Mark Bassant of C News, we hope you strongly chastised your cameraman for taking that wide shot of the exposed chest of the young woman Jamilla whom you interviewed in Diego Martin following the shooting death of the guy from the Parliament Channel.
How many of your viewers, male/female/young/old, do you think heard anything the young woman had to say?????
Steups!
The shot might have been appropriate if she was talking about the latest Playboy issue, but she was talking about her dead friend!
Yeah, ok, the cameraman was getting his freak on during the interview, but did he stop to think that you would actually have to use soundbites from the young woman??
All he had to do was tighten the shot, let you do your interview, then take a wide shot for himself so he could ogle all he wanted back at the office.
Steups!!! Totally tasteless!!
Julian Rogers take note: some of your cameramen obviously need some refresher courses on how to frame their shots!!!
