My son is studying Audio Engineering at college. He's doing an assignment recording a rock band. He has to record the music, do an essay on the recording and supply diagrams photos of this audio set up such as mics etc. He did a recording a few days ago but he forgot to take my digital camera to photograph his mic placements and set up. This left the option of either re recording the band and photographing placements or trying to remember the placements in detail and drawing them.But as the recording went so well he doesn't want to re-record them and asking the band to come back into the studio is not really an option.
But one of the band members had his father make a video of the recording session, which shows the mic placements and set up. And that brings me to my question. Does anybody know how to get photos from a video? Can I hook a video player up to the computer and maybe capture some of the images somehow? I've never tried to do anything like this before but I'm sure somebody out there would know if and how it can be done. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
