Hey there you sick-in-the-head bastards.
Well, we'be been cranking out SNOWMEN HUNTERS for awhile, so it's high time we get around to answering some of the questions we've been getting about how we make the show.
Now, while we can't reveal all ours secrets for um, >cough<legal>cough< reasons, we'll do all we can to let you in on some of how we do what we do.
Here's a few answers to the biggest questions we get: What we shoot on, and what we cut on. We shoot with Panasonic DVX-100s. Ryan has a 100A, I have 100Bs. We've also shot a few interviews (mainly those in the cabin in the first season) with an HVX200, but we're not going balls-out in HD yet.
For sound, we use a big-ass shotgun mike of Ryan's (I think it's a Rhode mike, but I can never remember). For voice, we usually Sennheiser EW-100 G2 wireless mics.
For scripting... we don't have scripts. But I think that's apparent.
As for cutting, well, there we kind of missteped. We cut on PremierePro, which is a great program, but NOBODY uses it. We're transitioning to Macs and Final Cut Studio soon. If you want to know what to buy, buy a Mac and get Final Cut. It's a no-brainer (another indication, besides the show, we're morons).
Now if you've got any other questions... shoot away.
