2. As you are only using one camera instead of multiple
cameras. Also can rent cameras from companies, which
will be cheaper than buying one, very good for low
budget films.
Low budget/Cheap
3. Multiple camera set-ups are filmed chronologically
whereas single camera set-ups mean that the shots will
be shot in the order of flexibility and will be put in order
during editing.
Filmed chronologically
4. There are limited options on where cameras can be
placed in a scene. For example you may not be able to
do an over the shoulder or point of view shot for fear of
getting the recording equipment caught on camera.
Less flexibility
5. With the use of only one camera, the mobility of the
camera crew and resources is easier, as there not as
many materials to carry around.
Mobility
6. Directors have more control over each shot, whereas
with multiple cameras there would be someone with
responsibility for that camera.
More Control
7. One camera is easier to carry around / set up/ take
down.
Easier to setup
8. Easier to gather all the shots together as theyβre all on
one camera.
