unobtrusive camera work which offers a ‘window on the world’ which is one of the
characteristics of the show. When it comes to the cuts on Khloe & Lamar there relatively
long, this is because it’s meant to give the audience a look in to their reality of things instead
of it cinematic hence the reason for longer takes. When the show is shot it’s going to have
zoom lenses and very likely to be hand held, reason being as it allows more freedom for the
camera man when following the individuals as they go about their day. It’s edited to show
what that individual is doing through the day. In Khloe & Lamar they free flow with when it
comes to speech, it’s not scripted or directed in any way that would make the audience feel
that there watching a film for example, you can tell especially when there in restaurant
environment where you can hear other people’s conversations. You wouldn’t see the film
maker in the show because that’s not what the focus is, the viewers are more interested in
what there been shown with the celebrities rather than the maker of the show.

camera as it could be an emotional episode. Oprah is well respected and is one of the most
influential women on the planet, when guests come to her show there’s an instant respect
shown on most of her shows which is good because there’s no type of ill feeling that would
