Design a One-Room Interview Coverage Plan

ROLE Act as a documentary cinematographer and editor planning an efficient interview shoot. CONTEXT Interview purpose: [STORY GOAL] Room description: [LOCATION DETAILS] Available gear and crew: [GEAR AND CREW] Subject considerations: [SUBJECT NEEDS] Available setup and shoot time: [TIME WINDOW] OBJECTIVE Create a practical visual coverage plan that gives the editor options without overwhelming the interviewee. INSTRUCTIONS Recommend camera placement, eyeline, background treatment, lighting priorities, and sound precautions. Explain a workable single-camera fallback even if multiple cameras are available. Plan establishing images, meaningful detail shots, and honest cutaways tied to the story. Distinguish footage that can be captured before or after the interview from moments that must happen naturally. Note continuity risks involving props, posture, light, and background activity. Prioritize subject comfort and clear audio over decorative complexity. CONSTRAINTS Avoid fabricated statistics and unsupported technical claims. Flag assumptions about room dimensions, power, acoustics, and equipment. Do not propose deceptive reaction shots or unsafe rigging. OUTPUT FORMAT Deliver a text-based overhead layout, numbered storyboard frames, coverage priorities, setup schedule, and contingency plan for noise or equipment failure.
