Location
In the heart of the Czech Republic, our cameraman was tasked with shooting an interview with Enetiqa in Prague. Equipped with two Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4Ks and soft lighting, the shoot was destined for success.
Approach
The interviewee was seated in a modern office, and the cameraman strategically positioned the A-cam to capture the interviewee’s face and the B-cam to focus on the hands during the conversation. This classic A-B camera setup allowed for a seamless viewing experience, with the audience feeling as if they were a part of the conversation.
The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4Ks were the perfect choice for this shoot, as they allowed for stunning 4K footage with a wide dynamic range. The cameras were also lightweight and easy to maneuver, which was especially useful when it came to capturing the interviewee’s gestures and expressions.
Lighting
To ensure the interviewee was lit properly, the cameraman used soft lighting to create a flattering and natural-looking effect. The soft lighting also helped to reduce any harsh shadows or highlights that could have distracted from the interviewee’s message.
Throughout the shoot, the cameraman remained focused and attentive to every detail, from the interviewee’s body language to the background noise. He was able to anticipate the needs of the editor, ensuring that they had all the necessary footage to create a cohesive and engaging final product. Our camera operator in Prague also connected the live feed to the Zoom so our agency can remotely manage the content.
Thanks to the expertise of our cameraman, the interview was a resounding success. The resulting footage was stunning, with crisp audio and vivid visuals that captured the essence of the conversation. This shoot serves as a testament to the power of quality equipment, strategic planning, and an experienced cameraman who knows how to get the shot.
