Hey, it’s Brady,
These are the best four camera angles for church live streams…
(downloadable cheat sheet coming later)
#1. Close
We'll use this sparingly on singers and speakers. It's great for detail shots.
#2. Medium
Characterized by the bottom of the frame hitting the waist of the person in the shot.
#3. Cowboy
Gets its name from Western films. Characterized by the bottom of the frame hitting the mid-thigh of the person in the shot.
#4. Full
Importantly, with full, you always want to leave a bit of headroom.
Shared language like this is tremendously helpful when training volunteers:
Close
Medium
Cowboy
Full
Thanks as always for your time, attention, and trust. Talk to you next Thursday. - Brady Shearer
