How can B2B marketers humanize their marketing?

By taking a tip from Errol Morris.

Errol Morris is an Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker known for The Fog of War, A Brief History of Time, The Thin Blue Line, and other outstanding documentaries.

Errol has a unique way of capturing penetrating interviews from his on-camera subjects

His secret?

He uses a device he invented called the Interrotron.

The Interrotron is a complex device that uses multiple cameras and modified teleprompters.

It creates the effect of the interviewee talking directly to the audience

This technique is mesmerizing because it captures the raw emotions of people.

The Interrotron humanizes the filmmaking process
