"The Social Network" interior mic

[Kalani Prince]

First off I'd like to say that the blu-ray of social network is gorgeous, well done RED, this is the best I've seen to date!

Does anyone know what type of mic they were using on the interiors?

It seemed to have a pretty wide pickup pattern as they wouldn't follow the actor speaking as long as they were in a 5 foot or so radius..


Love and Aloha, Kalani

Note that Mr. Weingarten and his team were nominated for an Oscar for Best Sound on The Social Network. I've never seen a more dialog-intensive film in my life. The sound is so natural on the film, I think most viewers will miss how complex the dialog mix was -- tons of overlaps, many actors all over the room, and the dialog communicates many complex emotions and story points. Absolutely superb, very subtle job.
