Funeral Video

[peacemac]

I will be doing a funeral video tomorrow and dont really know what to do for audio at the cemetery and visitation, obviously visitation will be easier but hope to get your tips on all of this.

Now heres the audio equipment that i have.

Canon Gl2 built in mic
two higher end wireless mics, that run on power adaptors
a few cheap handheld mics

so any ideas would be nice thanks

I still don't understand the question:are you asking us "is the equipment ok" ,"where should I put the mics" or "what songs should I use".

If anyone is speaking that is the audio that needs to be in sync. Get a wireless mic close to the speaker. You can add music later. If the GL2 supports 4 channel recording, you can use the camcorder stereo mic + place two wireless.

Test all this out before you get there.

no i have this equipment, i want to figure out a way to get better audio then just the built in mic on the camera. And theres no power at the cemetery, plus i need to keep the setup simple, because as soon as i get there i need to start shooting... i just dont want to use the built in mic if i dont have to...

So don't use it.
