Something I learned while getting the news is that if all else fails...improvise. There is never a perfect sitution to this. You will have to encounter some obstalce that will add an some gray hairs to you head. Whether it's a broken bulb in the light during the interview, the IFB dropping out before the shot, or carting the audio somewhere other than the booth. You have to try to be prepared for any and everything. Never hurts to have your improtu audio set up ready to go on Capital Hill. Never know when some lawmaker is going to go on a rant when it's time to edit for the news.Time to stock up on some gaffer tape and chewing gum.
Special thanks to Kevin Johnson & b-roll.net for the picture.
