Great Deadcat idea
  • All jokes aside, this actually works really well as a DeadCat/Windsock, and cheap. Seriously, It's now part of my kit.

    Certainly "breaks the ice" when you're doing interviews.

  • That's awesome!!! Anyway we can get some with and without audio samples? I would do that in a heartbeat!!

  • Do you stick the mic into the belly or carry the teddy on your mic ?

  • @Rambo

    I think you made major error.
    You need to reverse the mike, ass must be always towards client.

  • @Vitaliy_Kiselev Great idea! That way they will feel like they're talking into a mirror.

    @Rambo I'd like to hear the sound quality with the stuffing in. I've used the fur from toys after my Great Dane destuffs them, but I always figured the insides would muffle the sound too much.

  • You know...as stupid as this looks....it's actually not a bad idea.

    ....time to go and piss off my 6 year old. :-)

  • @goanna

    ROFL! :D that was a good one

  • Crack me up. You're dead-on, Vitaly!

    Genius, Rambo. Totally genius. I must find a ridiculous creature to use. Hey, what mic ya listening with?

  • Stop this madness before someone uses real dead cat! ;)

  • I have a political event to cover around the 20th. I wonder if I can find a skunk.

  • That is a Sennheiser K6 based, 12'' shotgun. The stuffing is open cell very much like what is in my real Rycote DeadCat.

  • You bastards. I will report you all to the RSPCA.

  • @peternap Though politics and skunks have something in common a two headed snake would be more appropriate especially concerning US federal politics.
