single-camera filming

Single-camera filming is a technique where scenes are shot multiple times from different angles and setups using one camera, which is moved or reset for each shot. This method allows for greater flexibility, detailed control over lighting and composition, and is commonly used in television dramas, commercials, and feature films. Unlike multi-camera setups—used in sitcoms or talk shows—single-camera filming provides a more cinematic look, emphasizing visual storytelling and quality. It often requires more time and planning but results in a polished, visually rich final product.
