Sketch for Post Sound

A character (wired) made a quick, speaking pass from the island to the nurses’ station and I was unable to raise her wire sufficiently for those particular three words for the mix. There were wired / 2nd boomed characters in the background, too. A wee bit complicated. Wanted the post sound team to understand the geography so it might be easier for them to fix it since for that character’s angle, the speaking cross happened, and our capacity to cover the scene with the poles did not improve from the wide.

How one woman ran the background extras — at least part of her strategy — documented.
Look forward to AFTRA’s panel for background extras that’s in the works.

TMI? If you’re not a complete geek, yeah, LOL.
A video from my colleague & friend Paul Pouthier (who got the solution from mutual friend / colleague Tom Varga), in answer to my question as to how the heck he did this. This simple solution is what I like to call ‘elegant’.
Thanks, Paul. Thanks, Tom.
