Within this report I will be writing about the different techniques that have been used throughout a news magazine production when using multi camera. For example I am going to be writing about the reasons why multi camera is used when filming a news magazine production and action coverage which is taken place and the visual effect that have been shown. I am also going to be writing about the communication throughout the production and how they maintain the viewers interest. Finally I will discuss the constrains when filming within a studio.
The reasons of using a multi camera production when filming a news magazine production would be the way how they are able to set out four cameras within the studio which will be able to be placed safely without causing any hazards. These camera would be able to cover every angle of the studio as it will only be a small setting. This is usually around a setting of tables and couches to give a more homely feel towards the audience back at home. This footage would then be edited live within a gallery would be placed away from the studio setting and within another room where the production team will be able to watch over the action which is taking place. An example of this that I have used is the television programme This morning as they show a typical studio event with the four camera set up.
The shot which would be used when filming production like this would be close ups of the presenters when they are talking so that people back at home will be able to witness and gather a full feel of the information which is being told my the presenter as it is both informative and entertaining for it's audience. They would also have another camera set up on the guest speaker so that the public are able to see who it talking and see what they have to say, for example in the video that I have used they have used two guest speaker as the topic is able whether over weight people should be able to work without being judged. They would also have another camera which would cover a wide shot of the set with both presenters and guest within the image. Multi camera production uses this technique as there is a debate between everyone within the studio the camera would b able to capture everything. Also they use this camera for when the director back in the gallery is informing the vision mixer which shot they would prefer to use on the main screen.
The visual style which has been used within this form of production would be bright colourful colours such as pink as this form of production cater for female more than male as female population is more interested in the information which is being told as it is more gossipy rather than informative. This maintains it's audience by showing visual graphics on the screen at the bottom to inform it's told isn't hard core news and is aiming for the working class interest.
The communication of meaning which has been used for the viewers needs would be the way how they use the presenters to talk straight at the camera at the beginning of the debate to inform the public what they will be watch and what will be happening and the topic for what the production will be able, this is so that the audience is informed and will not be confused when the discussion between each guest. They also use visual graphic on the screen to tell the public that they can be part of this debate if they go onto social sites such as Twitter and their opinion might be chosen to be put on screen for the audience to be seen. This form of production also uses the presenter to end the programme by creating a conclusion of the discussion.
The constraint of which this form of production need to take place when filming within a studio would be the ethical and legal restriction within a production as they would have to stay objection with the discuss to keep and open mind without showing sign of being biased and discrimination. As this could offend the audience in a ethical way from being either racial or showing sexism. Other constraints wold be legal issues as they have guests speaking on the production they would have to think about Actor release forms so that when they broadcast the production on television they will be no restrictions and problems which might lead them to court if not taken seriously.
