Multi-camera productions: live sitcoms e.g the big bang theory Talk shows e.g Jeremy Kyle show Soap operas e.g Eastenders
The difference between a single camera production and multicamera production is with a single camera production production you would have to shoot the same seen over and over again but from different angles. This is used more in films and documentaries but with a documentary it is different as they film them in a way as they are talking to the audience. Where as a multi-camera production is used most in live TV where they would use a vision mixer to edit the filming as they go along this occurs usually in sitcoms such as friend or the big bang theory where there is a live studio audience. Productions for single and multicamera techniques are different as to produce with a single camera you would need to create storyboards in difference with a multi-camera production you would need to create a floor plan.
Advantage s Multicamera
with a multi-camera production it is easier to edit the filming taken as usually a vision mixer is used which helps you change quicker from one camera at an angle to another for example you were film from a high angle and something dramatic occurred and then you would switch camera to another which is zoomed on another characters face to show their reaction no need for relighting the set/scene as would be done to fix all cameras
with single camera productions the director can feel more free as it provides them with more control over the production. cheaper to film as then only one camera would need to be hired easier to set up and move around make the shot feel more realistic to the audience
