The new rules seem more about style than honesty. Nod shots are not meant to deceive anyone, just provide visual interest. The nature of a camera is deceptive in that it does not reveal what is just outside the lens. How about lighting? Is it deceptive to create a video of someone looking like they are in their living room having an intimate conversation lit by the soft glow of a setting sun when in reality they are surrounded by lighting fixtures and a 4 person crew?
But I welcome the move to a more raw, real end product. Enough with all the glitz and polish already.
