Which term describes a shot that most often includes an interview guest and the back of the reporter's head, and can refer to any shot including two people?

• A. Two-Shot
• B. Video Journalist
• C. Toss
• D. Tease

Answer: (A)

Two-shot describes a camera shot that includes two people in the frame. In broadcast news, this setup is perfect for interviews because it keeps the interviewer and the guest visible at the same time, showing their interaction and eye lines. You’ll often see the reporter’s back of the head in the foreground with the guest’s face in view, which is a common over-the-shoulder or joint framing you’ll encounter in two-shot setups. This framing is versatile and can cover any scene with two people, which is why it fits the description of a shot that often includes an interview guest and the back of the reporter’s head, and can refer to any shot including two people. The other terms refer to roles or segment elements rather than a shot type, so they don’t describe this two-person framing.
