This document provides tips for setting up video interviews including recommended camera equipment, lighting setups, camera angles, and post-production elements like b-roll footage and title banners. It recommends using a DSLR or video camera, wireless microphone, and various lighting including a key light, fill light, and back light. It also provides low-budget lighting options like hardware store work lights, small video lights, and reflectors, and describes different camera shots from medium to close-up.
Personal understanding and publically useful knowledge in Social SimulationBruce Edmonds
There are two different ways in which social simulation can help a researcher - by honing their intution about how certain models and mechanisms (roughly what Polanyi meant by "Personal Knowledge") and in demonstrating hypotheses that might be interesting and relevant to other researchers in the field (roughly what Popper meant by "Objective Knowledge"). Both are valid goals and useful, indeed I would argue both are essential to real progress in social simulation. However, too often, these are conflated and confused, to the detriment of social simulation. This talk aims to clearly distringuish between the two modes, including the different ways of obtaining them, their different (and complementary) uses as well as when and how these are appropriate to communicate to others. In short a "model" of simulation usefullness is outlined with implications for the method of social simulation.
What is "Personal Knowledge Management" and what skills, tools and literacies do I need to ensure I remain relevant in today's fast-moving and sometimes chaotic environment,

2. Camera Equipment For Interviews
@campbellcameras
1
Video or DSLR Camera
DSLRs are becoming popular
for filming interviews & b-roll
Wireless Microphone
Picks up crisp clear audio.
Various Camera Lights
3. Camera Angles For Interviews
@campbellcameras
2
Medium Shot or Two-Shot
From the waist to
the head
Medium Close-up Shot
From the center
of the chest to
the head
4. Camera Angles For Interviews

Semi Close-up Shot
From the
shoulders to the
head
Close-up Shot
Only the head and
the face
5. Lighting For Interviews

Basic Lighting Setup
Key Light- Shines directly on subject. Main
Light
Fill Light- Shines on subject from angle,
usually lower, softer and less bright
than key light.
Back Light - Shines on the subject from back,
usually from an angle. Creates a rim
around the subject to distinguish the
subject from the background.
Follow this basic set up and change it to
manipulate your light for the look your
going for!
6. Budget Lighting Setups

Hot Lights
Found at Hardware stores starting
at $18-$45.
Tip: Going for a more “cool” look?
Buy the tinted blue replacement
globe
Joby Gorilla Torch
Found at Campbell Cameras
For only $29.
Tip: Use multiple GorillaTorches to
create this spotlight effect

Reflectors
Found at Campbell Cameras
starting at $24.95.
Tip: They allow you to manipulate
your lighting (see pg 7)
Paper Lanterns
Found at Wal-Mart and are super cheap at
around $4-5.
Tip: Gives you a soft light. Try adding different
color lanterns or light bulbs to change the look.
8. Reflectors as Fill Lights
@campbellcameras

Reflectors
A cheap, light-weight, and fast option for a fill
light & to manipulate your lighting
Gives off a Warm Tone
Gold Reflector
Provide the softest-even fill.
Tip: Great to use in-the-field where
the sun produces dark shadows
under the bill of a hat. White
Reflector can be used to cast a fill
light to where you can see your
subject’s eyes
White Reflector
3-in-1 Reflector
Silver Reflector
Gives off a “cool” look. Adds more
light than white. Acts like a mirror.
REALLY Bright if used outside on
sunny day.
9. B-Roll Cut Shots
@campbellcameras
8
B-Roll shots break-up interviews to give a visual representation of
what your subject is talking about. This keeps your viewers enter-
tained. They are mixed throughout your interview in post.
Examples:
10. Title Banners
@campbellcameras
9
It is always a good idea in post-production to add a graphic banner
along the bottom of the screen for part of the interview that gives the
audience and idea of who this person is (Name, Team Name, ... etc.)
