Multicamera sitcom
A multicamera sitcom is a type of comedy show filmed using multiple cameras simultaneously on a set, often in front of a live audience. This setup allows for real-time editing and immediate audience feedback through laughter or applause. The traditional style features a few fixed camera angles capturing the action from different perspectives, making filming more efficient and cost-effective. This format is common in classic sitcoms like "Friends" or "The Big Bang Theory," creating a lively, spontaneous atmosphere similar to theater performances, while providing quick, consistent shots for editing and broadcast.
