 +
 +===== B Roll =====
 +
 +  * Do not try to do fancy stuff like slides, zooms and such, at least until you did all else already
 +  * Make sure to make at least 15 second steady video parts **for each important product feature**
 +    * If in interview they tell you about some ports on back - show closup of the ports (>=15 seconds) and so on
 +    * Idea is to show close all product parts and actions (can be menus or such) they told during interview, it is like 3rd camera
 +    * Always keep enough timing for each part, do not rush    
 +    * Sometimes it is required to also record audi using same mikeo, if it is long demo, for example, such will be inserted in the middle of interview
 +  * You need to do at least two big product shots (>=15 sec), for thumbnail and for interview entry
 +      * Try to keep product in well lit place and with contrast background (without water bottles and dumps :-) )
 +  * Make steady booth shot (>=15 sec), remember - no people you talk to or even left microphone can be in this frame
 +  * Always make 15 seconds B roll of their their badge and another 15 seconds with product card or product name, it saves lot of time durind editing
 +  * Try to keep white balance and properly expose shots
 +  * Always try to focus before hitting record, it saves your and editor time
 +
 +===== Interview intro and ending =====
 +
 +**Intro**
 +
 +
 +  * Before starting intro, put mike into working position near mouth, look at camera and count to 4 inside. It helps me a lot later in editing. 
 +  * We are at XXX booth talking with [First_name_only] about YYY that [has some cool feature]. [First_name_only], can you tell us [more about it]?
 +    * Note that it is short, does not contain exhibition name, does not contain year, your name, anything you can forget or that can be just adding length. I'll add all this in titles or it'll be clear from context.
 +    * Such words as "Uhh", "Umm", "Aaa", "Again", "Hello" are prohibited :-)
 +
 +**Ending**
 +
 +  * [First_name_only], thanks for showing us such wonderful product. {Look at wide camera}. Make sure to subscribe to Personal View channel to see more great videos and remember to click on little bell to get notices. See you soon!
