I Use a mirror to see the host and the subject (myself) in an interview in which I explain the lighting & mirror setup. This setup saves the reverse camera & editing. Great for fast, low-budget interviews where you want to see the host too. This is a quickie video for my web friends. The Light Like A Pro video lighting tutorials on DVD have more comprehensive content with higher production values. http://www.lightlikeapro.com

THINK, THIS KIND OF TRICKS WERE USED IN PAST IN PAINTINGS OF LARGE AND VERY ACCURATE IMAGES WE ARE IMPRESSED WITH TODAY.

GOOD IDEA. Also of course there's always bunching yourselves together on a bench to both be in the shot.
But then to look natural it'd be all profile shots, as people face each other to talk.
Your idea is great as the interviewer can be face on, smaller than the subject, as if across the world on satellite, both face on!

I think interviewer and interviewee should always be same frame.

It's a good way to conduct a 'Low Budget" interview if you don't have a 2 camera setup with a switcher. This is for all of you cheap skates who like to criticize others only because they are productive, and you just talk about it. You either don't have the funds, or the brains to put together anything close to this.

I certainly understand why you are in front in this video. But in an actual interview, I believe the person being interviewed should be seen in front and in focus. Your audiences will relax, I predict, when this protocol is followed.

Actually, yes, the intention here was to represent the interviewer as the background "soft focus" person and the interview subject in front.

Any way to focus her image a little better?
borderm3 1 year ago
@borderm3
Only by using more light or a faster lens. This method is not a replacement for a two-camera shoot.

Damn, she is hot! Very elegant. Bring her up front and let's see her some more.
