SEE U
SEE U is an innovative mirror attachment for interviews that allows the interviewee to look directly into the camera and still maintain eye contact with the interviewer. The system is easier to use than comparable systems and creates a more personal interview situation.
The image is reflected into a horizontal orientation leaving a wide look through area, for all sorts of interactions between a person in front or behind the camera.
The face can be clearly seen in the look thru area. Apart from interviews, it also allows actors to interact with their counterparts on emotional close-ups.
Shoot two different focal lengths from the exact same view point, with no parallax offsets.
Place a monitor or an Ipad in the look through area and use SEE U as a teleprompter or interact with crew members, while speaking into the camera.
The mirror box can be folded to fit to small camera setups on documentary shoots.
SEE U was created by Screen Plane’s founder Sebastian Cramer and is produced and distributed in a collaboration with Cartoni, a leading supplier for camera support products.
