You’re too clean like.lasagna😂

[@HopeMkunte]

I stumbled on this video like someone who stubs their toe against the corner of a chair, but there was no pain. Thanks man

[@KeepitMovingTV1211]

Be too

[@nosborlliw]

This content is the purest gold I’ve found today

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@malcomshootseverything]

I can't believe it! Someone actually covered audio in their video tutorial! With good tips as well! Well done, great video Kofi! I've sub'd!

[@KofiYeboah]

Wait is that uncommon ?

[@malcomshootseverything]

In my opinion, hugely uncommon. Many interview videos miss it entirely, and can’t think of another one that leads with it! I’m a sound guy, so maybe I’m a bit sensitive to it, but I appreciated the importance you put on the topic a lot!

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks a lot !!

[@sharpmortgagegroup3681]

Can't tell you how helpful all your videos have been. I'm doing simple videos for my mortgage business but branching out into doing videos for others because of what I've learned watching you. So helpful and to the point. Love it man, thanks!

[@KofiYeboah]

We love to hear it !!

[@PorshiaVonne]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video 👍🏾

[@KofiYeboah]

Thank you b

[@sidebusinessbloke]

Another tip is to mirror your shot and zoom in - looks like a completely different camera and no need to reshoot! Only works if there’s no words or patterns in shot that would make it obvious that it’s mirrored. Great video! I’d never actually thought about making sure the wardrobe contrasts with the background, I’ve probably worn white in front of a white bg way too many times! 😅

[@KofiYeboah]

Ahaha it’s a lil 🔑 that can help!

[@Woutermannetje]

Sorry, but I think that is a bad idea for two reasons. One: it will look weird because hardly any face is perfectly symmetrical. Two: you are breaking the 180-degree rule and can therefore cause confusion.

[@albertandco]

for viewers' sake - don't mirror, please )

[@najaff_khan]

Yes👍 but its works well only on close ups.

[@MadMonkMani]

I saw one of your videos back in the day and thought it was killer. Must have been on a youtube account I don't frequent. I've since rediscovered and don't understand how you don't have more subscribers. The value you bring is awesome. Thank you.

[@KofiYeboah]

Ahah i gotta earn my stripes and I’m totally okay with that 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@hypestationtvng]

Great insight. Another thing to add is that while keeping your camera shooting to the side and you the interviewer is in front of the subject, do well to sit down while doing that. That allows the subject to have an eye level that doesn't seem like he or she is looking up.

[@pasteurguillaume5428]

I'm gonna have a 1 cam interview in 3 days and I'll definitly use your tips to make it dynamic ! This video is a blessing, thank you so much dude !

[@KofiYeboah]

Anytime !

[@Videofilealways]

This is your ‘breakthrough’ video brother - so helpful for beginners

[@KofiYeboah]

Thank you !!

[@ideaplusagency]

LOVE the "fake slider" technique!

[@KofiYeboah]

Works like a charm 🙏🏾

[@Jakereviewsall]

I do not do interviews but I do own the FX30 and was curious, learned a couple of things though that I might be able to use.

[@KofiYeboah]

That’s unreal that it helped 🙏🏾

[@avilionstars]

dude i learned SO much from this one video alone, thanks for putting this out for free

[@KofiYeboah]

Oh that’s fire , thanks!

[@tonyfphotography]

That keyframe fake slider tip is CLUTCH! I often use the 4K punch-in strategy, but definitely going to implement this keyframe fake slider tip on my next shoot Thursday. Great value video!

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks !!

[@danielromagnoligoncalvss]

I’ve been watching your videos for months and I’ve learned so much. Thanks for your content!

[@KofiYeboah]

My pleasure! Appreciate it homie !

[@dunkley7776]

Superb tips! I understand the value you dropped in this video and people pay so much money to learn this in college and you dropped this for free. Subscribed, great content sir.

[@KofiYeboah]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@Haya_Duke]

Kofi, I’m proud of you cos you’re real - true to your roots

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks ! I love my feet chats but it has to be functional

[@Guirren]

Not sure how you got only 10k subs, the production quality as well as value provided is really top notch. Thanks for these tips and all the best for future videos!

[@KofiYeboah]

Aha I’m just earning my stripes !

[@balazshorvathca]

Wow Kofi. First video I watch after Mark brought you more awareness in his newsletter. You got me man. Such beautiful work. Subscribed!

[@KofiYeboah]

Thank you ! I appreciate it 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@gbwalther3198]

Great practical tutorial for the "one man band," sole camera operator in the real documentary world where one often also wants to go low key and get the talent to be relaxed & share what's on their heart. Thanks Kofi for all the work u put into making this & sharing it with us. Wish we had more stuff like this on you tube channels. 😎😎

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks !!! I’ll try to keep it coming ☺️

[@gbwalther3198]

@@KofiYeboah Great. Wil be looking forward to more of them. 😎😎

You’re welcome !

[@kodewilliams]

Earned a new sub from me today man. This is lovely value for any stage of the production journey!

[@KofiYeboah]

Absolutely!!

[@stevenbrutosky521]

Really enjoyed this video. Really like you calm demeanor. Good job.

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks !

[@DynamicLearning4u]

Nice, many of us just use a teleprompter for consistent answers for multiple retakes while moving the camera into different angles.

[@KofiYeboah]

That’s also a good way to go!

[@ProfessorStix]

This just answered all my questions in one video! Goated!!!

[@KofiYeboah]

Ayy glad I can help !

[@TailoredTechnique]

Such awesome content as always bro

[@KofiYeboah]

No problem my guy!

[@mrr_cheese]

Gosh Kofi, when are you touching down (Ghana). I'm following you on all platforms. Too good of a content to be true. You are literally serving as a great motivation to me. 🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥

Realmente es un gran trabajo el que haz hecho. Muchas gracias amigo Kofi. Cuando yo vaya a EEUU o tú estés en Chile, te invitaré una cerveza. Saludos enormes desde Santiago de Chile (Latin-America).

Aha converting one person at a time 🫡

[@evmathison]

Amazing video. I make documentaries for the BBC and interviews are huge part of what we do, all these tips are great. Your interview set ups are amazing. Might have to pick up one of those Zhiyun’s for a back light!

[@KofiYeboah]

Ahah thanks ! Give it a shot !

[@nickoliver1137]

I do many of these tactics all the time but never realized how I could adjust my workflow until watching this. Awesome content as always!

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks !!

[@mygconsultingyou]

Good stuff bro. I use most of the techniques but the moving the camera and re asking the question is gold!!

[@musasoyyo]

So much value in this video, it's powerfully knowledge and clearly explained. Thank you very much.

[@KofiYeboah]

No problem! Anytime !

[@ViciousXUSMC]

I liked this video, thought it was easy to listen to and had good information. I usually use my light to fill from natural light rather than add to it at a lower intensity, but thats artistic choice!

[@KofiYeboah]

To each their own! Thanks a lot !

[@MikeCreefProd]

As someone who shoots solo interviews, this was helpful! You got a new subscriber!

Likewise mr stark! Love your wedding work man 🙏🏾🙏🏾

@@KofiYeboah 😂😂 I’m doing some new stuff today around interviews at a wedding so watching this got me inspired. You know how it is, good old “am I even good” creeping in just before a shoot 😂

[@KofiYeboah]

The best advice I ever got was “the worlds best teachers only need to be one lesson ahead of the class” Keep on moving brother, you’re doing gods work

[@ChipDizard]

Great tips and a reminder for us who have done this for a while.

[@KofiYeboah]

Yeah ! Like it’s not a novel idea, I just wanted to consolidate all that I know in one video hah

[@Slowsteading]

So much knowledge in one video, thanks for sharing!

[@shanemulvey4065]

Superb video Kofi, incredibly detailed and useful. I've liked and subscribed.

[@KofiYeboah]

Thanks !!

[@Victor-Rojas]

Great tips. I noticed you were standing up during the interview. It's best practice to sit and be at eye level if the interviewee is sitting down to match your eyeline.

[@KofiYeboah]

I was actually sitting in the actual interview, the standing part was just b roll, I was entirely talking about something else ahah

[@Victor-Rojas]

@@KofiYeboah Ahhh..makes sense. Keep up the FX30 vids!

[@RemyRAD]

Hey! This is one well-rounded Pro here! This guy is tops! He knows exactly what he's talking about. And it is so well presented here. Complete with video clips of examples.. Synchronized with what he is talking about. In the most professional, production manners. You rarely see a tutorial/educational video. By an established Pro. Like this guy. I know. I spent a couple of decades as a Senior Broadcast Engineer for NBC-TV. And so, I know. I've been doing this for over 50 years. And this guy is right on the mark! It's so refreshing, to hear somebody like him. With such a well-thought-out, well enunciated, well articulated, thorough professional tutorial. This is the real deal. This man speaks Truth. He knows what there is to be known. In a deep, well-educated, highly skilled, totally professional manner. His audio is perfect. His exposures are perfect. The lighting is perfect. And he is rather abundantly handsome. With such a lovely delivery and demeanor. They don't get more professional than this guy. I can hardly say enough about this guy and his KZbin channel! And I just fell in here. As a professional, now retired, myself. At 67 years of age. And always looking, always searching, to learn more. Our quest for knowledge is never-ending. And every now and then you find a good one! Because there are so many other truly poor examples out there on KZbin. I rarely come across a guy like this. There are those, sure. But there are so many others, not worthy. Good show old boy. Was that politically incorrect? RamyRAD
