Camara en Mano, y Vos, Que Ves? (Camera in Hand, How About You, What are you Seeing?), better known, and advertised, simply as Camara en Mano, is an Argentine television show.
History
"Camara en Mano" debuted during November of 2005 on Argentina's largest television network, Telefe. The show is a reality-type show, where various interviewers, some of which had already reached show business fame in Argentina and others which hadn't, attend different events with celebrities involved or film different types of adventures, always carrying a small, hand-held camera. Most of the times, celebrities are recorded without being aware that they will be shown on television, although some famous people have recognized the interviewers instantly. President Néstor Kirchner went as far as saying that he watched the show when he spotted a "Camara en Mano" interviewer after a political rally. Former President Carlos Menem has also been interviewed.
Famous international singer Sandro spotted one of "Camara en Mano"'s interviewers near his private swimming pool. Not knowing he was being filmed for a television show, he accepted to talk to the interviewer and answered questions from behind his house's fence. The person who interviewed Sandro that day was Lucia Maciel, a regular interviewer who is also an actress, having participated in various Argentine telenovelas, including 'Resistire" with Celeste Cid.
Maciel has interviewed many celebrities for "Camara en Mano". She was given a kiss on the cheeks by Enrique Iglesias during a press conference she covered for the daily show. She also held a moke sparring session with women's boxing world champion Marcela Acuna, and was at Buenos Aires' famous Luna Park to record a kick-boxing world title fight.
Other famous people who have appeared in "Camara en Mano' are male boxing world champion Jorge Castro, actor Facundo Arana and fashion model Jessica Cirio.
Not all celebrities have been kind to "Camara en Mano' interviewers: On the December 30, 2005 telecast of the show, a video of an Argentine politician injuring a "Camara en Mano" reporter by closing a car door and getting the interviewer's hand jammed between the car and it's door, was shown. This interviewer required a quick visit to a local hospital's emergency room, and had his hand inmobilied with a first aid product.
The "Camara en Mano" team also filmed a video during an airplane flight each of the members of "Camara en Mano"'s cast members took to Uruguay, to play a friendly soccer match with an Uruguayan team.
"Camara en Mano"'s host is Matias Martin. He has admitted that the show is, according to him, a hyvrid between two other similar Argentine shows of the past, "Teikirisi" (pronounced "take it easy") and "Camara Testigo" ("Witness Camera"), both of which enjoyed success in South America.
It could be said that the show's trademark is Martin's phrase at the end of each of "Camara en Mano"'s programs, when he asks, aloud, the question that is actually part of the show's official name, "Y vos, que ves???".
