it works a lot better in higher-than-youtube quality!
It's an impressive clip - I'm going to do some stuff like this as my final year project at Uni.

Hehe ... fun clip, interesting experience.
Reminds me of the gimicky quadraphonic LPs of yore. PDT_008

Great stuff - I'm sure I felt his breath when he whispers in the ear!

Very impressive. Slightly creepy too.

is it just me or am I the only one that can't get a mental picture of these guys without thinking they look just like Borat?

Very impressive. Slightly creepy too.
The scissors and clippers...very unsettling! :)

Yeah. Thank god they didn,'t include an old fashioned shave.

they call that binaural recording, don't they? i believe you can get dedicated mic sets and even dummy heads with the correct mass and density, i.e. the same as a human head. Brendan O'Brien, i believe, uses the technique quite a lot, hence the Pearl Jam album Binaural which he produced. seem to recall reading an article about it in Sound On Sound magazine a few years ago.
unfortunately i'm one of those people for whom it doeasn't quite work. that barber shop clip is amazing! but when he moves around the front i percieve him as passing above my head between my ears. apparently some people just can't "detect" the forward sounds in a binaural recording. :( apart from that, fabulous!vv :D

Yea, the Neumann Dummy Head, and the Jecklin mic technique are just two ways of capturing that kind of sound :) The way the dummy head works, is by emulating a human ear, with average sizes for the pinnae and ear canal, so if you're outside of that average by a certain amount, then the effect won't really work. The Jecklin technique works by just having two mics separated by an acoustic barrier, and because they're not emulating the shape of the ear (just the position), it works for pretty much everyone, just not quite as good as the dummy head.

It made me jump the first time I listened to it, the bit where he whispers in your ear :lol:
-
:lol: :lol: :lol:
I've heard of people falling off the chair at that moment.

i didn't like the whisper thing freaky.
