I've seen this on a lot "making of"-DVDs, especially for animation features: there are 2 mics in front of the VO talent. One right in front of them and one a bit further away AND a bit to the side (capsule still aimed at the artist).
This setup doesn't fit any of the known stereo micing techniques, so I wondered: is it just for the cameras?
