Using Audio Equipment

The quality of the audio can be just as important as the quality of the video on the finished product.

Be sure you are able to do the following:

* Determine appropriate microphone setups for various situations such as: outdoors, groups, interviews, etc.

* Plug a microphone into a video camera using either a direct plug-in or a soundboard.

* Monitor audio input using a headset connected to the camera or soundboard and make adjustments accordingly.
