Our setup for the final interview with Noam Chomsky, for the forthcoming "Requiem For The American Dream."
We were running a skeleton-crew, just Kelly Nyks (director/interviewer), Jared Scott (producer/camera A/audio) and myself (Camera B). I shot with the 5D on the left as cam b, and in the foreground is the c300 with an Eye Line Direct setup. It's a pretty cool piece of gear that allows an interviewee to look directly into the lens, but via some mirrors, see the interviewer's face and talk to them, instead of a lens. Pretty handy for direct-to-camera stuff to keep the interviewee more relaxed and natural.
