Mini Interrotron

Look interview subjects in the eye-- from anywhere in the world.

Mini Interrotron

“I could be talking to someone, and they could be talking to me and at the same time looking directly into the lens of the camera. Now, there was no looking off slightly to the side. No more faux first person. This was the true first person.”
— Errol Morris

Mine is like Errol’s Interrotron— only smaller. Lightweight, it’s easy to set up; it allows the camera to be handheld, if you'd like. It can also be set up next to the camera, if you're not into that whole first-person-eye-contact thing.

The interviewer can be in the same room (via a second camera), or anywhere else (via Zoom, WhatsApp, Skype, FaceTime, etc.).
