Reality TV Shows

Reality shows also use this technique, however in some reality shows there are no camera operators as it would destroy the realism of the programme and would make contestants feel uncomfortable to express themselves. The whole idea of a reality show is that the contestants start to feel at home and forget the cameras are there which is why the cameras are hidden or placed discreetly around the accommodation. Surrounding the scene, the cameras capture the main action which is then briefly edited and broadcasted to the public. 

Big brother is a very popular reality show that uses the Multi-camera technique because again it is one of the quickest and most efficient ways to record and broadcast the action in a short period of time.


"Big Brother is a television show in which a group of people live together in a large house, isolated from the outside world but continuously watched by television cameras. Each series lasts for around three months, and there are usually fewer than 15 participants. The housemates try to win a cash prize by avoiding periodic evictions from the house." For more info click here (Source)

This is a good example of the show my production team will be making as it includes a host,VTs and recorded footage.
