#Cinematic #Interviews #HowTo

[@seppmartti]

Summary: 1. Scout location (visually interesting; depth; if possible avoid visual background unrelated to story; leading lines) 2. Camera placement (camera height, position, and perspective to person; framing) 2.5. Camera settings. FPS. For TV, Broadcast, cinema? For KZbin? Shutter speed for optimal motion blur 1/(FPS * 2) 3. Key light (Forward grid fabric for light - no double shadow, spill) 4. Back light (Separate subject from background, create three dimensional image) 5. Background light (Add color? Create contrast? Teal and orange?) 6. Light with practicals (Use set lamps and lights to make shot more interesting; use dimmer to dim practical lights or expose shot using them so they don't ruin lightning setup) 7. Set decoration (Bring set alive - add production elements, stuff related to story; remove distracting stuff; use brightness to guide the eye) 8. Second camera (Subjects don't give perfect answers and responses; Second angle means easier to edit, talent seems more knowledgeable and comfortable; same camera manufacturer means same color science) 9. Audio setup (Don't dip into shot; shotguns generally outdoors; cardioid or hyper indoors; boom pole shadows; point mic not to mouth but chest because of head sloping; room audio echo - sound blankets and good carpet or sound blanket on ground) 10. Talk to subject (Comfortable talent; be quiet at times for cleaner sound bites, give gap to finish. Remind subject to repeat the question in their answer)

[@dailynews4669]

Thanku man

[@Moranah]

Saved me 20 minutes of my life, good summary, and I probably knew 9 out of 10 already. Except pointing mic's at chest was new. Thanks!

[@vinaysmain]

Thanks buddy saved 15.30 mins

[@MrGoocheck]

Literally love you

[@shanefiddle]

Great summary, copying this and saving for later reference. I found the video covered things I had already "learned", but they did a really good job of demonstrating how to implement these ideas in a real world setting with *challenging* conditions - I'm not sure I would have done as good a job as they did of setting up such a beautiful shot and good sounding audio. The summary above will be really useful to bring these back to mind. Thanks!

[@edarelius99]

the tip about letting people finish what they are saying is the single best tip I could give for an interviewer. As a photojournalist having to edit a sound bite that you can hear the reporter stepping on is one of the most annoying things during the edit

[@vincenzobrunoreportage]

totally feel you, brother in job.

[@oneworldvideo]

Same goes for editing wedding vows! Can't stand when the priest talks over the bride and groom, not even giving them time to finish their short 3 word phrases.

[@BoostedMPLS]

Ive done this before in my videos and I second this comment

[@mhensen1]

Word, totally agree, and the uh uh

[@jamesm.williams969]

Agreed! Oh man, when I have somebody on set/location that jumps in as soon as they finish with "uhuh, okay great!...." or throughout the interview says "yup, okay, yeah, huhuh" ......I just have to politely but firmly tell them to STFU!

[@dadverb]

Holy crap, this is pure gold. In 20-minutes this video summed up everything I had to learn the hard way since 2012. I made every mistake possible from framing, lighting, talking over my interviewee, etc. This rundown is so incredibly informative to any budding videographer/KZbinr and even has nuggets of wisdom in it for experienced folks like myself. We're never done learning! Yet again, wonderful work, Indy Mogul.

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

Well said...

[@DPJeffFeller]

this is a terribly lit and terribly composed interview

[@SandyChase]

Couple suggestions: Find out the interviewee’s height and do setup with a stand in/assistant. When interviewing, make sure you’re at the same height as the interviewee so they’re not looking up or down. Shoot main angle at higher resolution so you can punch in when you cut back to that angle for a tighter framing if you want it. Monitor audio. Record 1 min of room tone. Your editor will thank you.

[@dadverb]

Spot on. All super helpful additional tips right here.

[@T1Media.ireland]

can you explain why recording 1 min of room tone with help? is it that the editor knows what frequencies to cut and eq out? thanks!

[@SandyChase]

T1 photography When editing dialogue, you often manipulate the spacing between spoken phrases. You may cut parts of two sentences together, remove long pauses, etc. Cutting between 2 camera angles or covering the talking head with B-roll or cutaways hides those changes. (If you just stay on the one shot but cut it up, you get jump cuts.) If you need space between spoken phrases, having absolutely no audio sounds jarring since we’ve gotten used to hearing the ambiance of the room. So you fill that space with room tone: no talking but just the ambient room sound. It’ll make sense when you do it and hear it for yourself!

[@SandyChase]

T1 photography Also, you can use it as a reference for noise reduction. In truth you probably only need about 10 seconds, but people may be fidgeting or a car drives by or something, and you really want a stretch that has that baseline background sound to use as filler, so a minute is a safe clip.

[@joythought]

Great tips though the room tone is usually available in the takes themselves and as sound post tools keep improving they are now adapting to live changes in background noise which makes recording the tone sweet but likely to not be used.

[@clarkkegley]

Fantastic video. Learned a ton -- fun dynamic between you guys!

[@TylerLeeKenyon]

This is the best interview "how to" video I've seen. It's very nice to see you cover all aspects of the process rather than just the cinematography.

[@guitarmadeez]

Thanks a lot! This video was soooo helpful and well done!

[@cedricpaulhiac2363]

For the talent's sake, consider using a polarizing filter to kill those unflattering reflections from the key light. You do need to make sure it is not only screwed on your lens but also spun in the position where it's pattern will be most effective in killing the reflections. You then have to compensate the exposure by adding about a stop and a half of light (either by increasing your key light or by bringing it closer, either by bumping up the ISO of the camera). This works like a charm especially if you do not have a make-up artist (although you should still use it in combination with make-up).

[@DroiMedia]

This is such a comprehensive guide for interview filming - great tips!!! 😘

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

Wasn't it awesome? Totally agree

[@williamhill7759]

Good work! Not often we get to see the process from conception to execution. I'm interviewing for the next four weeks and have learned a lot from your video.

[@hbl_channel]

This video is perfect! Thank you. The kind of video I’ve been looking for. Perfect for my limited knowledge in interview setups using dslr and limited audio and light equipment.

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

He has always had really good content in his videos... I've seen him interview guys I follow and so today I decided to also follow him!!!

[@DavidColemanFilms]

Try to ask questions which begin with: "WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY OR HOW". The interviewee will then give a full answer. If your question begins with: IS, DID, HAVE, WILL or ARE, the interviewee can answer yes or no.. If they are a willing interviewee they will expand on the YES or NO. Even so there will still be a YES or NO at the beginning of the answer which may make editing a little more awkward if you want to remove the questions from the final film.

Thank you for the insights!

[@maxek46]

Aka open or closed questions IIRC! Another great way to get around it is to say things like 'talk me through what happened' or 'tell me about this'. It sets them up for storytelling mode :p

[@JHJohnson]

Probably the best video on learning how to video interviews. I would love to see a follow up on how you edited this video

[@Rob4Films]

Nice job guys, really enjoyed it. I do a lot of interviews for my film class and I can use this video as an example.

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

Good Idea

[@dreamysleepyzzz]

im a intermediate shooting guy, and most of the time, whenever i have to prepare a shooting, i always search on youtube and find ur vidoes, this channel have help me through from shooting indoor outdoor shooting, product shooting, interview brarara to editing...etc, not only it gives out tons of tips, but mainly, it gives me confident to be ready to shoot. Thank you or your team so much !

[@demobailey881]

This is one of the best videos about interview setup i've seen. Thanks guys! I recently got a Canon EOS R and love it for film! EOS R's are actually mirrorless for anyone looking to get one.

[@BabyBearRudy]

Wow that quick tip about mic being pointed at the chest and not the mouth is really great!! Thanks for the info!

[@packardjennings]

Great video! To add a couple of things that I find helpful: A) It is great to have a stand in for your talent. That way they are not sitting in the chair while you set everything up. B) Be making your talent comfortable as soon as they arrive. Chat casually and explain things. C) Some makeup helps. She looks shiny. HD powder is pretty neutral. In a pinch, try a coffee filter to wipe down shiny face. D) When your talent is trying to do full statements that are pre-written, have a teleprompter if they can sound and look natural. Otherwise, remind them to complete each chunk of dialogue, even if they flub it. People tend to stop talking when they mess up and they get tense. Finishing their statement every time helps them relax.

[@rhondasawchuk3175]

I really enjoyed that!! Very informative, good examples and super fun. You can tell everyone enjoys what they do.

[@AndyHutchinsons]

Terrific advice - thanks so much to Casey and Andrew for sharing their knowledge.

[@themikereda]

Probably also a good idea to have translucent powder and some makeup sponges handy. People on camera tend to sweat and that leads to shine and that never looks good in an interview. Some translucent powder goes on clear and blends with just about any skin tone.

[@CaseyMcBeath1]

Mike Reda damn, pro tip over here! Absolutely true. I tend not to have to deal with make up too much, so I quickly forget it. But more than a few times I’ve had to break out some paper towels to blot a persons face a little dryer

[@frankfeng2701]

For slider, GVM motorized slider 48" can be bought for $360 and you don't need a phone to control the parallex effect.

[@omarwilliams5688]

I have learned MORE in this single video then I have in the 27 videos I seen on how to shoot interview style. Alright Alright Alright!! Thanks Guys

[@GwilymJames]

The hardest thing is making the interviewee comfortable on camera. Most people are not used to it, and get very nervous and end up looking at the lens, at the camera person etc. I always remind them to smile way more than usual since low energy comes across very badly on camera.

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

That's the worst!!! I am having a hard time with some of my interviewees on keeping them looking at the interviewer. I hate to stop the flow of the conversation to remind them to not look at me or the camera, lol...

[@beachcomberfilms8615]

I start talking with them while the setup is going on and build rapport with just regular conversation, make them laugh or have them tell a story, that way they aren't thinking about the camera when it comes time to roll and then the conversation just continues, they don't even think about the camera.

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

@@beachcomberfilms8615 That's a good idea, thnx

[@joythought]

Be comfortable yourself. Let them know that you'll just be using the good parts. Tell them we can keep it as brief or long as needed and we can pause any time they need to. I also like to warn people the process can feel a little stop start as we need to make sure technical issues are addressed. Then don't make a big deal of saying "Action", just say " Let's roll" and sound and camera should both answer "rolling" once the devices are all rolling. Then in a causal way talk with the interviewee. And if you're the interviewer I still find it best to have earphones in so I can hear what's sounding good. Helps when there's noise and I can decide if the noise is something I can fix in post.

[@jameldecasseres8638]

[@DekiaryCarter]

This is THE BEST how to shoot an interview video I have seen! Thank you!

[@samrodshenassa978]

Generally good tips, but I have some additional points: • At 9:26, the grey cabinet covered in stickers is a distraction in the background and may need blurring the logos. The light protruding from behind her head in the blue hallway is also a distraction. Generally want to avoid objects protruding from subjects' heads. • Personally, I find 3 - 4 fingers of headspace excessive and opt for 1 - 2 myself. • To avoid dealing with boom shadows and blankets to manage sound reflections, I opt for lav mics. If you set them correctly, you avoid fabric rubbing against them, can conceal them, and you don't need a boom operator. You can just leave a shotgun in a static, central place for ambient audio. • Powder her face. • I'd opt for more perspective in the workbench so that the background is less flat. Angle the camera closer to 45 degrees from it than 90. • I'd have her face SLIGHTLY more to the right. Her chest is directly facing the camera. • In a 2 camera setup, I disagree with "never give them a haircut". Sometimes, extreme close-ups, especially when intercut with a medium/wide second camera, are effective for more dramatic or serious interviews.

Thanks for the tutorial!!

[@1031ProductionsLLC]

Same

[@rohan-ghosh]

GREAT VIDEO. Here are few more tips 1. Eliminating the Dreaded "Um" If possible, prepare you subject with the topics or questions a little before hand so that there is little or no "filler speech" - the dreaded “um,” “uh,” “er,” are all filler speeches that can be eliminated to a great degree if the subject knows some of the questions or topics beforehand and are mentally prepared. If you have two cameras, then this issue can be eliminated somewhat in post production. 2. Control the speed of to talking If the subject tends to talk fast - you really cannot tell the individual to slow down. However, you'll notice if you talk slowly - the subject will tend to slow down too. Subconsciously they will try and imitate your speed of thinking. 3. Maintain eye contact Maintain eye contact with your subject. Never let your subject look down for too long (your audience will check out). If you should want to get some more emotion out of your subject, maintain eye contact and be expressive (smile, frown or if its an emotion piece, you'll have to feel free to feel that emotion and....get misty eyed or whatever it takes to remove inhibitions from the subject). 4. Shoot to edit "Shoot to edit" - which means, before you even arrive for your project - know what it entails to make this shoot great! Once you have that plan in your head - you'll keep an eye out for the various pieces of the puzzle that you'll need (audio bites, B Rolls etc) and as you are talking to your subject, make sure to cover all of that in the interview session. Cheers!
