.
