On a recent Saturday I packed up my proton packs into Ecto 1 and headed up to Baltimore to shoot a video on Ghost Hunting. As I loaded my equipment into the public library--we were filming the audio in a conference room there--I realized I had to curb the urge to ask about Gozer, and try to force Ray Parker Jr. to stop performing in my noggin.
Now, admittedly I know nothing about ghosts except that they are sometimes made out of giant marshmallows, so I felt I had some learning ahead. I soon spotted the expert Vince Wilson dressed as I would imagine an archaeologist, lugging around just as much equipment as myself. Over the next 
couple hours Vince discussed everything from EMF meters to cold spots. I won't go into too much detail here, as you might as well just watch the video. I also learned that when you shoot a ghost hunting video normal audio malfunctions sound a little bit more like screams.
After getting our audio completed we headed over to Edgar Allen Poe's grave, located in downtown Baltimore. Here in the backyard of a historic church lies Edgar's original burial site, as well as Mr. Poe himself, in a fancy new grave site near the entrance. The history behind Poe's burial is as interesting as the location. The original headstone, and the only one his family could afford, was destroyed in a freak train accident. He rested in an unmarked grave until a group of Baltimore teachers gathered enough money to have a proper headstone attached.
To cap off the shoot, We went underneath the church into the catacombs to film about half of the b-roll that will appear in the final video. The shoot was incredibly fun, and educating, and even a bit scary--for just a second.
