EyeDirect Interview System: A Closer Look

The EyeDirect Interview System is a specialized device designed specifically for maintaining eye contact between interview subjects and the camera lens. Filmmakers, documentary creators, and interviewers often face the challenge of ensuring that interviewees look directly into the camera, creating a more engaging and intimate connection with the audience. The EyeDirect system elegantly solves this problem.

How It Works

1. Design and Components:

   • The EyeDirect system consists of a compact box that attaches directly in front of the camera lens.
   • Inside this box, there are two parallel panes of glass:
     • Regular Mirror: The first pane functions as a regular mirror, reflecting the interviewer's face.
     • Beam Splitter Mirror: The second pane is a beam splitter mirror. It allows light to pass through while partially reflecting it. This mirror is the key to achieving eye contact.

2. Placement:

   • The EyeDirect system is positioned in front of the camera lens, ensuring that the interviewee can see the interviewer's face reflected in the regular mirror.
   • Importantly, the beam splitter mirror is angled in such a way that it allows the interviewee to simultaneously see the interviewer's reflection and look directly into the camera lens.

3. Guaranteed Eye Contact:

   • When the interviewee looks at the interviewer's reflection in the regular mirror, they perceive eye contact.
   • Simultaneously, because of the beam splitter mirror, their gaze aligns with the camera lens, creating the illusion of direct eye contact with the audience.

4. Benefits:

   • Intimacy: The EyeDirect system fosters a deeper connection between the interviewee and the viewer. It feels like a genuine conversation.
   • Professionalism: By maintaining eye contact, the interviewee appears more engaged and trustworthy.
   • Ease of Use: The system is straightforward to set up and requires no batteries or additional cables.
   • Quality Construction: Made in the USA, the EyeDirect system is built to last.

5. Models:

   • EyeDirect Mark II: The full-size version, recognized for its technical excellence, is ideal for professional video production. It's commonly used with larger cameras.
   • Folding Mark E: A more portable version, the Folding Mark E, is designed for DSLR, mirrorless, or prosumer cameras. It folds to fit in a backpack or computer bag, making it travel-friendly.

6. Testimonials:

   • Filmmakers and professionals praise the EyeDirect system:
     • Thaddeus Matula, known for ESPN's "30 for 30: Pony Excess," credits the EyeDirect for significantly improving his interviews.
     • Randy Field, Creative Director at Tomorrow Media, considers it an essential tool.
     • A-list actors and filmmakers have spontaneously praised the system upon seeing it.

In summary, the EyeDirect Interview System revolutionizes the way interviews are conducted, ensuring that interviewees maintain eye contact with the camera while still engaging with the interviewer. Whether you're shooting documentaries, corporate videos, or interviews, the EyeDirect system enhances the visual connection between subject and audience, resulting in more compelling and authentic content.
