Camera Set-Up Steps:
- Begin by placing charged batteries into cameras.
- Turn cameras on and into ‘camera’ mode.
- Make sure cameras are placed in the correct position (behind the teleprompter) and at the correct height (just above the teleprompter.)
- Adjust the exposure levels by pressing the button on the side of the camera and pressing up for lighter exposure and down for darker.
- Put the headphones on from camera A and do a mic check. Make sure both studio microphones are on and that the mic levels are good.
- Since camera A will primarily be a two-shot, set the camera so that both talents are in shot and in focus. Set camera B for a one-shot of the first talent to speak (just ask director who that will be.)
