Ellie Williams Answers The Call Of The Wild With DPA Microphones Lavaliers

With two decades of experience in filmmaking, Sound Recordist and Natural History Sound Specialist Ellie Williams brings a host of location experience and training, along with a good deal of passion, to every shoot.

Williams' work has taken her to six of the world's continents, for projects with the BBC, Netflix, Apple, National Geographic, Disney, Amazon, PBS and HBO, as well as the White House.

A longtime DPA Microphones user, Williams has deployed the brand's 6060 CORE Subminiature Lavaliers for a multitude of unconventional outdoor applications. From recording sounds of nature and wildlife, to interviews with substantial figures, Williams utilises the microphones for creative and authentic sound capture.

"The DPA 6060 microphones are absolutely brilliant; I adore them," she said. "The warmth and depth they give off is unbeatable. I won’t use any other lavalier mics."

Williams has also found that the DPA 6060s ensure that she can subtly get microphones right into the heart of the action, while still capturing pristine audio in less conventional film settings. This includes her work on the Apple TV documentary 'Earthsounds', for which she was tasked with capturing the sounds of elephant seals in their natural habitat.
