Single Camera: Different Distribution Platforms

TV:
A lot of TV shows use Single Camera. It is cheaper and easier to use than Multi Camera because you only need the one camera and you only have to set up one camera. However it might take longer to release episodes because editing takes a really long time and retakes also take a really long time as you have to make sure the camera setting and lighting is all exactly the same.

Interactive:
YouTube is big for single camera but this is because it is always focused around a single YouTuber. Vlogs are the main ones as they are just the YouTubers filming themselves going on their daily lives. They don't have to worry about continuity as it is all real life and just them filming their day so everything is organic and normal.

Film Festivals:
Film is quite hard to do a single camera production however it is done. It is hard because you need to get about 2 hours worth of footage and edit it which filming and editing will take literally forever. Having to keep continuity will also be hard because they'll have to make sure that lighting and mise en scene is kept the same throughout but having to film for so long, things might change around which is bad especially if you're trying to maintain continuity.
