First Person reflection.

[nummerzes]

Hello everybody,

I've got a question about shooting a scene in first person.

I want to shoot a scene on the street through the eyes of a character. How can I film it that way, that when the character looks in to, for example, a car window, you see his reflection as if you are looking at it trhough his eyes?

Thnx in advance...

You'd have to fake it...have the actor stand in, and cheat the camera to the side a bit, so it doesn't reflect, too. Also, to really make it look like his/her POV, have the actor look into the lense of the camera in the reflection he sees, and not at himself. Then it will look like he's staring back at himself.
