Boom operating PDF

http://www.glennbach.com/schurr_boom_art.pdf

Found a good PDF on Boom operation which helped me today on my documentaries group shoot today. Although the PDF gives information on mainly inside locations and dramas, as we were filming a documentary in a abandoned steel factory, I couldn't put some of the tips to use. However, I found the attitude to booming and general sound technicians really helpful, basically saying listen to what the director wants and being constantly on the ball, looking out for problems like creaky floors and such as not to ruin the take.
