    		In single camera, the action takes place in front of one camera. It doesn't necessarily meant that the final production isn't edited. Mostly the director will hold long or medium shots to get the action of all the people on the set. At one point, the Odd Couple was the quintisential one camera sit com.

    In multiple camera, the director has some versatility to show different camera angles, closeups, reaction shots. Your local evening news program is multiple camera.

    I'm looking for information on an old TV show from the late 60's or early 70's that appeared on public broadcasting. It was referred to as 'experimental TV', and I think the name of the show might have had the word 'strawberry' in it. This show had no characters or plot in the usual sense, but it was mainly about a guy who's stuck in a room or a box and has nothing but a chair. There was very little action and the whole thing was quite surreal. Does anyone else remember this show?
