Production Context.
Refugee camp access: filming in Kara Tepe and the former Moria camp required a discreet, respectful and low-profile sound approach in a highly sensitive documentary environment.
Host-led investigative workflow: the presenter’s pace and the demands of field reporting left very little room for delay or reset during on-location filming.
Formal and politically sensitive interviews required a clean, low-profile location sound setup that could be deployed quickly without drawing attention.
Backup equipment was carried across the shoot, since once outside Athens there is often no nearby rental solution in case of failure when filming in Greece.
