Getting The Right Equipment And Expertise With Audio Hire
There are two main reasons to hire a crew for an audio project as opposed to just doing it yourself.
First, they have the expertise. Second, they have the equipment.
In the long run, it becomes much cheaper to hire a professional or a crew to handle all the technical stuff for you. Outfitting, say, a recording studio, or setting up audio recording for a live event, can be quite expensive, running several thousand dollars. This is great if you’re doing audio work professionally, in which case, it’s an investment, but for the one-time user, someone who only needs to record this one specific event, it becomes a lot more money than it’s worth.
Furthermore, the expertise that an audio specialist provides is invaluable. Quite a lot actually goes into knowing how to set up something as simple as recording audio for a live event. The difference between professional and amateur sound work is instantly recognizable. With amateurish work, you hear the passing of cars in the distance, wind blowing into the microphone, you might even hear the air conditioner. Professional equipment and knowledge is, to be frank, built mostly around eliminating all this unwanted noise and producing audio that only picks up what you want it to pick up.
That said, not all audio professionals are created equal. We live in an age where the equipment, while still pricy, has become much cheaper than it once was. These days, literally anybody can buy some microphones, mixing boards and various other audio equipment, take out an ad in the paper, and call themselves a professional, whether or not they have anything along the lines of “professional experience”.
Typically in the field of audio recording, video, photography, an aspiring individual in the field will apprentice under an older, more experienced professional. This way, they can learn the finer details of the craft under the safety of strong guidance. This isn’t always the case these days, however.
So, in order to make certain you’re hiring a capable, competent, professional crew, you’ll want to set up a phone interview, and check two simple things.
1) Are they actually interested in the project?
Any professional crew can set up a microphone and record acceptable sound. What you want is a crew that will actually work back and forth with you, keeping you in the know on all major developments in their planning and taking your input.
2) Do they have any samples you can take a look at?
Most audio companies are proud of their work, and more than willing to let you have a listen in order to know that you’ll be happy with the results.
In short, what you want is an audio crew that will give you exactly what you want. A lot of the big companies in multimedia production are simply not all that interested in smaller projects. To them, it’s just another job. On the other hand, there are smaller companies that just don’t have the experience you need. The only way to find a company that can offer both professionalism and willingness to give their full attention to your project is to do your homework. Talk with them about the project and gauge their response.
