Is it just me that gets annoyed by obviously posed camera shots on the telly?
For instance, on some shite ?find you a property - you?re obviously too stupid to do it yourself? show recently the scene is a dark room...
Door opens and light is switched on and Stupid Property Buyer (SPB) walks into room and comments, ?ooh, what a lovely room? or suchlike, not ?FFS what?s a cameraman doing in here hiding in the dark, is he some sort of pervert or something??
Or when the presenters of the show go to call ?randomly? on somebody and SPB or whatever answer the door surprised yet the cameraman is inside the house looking out at the presenters - like you always have a camera crew lurking in your hall just in case!
In programmes where they do a ?home challenge? like Fear Factor the presenter rings the doorbell and twenty-five people answer the door including assorted uncles, aunties and neighbours. In reality, the scene inside would be: -
?Who?s that?
?I dunno ? open the door and fine out?
?No, you go ? I?m watching telly?
?No you go ? I?ve just painted my nails?
etc.
Are there really people that take this on board as ?natural? behaviour and believe it to be ?real??
