Framing shots – Gary Johnson and post match interviews

Writing about web page http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7945751.stm

Let’s put to one side Bristol’s capitulation in the last minutes yesterday to snatch a draw from the jaws of victory.

Instead, let us marvel at the interview footage of Gary Johnson in the video on the BBC website:

He either looks like he’s a naughty school boy being told off by the headmaster or that two blokes are about to take him outside and do him one for non-payment of gambling debts.

Not a leading Championship manager at all!

Perhaps in this age of ubiquitous video capture and distribution the Bristol City PR people might like to think about how they physically arrange these press briefings so that GJ (still believe in you btw!) doesn’t look like a numpty.
