Multi camera live set up

12/9/19
for a live multi camera shoot you need to at least have 2 or more cameras.

for multi camera shoot you need to think of the time code it helps separate hours, minutes and seconds and you use this to synchronise the timecode on multiple cameras and this is called a Jam sync. EX.01:00:00:00= 1hours

the tv standard for England is called P.A.L and stands for Phase Alternating Light and whats important when talking about P.A.L is a blur frames per second so Tvs in England its 25 FPS so in timecode way its gonna be 01:00:00:00 which shows the first frame but as it continues the timecode changes to 01:00:00:01 all the way to 24 and then it ticks over to 0 again but the next column turns to 1 for example 01:00:01:00 a bit confusing.
h.   m.  s.  f
01:00:00:00
h.    M.  s.  f
o.     I     e.  r
u.     n    c.  a
r.      u.   s.   m
s.      e.        e
         t.         s
         s

T.O.D=time of day

so for a 1 day shoot
and you jam sync it it keep not to that days time

Edit
this is for broadcast tv

the time code during editing round the world is 10:00:00:00 and that is the in point
previous to the timecode above you have 2 minuets before it and that would be 09:58:00:00 if you were broadcasting it and after the start of the second timecode there would be 30seconds of black video playing no RGB and then 1 minuet of Bars and tone and what that is is testing the audio and the video and then after that there is a bit of more black video then the actual show starts at 10:00:00:00 and in that 30 seconds of black video before the start of the show there should be a clock counting down to the start of the show usually with the name of the show and how long it runs for.



Countdown clock




Back to camera

now with white balancing pretty simple we all know how to do it.
but what it actually doing its separated into 1v is white 0v is black and what your doing is setting RGB100% it is called the Legal gamut and gamut means an area from one point to another and then sets it to anything legal to broadcast so you can't have more than 100% of RGB

wha shows can be multi camera.
concert/gig
game show
debate
daytime
soap
cooking

What is a ND filter it stands for Neutral density and it white balances in quick changes of light and its very useful

Zoom control and zoom ring and it should be set to Manuel not servo and it has t and w which stands for tighter and wider and this is on the rocker.

focus ring: the focus of a camera is measured in meters and is called focal length

Iris ring: is also known as a wheel

it has a feature called the  F STOP and this apart of exposure if its large and open= F 2.4 and small/closed= F2.2
most photographer use F8 and be there.

Gain is when you amplify existing light so in low light level conditions if you do not have light the problem with this is that it makes noise and makes everything grainy

checklist
sound white balance exposure focus and frame

White balancing: you have 2 pre sets A and B you do 2 white balance setting so you can quickly change it for a situation


sound: look at the channel volume and you see the wheels make sure they're adjusted.
Audio selection: you use both mics onboard and use the one legged setting
Zebra: when whites are illegal it will zebra so you have to adjust the iris.

shot types:
wide mid class on kegs and standing still is called locked off
a moving shot is called a dolly shots its forwards and backwards and it is a tracking shot which is left and right.
high pov and low pov and that is a crane shot its like a dolly but from above.
drone shots aswell
