Hello together,
I noticed something that woke up my curiosity: During American press conferences/interviews, there are nearly always people standing in the background, looking concerned into the camera and nodding their head in approval every once in a while.
Whereas in Germany, there’s just a neutral background with just the speaker in the frame or the conference is filmed with a telephoto lens with a nice bokeh, so the background is just blurry.
So I asked myself: Is there a particular reason for that? Because from my point of view,the people in the background can be quite distracting.
