The Roadieographer is an assembled content marketing tool kit for musicians and bands who are looking to step up their game and create consistent professional looking (and sounding) content for themselves, their fans, and their friends. This kit delivers an 'all in one' solution for the DIY musician to create that content without breaking the bank. It is unique in that it gives you the musician the tools to shoot either with Smartphone or Camera and provides you with a backpack to travel effortlessly and store your valuable tools. No other package on the market provides these benefits.
Portability and Security
The Roadieographer kit was created for musicians by musicians with the goal of putting the power of content creation in the hands of those who are creating the art. Creativity is often spontaneous, so being able to set up on the go is very important. The included Benro Tourist Backpack allows you to keep all of your valuable devices in 1 easily accessible place.
Flexibility and Stability
As many of us have invested so much into our instruments and other gear, often there is not a lot of money left for extras. In many cases that includes not being able to invest in a professional camera. However, these days most of us own some sort of Smartphone device. Most of these devices have the ability to capture amazing audio, video, and photo content. The Benro PP1 Pocket Pod tabletop tripod/handgrip allows you to stabilize your images and video for Smartphones, Action Cameras, or DSLR/Mirrorless Cameras and other devices. It fits quite comfortably in the hand as well when used as a selfie device or for catching the hard to reach angled shots. Adding a layer of depth and reality to your content.
Also included for flexibility is the all metal machined Saramonic SR-BSP1C Smartphone Clamp. This clamp easily mounts to the PP1 in vertical and horizontal arrays, while keeping your phone locked in and secure in all shooting situations.
Audio for Video and Beyond
As musicians and content creators, one of the most important aspects of content creation for us is audio. Recording yourself or others in loud or soft dynamic environments can be challenging on any device. Having a quality directional microphone is key.
The Saramonic Vmic Mini is an extremely compact and lightweight on-camera cardioid condenser microphone that mounts directly to the included Saramonic SR-BSP1C Smartphone Clamp, DSLR/Mirrorless cameras, or any other device with a cold-shoe mount that provides plug-in power (no batteries required). It enables you to easily capture broadcast-quality sound at the source. It can be connected to cameras and recording devices with the included TRS cable and to smartphones and tablets with the included TRRS cable (For iOS Lightning or USB-C, you will need a dongle, not included). Vmic Mini dramatically improves the sound quality of your mobile productions whether they be a video or just audio.
The all metal construction, precision cut body and unique shock mount make this microphone incredibly robust and durable. Its ultra-compact size allows the mic to be placed in areas that larger shogun/pencil condenser mics just won't fit. If you're shooting outside, remember to place the included double thick foam windscreen over the mic before shooting. This will protect your mic from wind and weather.
