Having shot many interviews myself, I'd like to add my 2 cents. 1. Make sure your subject is angled correctly. (Shoulders not awkward.) Make sure they sit on a stool or something with no visable back. (Should be obvious.) Make sure they aren't looking towards the camera. Just a personal thing, I hate when the subject adresses the camera for most things. 3. lower camera angles are almost always the best. 4. Always use 2 cameras for easy cutting. (You guys covered this.) 5. Make sure your lav Mics are postioned correctly. THIS IS EVERYTHING. Too far or too close and you're screwed. Use proper monitor headphones to check everything! It's weird, but when we do interviews we have two lavs going into the two seperate cameras, just in case. That's about it. Hope it helped!

A few audio tips: If the location has tile, glossy wood or concrete floor, lay a blanket or furniture pad on the floor between the camera and the subject. Also, make sure to record 1 to 3 minutes of "room tone", whether inside or outdoors. This might be needed in post production to clean up or fill in some audio. Great video you guys made!

Some great tips. One slight issue: at 1:39 you encourage the crew to tape cables to the ground (or floor). As a grip and location manager I urge people to put blue paper tape down first, then use the gaffer tape. I was on a shoot in someone's mansion and cables were taken directly onto wood floors. When we wrapped the tape made terrible marks on perfectly aged varnished floors. $1,400 later the floors were back to the way they were, whew!

Brilliant video - thanks! We love filming people looking directly into the camera and so deisgned our own Magic Video Box, which we have just launched as a produce. We have been using it for 5 years with great success as it relaxes people and makes filming fun and easy. It's a simple box with a mirror that sits in front of the camera. We'd love people to know about this as it has considerably changed the way we film.

+Jenny FTOL Thank-you for your suggestion, our production team will consider this for a future project. The setup would be different and more complex to include the interviewer. You might need to double up on lighting, audio gear and cameras. For sit-down interviews in which you need to simultaneously shoot both the subject and the interviewer, you may need to use two cameras. One camera will frame the subject and the other camera, the interviewer. If shooting with one camera then the interviewer and interviewee would need to sit next to each other almost facing each other. Choose a neutral angle showing the relationship between subject and reporter. Please contact us via e-mail if you have additional questions: askbh@bandh.com >Mark

Depending on the size of your team, take into account equipment set-up time, and add this to your interview booking. A two-crew team takes longer to setup than several people, as one person will focus on relaxing the interviewee while the other gets gear ready and checks for issues.

Wonderful tutorial Chase! I liked how you identified the top questions to ask the interviewee while also providing suggestions for how the interviewer should prepare to maximize a positive interview experience. I also enjoyed how to prepare for the little things that can make the difference in minimizing problems which may occur during the interview and in editing. Do you provide additional tutorials on the variety of approaches to use in shooting interviews? For instance, I use an iPhone with a tripod to create raw footage of the top Points of Interest within the San Francisco Bay Area for my KZbin channel, and when the opportunity comes to interview someone, I want to be as prepared as possible. What kind of lighting setup would you recommend if the interview is of a business owner within his/her facility? Keep up the great work! I have subscribed to your channel. I’m in San Francisco. I've created a recent video on the top Points of Interests within the Coombsville wine appellation of Napa Valley that you may enjoy.

To match up multiple cameras make sure to set the exposure and white balance manually at the beginning. Otherwise, auto levels can change during the shoot. Note that some cameras change f/stop when zooming. Note that stools are the best for posture control, easy chairs the worst. If you have to have an easy chair, have them sit on something solid, like a piece of plywood.

Interviews can be with one, two or even three subjects. And each of them works completely differently if you have multiple cameras. On many occassions the interview might be shot by a one man army who looks after the camera, the sound and even anchors the interview. In that case the systems have to be fail-proof. In those situations the dynamics are completely different.

I have no experience with shooting interviews, but I'm shooting 2 this week. What framerate is recommended to film interviews in? 24fps, 25fps or 30fps? And yes, I'll be applying the 180 degree rule.
@BandH
@BandH 5 жыл бұрын
First off are you North America or Europe? The Frame Rate of 25p is PAL for Europe and 30p is NTSC for North America. From there what is the rest of the video being shot in? There are no specific rules for frame rates for interviews. If you are shooting the entire piece in 30p you'd want to shoot the interviews in 30p, the same as if you were shooting the entire piece in 24p. Thanks! -Joey P

Be brave, experiment and dare to be different. Throw that rule book out of the window. Yes I'm aware I'm commenting on a video that's five years old 😂
