I know this is a quite vauge question, so I’ll try out and be a bit much more distinct.
When I am filming reside gigs, the clarity of the footage of my camcorder (A quite reduced-end Samsung VP-D381 with equally lousy specs) is underpar outcomes.
Anyone got any recommendations to improve the following?:
I noticed that the colours on the footage are washed out, even when I have adjusted the camcorder settings to the very best of what I can get it, any way I can make my camcorder characteristic stronger colours?
My inbuilt mic is at very best acceptable. A typical feat which is amongst low-finish camcorders and I cant use an external mic. So, instead, any suggestions on in which to position the camcorder to get the best audio reproduction, bar utilizing an external mic and audio overlay?
The lighting is constantly under par when I am filming, even when I have opened the iris and did the greatest in my settings. The outcomes produce a grainy outcome.
Any ideas I can enhance the final results using a portable setup, I genuinely would like a a lot more polished, much less amateurish production.
(NB: Comment if you would like additional details).

Colours will appear like that when recording in dark problems. filming at “gigs” your camera will record in reasonably low light three LUX, but as the light contrasts are so various, IE stage lighting, spots, distance from stage, all add up and minimize the high quality.
You can try out to get closer to the stage, it might help. Even with a Increased finish camcorder you are nevertheless going to struggle, but there might be far more control on the exposure settings.
audio is often a problem, even with increased finish camcorders, the audio pick up is intended for so several environments, which sadly makes them not great at something.
The issue is that except if you can get permission to record at the gigs, you are going to find it impossible to get good video/audio. as you most likely by no means be in the proper position, not able to use a tripod, or external audio recording equipment (as you can’t connect a mic to your camera).
Though the authentic video is practically not possible to enhance (not with out a lot of function) some cleaver editing can make a reasonably entertaining video. Filming is this sort of atmosphere is always challenging, but with the proper gear and a small manage of the lighting, its not not possible, as a individual in the audience just by obtaining a far better camcorder, could assist a tiny.
