Planning camera placement and shots

The camera placement is based on what the set looks like for example the size. Our set is placed out in a quiz show format with the desk in the middle and the flats at the back, so we are going to use 4 cameras which are 3 pole cameras and 1 crain camera.
The first camera (cam 1) is a pole camera which is situated on the far right of the tv studio, this is because it is going to be used for getting shots of Team A which are contestents A and B. This camera will be getting alot of different shots of them including 2-shots, medium shots and also over shoulder shots.
The 3rd camera (cam 3) is also a pole camera and is situated on the far left of the tv studio opposite to (cam 1) and is used for getting exactly the same shots as (cam 1) but of Team B which are contestents C and D.
The 4th camera (cam4) is on a jib which is like a big crain, this camera is responsable for getting a wide shot. The jib is able to give us a high and low angle shot. This camera is also handy for getting a shot of the audience because of the hight that it can go.
The 2nd camera (cam2) is mostly only used to get two main shots, one is of the host because this camera is directly in front of the host so the host will also be looking at it. The second shot is a 3 shot, this camera will be getting two 3 shots. One of the 3 shots is of the host, contestent A and contestent B and the second 3 shot if of the host, contestent C and contestent D.
