All,
I am managing an international human rights video project in collaboration with the UN.
The goal of the project is to record the Universal Declaration of Human Rights being read by a native speaker in each of its 472 translated languages.
The project will take us to every continent and likely every country in the world.
We have explored different means of capturing these videos, from self-recorded to a fully equipped team.
Now, we're looking for a middle ground. I have 2 questions for you.
Would it be technically possible to do this with a single shooter (ie. no lighting, no boom, etc.)? This single shooter would need to be able to set up a teleprompter (might just be an iPad) and get the best lighting and sound possible. It does not have to be perfect, but it has to be usable. The subject needs to stay in frame, can't be washed out or inaudible.
Secondly, if this can be done competently by a single person, how much should we budget per day of shooting?
Looking forward to hearing your input. Many thanks in advance, Noah
