Les documentaires “cours et tires”


Explanation:
"L’expression “run and gun” (que l’on pourrait appeler “cours et tires” en français) désigne le fait d’avoir des outils de captation vidéo légers, fluides et rapides à mettre en oeuvre."
https://www.studiosport.fr/guides/photo-video/run-and-gun.ht...

“Being run-and-gun is about always being ready for the next shot, because in many of these situations, you only get one chance."
