Production

Murderball was shot on a low budget. The main camera used was a Panasonic AG-DVX100; a Sony PD150 was used to shoot some of the early interviews. The crew rigged a Sennheiser shotgun microphone to use as a boom and relied heavily on lavalier wireless microphones as well. Available lighting was used almost exclusively. Additional light was provided using an inexpensive china ball.
