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!
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! 😅
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.
Hello, thanks a lot for the video! I will do a two people sitting TH-cam podcast interview using one camera. Should I get 16mm f/1.4 or 2.8? Thanks !!!
Very funny! You said something with the word, out, in your sentence. It sounded more like oat. And I was wondering is that Canadian accent? Until I looked at your About page. Yup! Canadian! And I caught it only on that one word. No wonder you seem so competent. You're a fucking Canadian! LMAO. You guys are good. RamyRAD
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).
Hey, what would you say for single cameras set up by multiple people in different locations as to why a particular person should win a nomination? would you place them like a talking head?
@@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 😂
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!
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!
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.
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!
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.
Really good video and I appreciate your thoughts on the FX30, which I am researching. However, this is tough for me to call this a way to film “multicam”. I was intrigued by the title and wanted to check it out. But not to split hairs…..I usually consider a multicam shoot a way to actually sync the cams. And there is no way to “sync” in post when doing interviews like this. I would say, just film in 4k and maybe have your iPhone as a super wide and away B Cam to cut away with. Maybe even make that B cam black and white or something. Again, nice video. 👍🏻
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!
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!
Awesome video, very informative! I've found getting ear muff covers for the headphones I'm using helps to prolong their life after they start getting worn out
The hard part for me is describing to your client that it will take an hour or so of setup and reshoots and b roll shots and all of that for 5-10 minute video. They often think it’s going to take 10 minutes. And you are doing like 4 jobs in one and it’s still not enough for them since they don’t know how long editing can take etc. 😂
Honestly, I just frame it as a means to an end to have he best product possible, plus , Im assuming you already got your non refundable deposit, they stuck with you bruh
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.
Great video Kofi 👏 I have the opportunity in two weeks to interview a legendary German singer shortly before the sound check at a concert for a documentary. I actually want to make the sound through my Sennheisser lav microphones, but I have problems getting a clear sound in combination with the FX6 🥴 I think I entered something wrong in the menu setting in the FX6 🤔 how are your audio settings with the FX6 in such a case? best cinematic greetings from germany
I've been preparing for that type of job for my own content but this is great and as a side hustle. I'm a musician, so the audio part is always under control cause I have portable solutions.
Like a clumsy jeweller, you’re dropping gems.
Ahah we out here !
Best comment
Haha I may steal this line. But he’s right
Stealing this😂
You’re too clean like.lasagna😂
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!
Wait is that uncommon ?

No problem my guy!

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.
for viewers' sake - don't mirror, please )
Yes👍 but its works well only on close ups.
I stumbled on this video like someone who stubs their toe against the corner of a chair, but there was no pain. Thanks man
Great, the meat 🍖 off the video is at the end 🚶🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️
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.
That’s unreal that it helped 🙏🏾
What titles/lower third are these?
if i could only get one lens for interviews like this example w/ an FX30, which lens would you recommend?
Probably a mid range zoom 👍🏾
The lav is the backup. Not the boom.
A well placed boom in an interview is always going to be better than the lav.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video 👍🏾
Thank you b
Moving camara different i like it sonce i have one camara
Thank so Much for this Video, Bro...!!!
I'm Brazilian Guy... And I liked your lesson...!!

Thanks !
Thanks man! i did learner a lot !!!! this will help me starting with my videos!
Glad to hear it! Hope it helps !!
should you move the keylights when you switch angles ?
Nope ! Check out the 2 camera interview version of this one ☺️
Nice, many of us just use a teleprompter for consistent answers for multiple retakes while moving the camera into different angles.
That’s also a good way to go!
Just realized you used to be will tennysons filmer. Great stuff dude !

The videos do emulate the result do what you’d get from Multicam , which in essence is an interview with multiple angles, thanks 👍🏾
