Frank Kern does it
Chris Carpenter does it
Quick Video Marketing does it. (and even tell you in depth how)
Just about every TV show does it.
Shouldn’t you do it too?
One common technique on TV is to use multiple cameras with different perspectives. This has the following advantages
- When doing interviews or product shots, you can’t see everything with just one camera alone.
- It adds variety and keeps the users attention.
- It with cutting can draw the users focus.
- With proper cuts and fades create emotion
It’s been tempting to get 3 camera ‘interview” shoots both for the blog and some info products, like one of the ones I do is a cooking show like feel, that would benefit from having 2 camera. One close up on the desk watching the hands, the other two adding variety to the shot of the cook and helpers. Since I use cameras like the flip, this doesn’t break the bank and still fits into a single pair of jeans.
For infoprenuers who are largely doing things solo, or need to be portable, and targeted the web, this class of cameras is easy to carry in a single bag, I just haven’t heard of many doing it.
