Types of Production From live multi-camera to single-camera film style
Multi-camera Liveand Live-to-tape • "switched" (edited) as the show progresses • studio/field • more economical • compromise aesthetically • Examples? Live vs. live-on-tape?
Multi-camera Liveand Live-to-tape • Requires a video switcher • Crew must work together, director ‘calls the shots’ • 2-30 cameras at once
Single Camera (film style) • shot in field, edited in "post" • news, drama, films • more expensive & time consuming • more artistic control • Examples?
Multi-camera/multi-VTR • > 1 camera, combined in post-production • Some interviews, talk shows • Atypical mode of production
Production media - Film • 8, 16, 35 mm film • chemical/physical process; expose, develop, cut • grain, contrast, low light, resolution • more expensive, higher quality
Production media - Film • always edited in post, often transferred to digital files, edited on computer then transferred back to film • better contrast ratio (light vs. dark areas in frame) • aesthetically "past" - tends to have 'historic' look even if shot last week
Production Media: Video"broadcast quality" vs. home • Formats • Broadcast quality - Beta, BetaSP, MII, DVCPro, DVC Cam • Lower broadcast quality / "Prosumer" - SVHS, Hi8, mini DV . . . • Home quality - VHS, 8mm, VHS-C
Production media: Video • electronic vs. chemical • light "transduced" into electrical signal, digital code • contrast ratio, resolution problems • immediate production, immediacy
Production media: Video • less expensive (in general) • perceived lower quality (in general) • aesthetically "present" - tends to have a 'present' look even if shot years ago
