So I am the GM of a local water district. We had a gentleman who filmed our board meetings that recently retired. Rather than have someone else come in and setup/teardown at every single one of our meetings, I would like to set up 3 video cameras that would be mounted permanently that would allow me to record the meetings from now on at which point I can sync audio and the camera I want in the final video through editing software. Please give me some thoughts/experience on what type/brand of cameras i should buy and mount with the above in mind; how I record the video and get said video into editing software; what type of digital audio recorder is good for something like this to sync audio during editing; and the best editing software software that I can purchase that will run on a MAC or PC without having to buy a special computer. I currently have a 12 channel Yamaha mixer (4 auxiliary feeds) with 10 Shure gooseneck style mics in front of each of the board members and staff and 1 wireless Shure mic located at a podium for the public to use to ask questions one at a time. PS, the more discreet the cameras can look, possibly closer to a security camera appearance if possible, the better! These cameras won’t be moved once installed. The room all this is going in is about 30’ x 30’. The quality of the video and audio needs to be clear, allowing someone to make out a face while clearly hearing the audio, but while it would be nice, it doesn’t have to be movie quality Thank you in advance for whoever can help out!
