I'd be recording dialog, on location, with (ideally) a deep and rich natur=
al soundscape. I want the listener to feel like they are there.
Possible, but difficult and probably not worth the trouble to try to be pur=
ist about it. I've tried it at the beach, I've tried it in a forest. Record=
ing clean, crisp dialogue is a demanding task in itself. Trying to get a go=
od mix of ambience at the same time is nearly impossible.
The film recordists that I do repairs for get their best dialogue with a hy=
percardioid mic on a boom overhead--Schoeps preferred, MKH 416 where it's h=
umid. The desired ambience is mixed in post-production.
"Feeling like you are there" is the effect of a good mix.
