Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to send some feedback my way in terms of lighting, audio, framing, etc. on these two very short clips. These are two interview subjects that we'll be using in our documentary on the fortune cookie.

The first interview in the clip was shot on a DVC30, the second.. medium shot was on DVX100A, the tighter was on DVC30. Both instances we were a little rushed for time and had to be quick, but any feedback, suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks fellas,

Chris

The glare on the left of the shot of the first interview is a bit distracting, as is the shadow that his head produces on his shirt.
 
i would have put your back light at about head level a little behind him off screen to the right and your key ( which is on the right) on the left.

That would give you better contrast, possibly get rid of the glare, and get rid of the shadow on his chest.

I'd also get rid of or move that light spot behind his head (it's reducing contrast of ur subject and background) and zoom in a little more.

IMHO
