I did have the pleasure of expending some time with Agnes. Though the barriers of languages was against us we learn a lot from each other and the problems of movie making in the 60s. Lovely woman!

thanks for the reply the lectures are interesting and I think valuabl for the experience alone, a lot more fun than many I had : )The recording Mics I was thinking of were boom or jacket nics which were out and used in '04.' but point is mute, excellent choice to upload and I've enjoyed those I've seen so far : )

thank you for the comment. as written and stated before: the main target of the lectures are and were the students of the media and communication program. in 2004 there was no youtube or similar portal - still, egs has recorded the lectures and prepared for an uncertain future.

kinda interesting that this is about film making as such yet nobody uses the correct type of microphone to ensure it records well. no offence meant..interesting lectures though, thanks for uploads.
