When producing a TV Show the cameras need to be placed, so they are lined up with the Talent they are filming, also assuring that the appropriate shots can be produced.
Camera Placements and Shots
On the Studio Floor there are either 3 or 5 Pole Cameras depending on how many contestants you have, and 1 Camera on a Jib Arm. In a live show with 5 pole cameras, two would be placed on each side of the set aiming at the contestants. These cameras are planned to produce shot sizes of MCUs, 2 Shots, 3 shots, and Over the Shoulder shots of the contestants. The fifth camera is also known as the Host's camera, where the Camera Operator would produce MCUs or MSs of the Host. Although, as this camera is placed further to the back of the studio, it is possible for this camera to produce a long Shot of the Host with either Team A or B on the other side of the Host. A wide shot can also be positioned using the camera on the Jib Arm using its height for a high angle WS of the set, audience and Talent. This is placed to the far back of the studio, This camera can also be used to give movement around the studio.
