Hi, we're in the field production class and today we're going to talk about A-roll and B-roll. A-roll is interview footage, like what you're looking at now. Talking heads, someone speaking, it's usually the main footage you use for your video. B-roll are cutaways, clips you use to illustrate what the person is talking about. So if I'm talking about computers and editing, you might see cutaways of the kind of things happening behind me. People editing and taking our final cut pro class. In general, beginners, when they're shooting B-roll or A-roll, they like to move the camera a lot. They tend to do a lot of pans and tilts and zooms. We teach in our classes that unless you have a dolly or a crane or a jib arm, it's best to compose your shots of static shots. So if you wanted to film the room behind me with B-roll, you'd want to take a couple wide shots of everything that's happening, some real close-up shots and some different variations of clips that'll really give people a good picture of what's happening in there without having to pan or tilt or move the camera.
