Creates focused, natural and powerful footage.
The Magic Video Box transforms talking to camera easy and fun. It captures authentic direct-to-camera interviews, which filmmakers often say is hard to achieve.
The box features a one-way mirror, reflecting the interviewer’s face so interviewees speak naturally to a person, while looking directly into the camera.
Instead of the discomfort of talking to a lens, it inspires warm and open conversations. Less experienced individuals can talk comfortably, with ease to camera.
The MVB transforms quickly to teleprompter mode and has been used on Channel 4, Netflix, Channel 5, ITV and Sky.
WHY USE THE
MAGIC VIDEO BOX?
Easy to Set Up
The MVB takes about 15 minutes to set up and in seconds, with a tablet or phone, transforms into a teleprompter. The screen can also be used to view pre-recorded footage or talk to a person online.

MAGIC VIDEO BOX TESTIMONIES AND REVIEWS
The Magic video box is super quick! I travel a lot with kit, so having a lightweight medium sized box with all we need within it, has proved very useful. Many of the best designs are simple, using good quality materials, delivering the result and at a fair price. The Magic Video Box ticks all these boxes.
Richard Farish, Director of Photography, ‘I’m A Celeb….’
The interviewee can’t see the lens, so any nervousness from being filmed disappears. The device helps to create a space for the interviewee where they are ‘cut off’ from the crew, which reduces any embarrassment they might feel from recounting their story/experience. The process is quick, simple and comfortable for the interviewee, which has meant the interviews being emotional and authentic.

We travelled to Namibia with the MVB to shoot Straight Talking with Liam Payne and Ant Middleton. It worked great!
Craig Pickles, Director, Potato TV
Within 72 hours of reaching out to Sybil and her team, we had used the unit on-set and immediately saw the difference it made. We were conducting interviews with individuals unfamiliar with being on camera. With the Magic Video Box attached to our camera setup, they were able to talk naturally with the interviewer as though they were face-to-face. It put the interviewees at ease, which carried through into the edit and has honestly improved the quality of the documentary we were filming.We liked the application of the Magic Video Box so much we bought one.
Josh Peacock, Director of Operations, Dark Matter
It is extremely easy to hire from MVB, Sybil and her team respond very quickly. Even my last minute requests have been actioned so I have received the MVB the next day. I highly recommend them.
