The unblinking radio studio - cameras invade the inner sanctum
The days of hiding behind the microphone in a radio studio are long gone, at least for anyone in the public eye. Either the video media is covering the interview, or the station itself is making a video, or it’s even being simulcast over the web or some TV channel. Just look at the number of videos on YouTube that were shot during a radio interview.
So, what do you do? First, always ask whether an in-studio radio interview is going to be on video. If it is, dress for TV and not for radio. Still talk to your radio listener and don’t talk to any cameras. It’s always important to assume the microphone is ON while you’re in a radio studio - now you have to assume that the cameras are always rolling too.
