AggieDave 6 #3 June 16, 2006 No, its two seperate cameras shooting different angles. An A-roll and a B-roll. The A-roll is the main footage, the B-roll is the secondary shot footage that is edited into the main footage. Used for cutaway shots (film cutaway, not skydiving), fades, perspective shots, etc. Atleast that's what A-B rolls typically are in filming. Who knows, NBC could have just made some stuff up.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
