Practical guide
Build a shot list for a one-person live production
A one-person shot list should match what the host can physically show and control without losing the explanation or the active product.
A one-person shot list should match what the host can physically show and control without losing the explanation or the active product.
A practical procedure
-
List the wide view, essential close-ups and offer recap in the order they are needed.
-
Use fixed product positions and rehearse each camera or scene change before adding live questions.
-
Mark a simple fallback view that can carry the explanation when a planned change is impractical.
Worked example: a fictional session
A fictional solo host starts with a fixed table shot, moves the item to a marked close-up position and returns it before reading the buying summary.
Check the limits
A complicated shot plan can exceed one person's attention even when each individual action is easy.
