Anton and the red chimera
“Anton” marks the final film of Zaza Urushadze, who received an Oscar nomination. The story unfolds in 1919 within the tranquil German colony of Hildendorf, located near Odessa. Residing there is the unassuming German family consisting of Nicholas, Christina, and their children: the eldest, Johan, ten-year-old Anton, and his younger sister Emma. However, their peaceful existence is disrupted with the arrival of the Bolsheviks, ushering in a period of hunger and death. Through the eyes of Anton and his friend Jacob, who is only beginning to grasp the complexities of life, we witness these tumultuous events.

Lectrosonics HMa Plug-On BOOM 1
The HMa from Lectrosonics is a UHF plug-on transmitter that accepts mic or line-level signals via a standard XLR connector. It has selectable 5, 15, & 48V phantom power and can be used when paired with a Lectrosonics receiver and handheld microphone.
The input amplifier of the HMa transmitter uses an ultra-low noise op-amp for quiet operation and is gain controlled with a wide range dual envelope limiter. A 24-bit A to D converter digitizes the audio, and filters the supersonic noise above 21 kHz. The resulting signal is encoded with a proprietary algorithm to produce an analog data signal for RF transmission.
Featuring a wide tuning range of 76 MHz, with tuning steps in increments of 100 kHz or 25 kHz for up to 3072 frequencies, the HMa transmitter also covers three standard 25.6 MHz Lectrosonics frequency blocks. Each block provides 256 different pilot tone frequencies.

The M and S outputs are presented separately for external manipulation as required, either by a suitable MS to AB matrix, or using three channels, with phase switches, of a mixer: This allows control of the balance between the mono information from the M capsule and the spatial information from the side channel. The super cardioid response gives increased directivity for the ‘M’ signal. The compact dimensions, ‘very good consonant clarity and good spatial representation’ make it ‘ideally suited for every type of application in film, radio, television and reporting, both indoors and outdoors’. Sturdy and ‘very weather-resistant’ the 418 has ‘very low noise, high sensitivity’ and a transformer-less balanced output. The matt-black metal casing has a male 5-pin XLR connector.
