    A-roll is the primary video and audio of an interview or scene, while b-roll is additional footage used to cut between a-roll to make the video less monotonous. Examples of b-roll that could be shot for a story about a female firefighter breaking gender barriers include her putting out a fire, at the station, with other firefighters, and getting into a firetruck. When first shooting b-roll, the three "must have" shots are mediums, wides, and close-ups before more creative shots. B-roll helps with editing by visually telling the story and hiding edits between soundbites. A sequence is a set of video clips that combine to make a coherent scene.
