Henrik Bengtsson: Cinematographer, director and director of photography in Borås, Sweden.

Im principal sound recordist on a little indie short at the moment, and got tired to collecting hundreds of wav files from my zoom, and renaming them (and backing them up) to project-scene-take based on what the clapper says (ie. "scene x take y clap) on the audio track. So i wrote a little logging software which basically lets you set up a source directory (recursive, so even if its in subdirs it will get all the wav's found inside), and then loop through them, playing each file and by the press of a button either log them as a scene - take (increasing the take each time), enviroment/ambience logging them as scene - ambience (you get a prompt to state what type of ambience it is), new scene (which will log the current clip as scene x + 1 take 1 or discard with take (which increases the take by one but wont copy any file) or discard (without take). If not discarded, it copies the relevant file to a destination directory of your choosing with a filename of projectname_scene_xxx_take_yyy for easy backup and unless you set the destination to the same as the sources, wont touch the original file. Key points are that it speeded my workflow immensly when logging multiple sound files from my Zoom recorder after a shoot getting them named with the proper scene & take, make a backup of the file (and leave the original file intact) and get rid of any discarded sound files. Now i wonder, anyone else interested in this or have any other good software to do their logging. I wrote this for myself so its not exactly perfect and bug-free and just want to check if this is something that others would find useful or if i should just leave it in my tool belt ;D

Sound Editors - Any feedback on these? http://audio-editing-software-review.toptenreviews.com/

Wonder how many here are in the Sony PROduction competition? Feel free to go and have a look at my entry at https://productionawards.sony.eu/go/752 and if you like it throw me a vote. Only the top 5 will move on to judgement ;)

Does anyone know where to go to get a short script (about 5-6 min screentime) done into a storyboard that looks a bit nicer than my extreme stick-figures? :D Cheers! Henrik

I hope everyone is having a great year so far. I'm an actress currently living in L.A. I most recently did a commercial for the video game Call of Duty. And I look forward to continuing to connect with everyone! :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AMgmCx7jFg http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2796058/?ref_=nv_sr_1
