When planning placement and shots there is alot that should be taken into consideration firstly who the cam will be pointing at this will determine the use of shots, for example if it is a host cam it will more than likely be on an MCU for the majority of the show.
In our studio there are four cameras and all will be used for the quiz show I shall take you through the subjects and shots of each cam.
Camera 1 & 3: These two cameras essentially have the same job their focus is on the contestants on either side of the host, the shots most common from these cams will be two shots and OSS, however MCU's and possible even three shots can be gained from these cameras.
Camera 2: Camera 2 is the host camera and therefore is placed directly in front of the host, The main shot from here will normally always be an MCU, this can be used for a safety shot if the director does not know where to cut. Another shot from here may also be three shots of either team this could be very useful and experimental during a quickfire round in the quiz show.
Camera 4: This camera is in charge of mainly wide shots but can also be used for swooping shots of the studio when cutting to an ad break for instance. This camera is placed upon a job arm to provide more height and experimentation.
