Philip Bloom and Khalid Mohtaseb discuss Cinematic journalism at NAB

This video is of a conversation that took place on the show floor at NAB 2010 between the infamous video guru Philip Bloom and DSLR video shooter Khalid Mohtaseb. Just in case anyone missed it there has been a vigorous debate here on this very site about the rights and wrongs of a montage of footage the Khalid showcased – the debate even made it all the way to the Huffington post.

In this video Mohtaseb canvasses the views of Bloom, who spent 17 years as a news cameraman, about the issues around the use of cinematic techniques for news shooting.

We ask Vincent Laforet, the original 5DmkII filmmaker and former New York Times award winning photojournalist, about his views on cinematic journalism debate and the practicalities of using DSLR for news and documentary video shooting. His conclusions may not be what you expect. I also had the chance to speak to none other than Khalid Mohtaseb and Phil Bloom on the subject which I’ll upload in the next day or two.
