    Hi Jason, firstly thank you very much for these tutorials. In this one I get the depth of field and what you're doing with the focal lengths etc. I just wondered to create the 'over-the-shoulder' conversation are you using two cameras or do you film it twice, once from each side?

  • @FilmSkills

    Only one camera. That’s why rehearsals are so important to ensure a consistent performance when you flip the camera.

    Please someone explain to me, why the heck the camera makers don't put DOF calculator in their cameras? You have every info: lens angle, focusing distance, f-stop value, sensor specs... Why the heck don't you tell me what is my nearest and farthest focusing distances and a focal point suggestion on screen???

    Good question! One possible reason is that there's no sharp boundary between being (apparently) in focus and clearly out of focus. Depth of field is a little deeper for an image viewed on a cell phone versus on IMAX screen. Of course, manufacturers could use some arbitrary standard circle of confusion (the limiting disk that a point can blur into while still being seen by the viewer as a point) and this would at least serve as a rough guideline. That was the basis for the depth of field tables published in the ASC Handbook for example, and also printed on the barrels of some lenses.

    You frame for the Rule of Thirds, meaning you place the actor's eyes a third from the top of the screen. When you frame close-ups and extreme close-ups, you will naturally give the actors a "haircut."
