    I just found you a couple of weeks ago and really like your content. So refreshing to have a channel that’s not about the person, but the work. And your work is excellent.
    I started with your first video, and am now up to “Behind the scenes of Documentary Filmmaking. On set.”
    Would like to more of your perspective on this, a behind the scenes of an actual interview. For example, an interview with a metal sculptor. Research, prep notes, how the interview flows, with flubs, stops, gems, repeats, everything. Just to get a feel for what that’s like. Then a quick edit - the story, the best takes, and whittling it down. What you’re looking for as it comes together.
    Keep up the great work, and best of luck.

    How do you get your talents comfortable in front of the camera? I find most of the time people tend to act unnatural when they have a camera pointed at them. I feel that having that raw natural reaction and emotion is a big part of what makes a documentary.

    • @markbone
      @markbone  3 года назад +12

      You must spend lots of time without the camera around them and then also film them lots when it doesn't matter so they get used to the camera being around. Use the sandwich schedule, I talk a bunch about this in some of the documentary videos I posted back in August :)

You mentioned briefly that people tend to ramble when you go in without some kind of structure, but to what degree do you relay that to your subject before shooting? Thanks for doing all these videos, they're an amazing insight into how you do what you do.

    Love your videos. Do you use Signa art lenses on the fx6 with an EF to E adapter or are the native e mount?
