Subject Positioning • Nose Room • Leadroom • Headroom
Leadroom • space ahead of subject – 2/3 • 1/3 behind subject • when subject is moving side to side in camera view
WRONG lead Correct lead
Headroom • space above the head so camera doesn’t alternately cut off hair/head • about 1-2 inches
Remember to pad your shot … • wait a few seconds after beginning recording so camera can index • pad at the beginning and at the end
