During my final project, I learned a lot about how to conduct an interview, as well as many new tips and tricks for the editing process. While interviewing seemed unnerving at first because I wasn't sure how people would react to the camera, it soon became easy to set up even on my own. I learned that when you recorded alone, the camera needed to be placed so that you could see it during the interview. And, when you recorded with others, it had to be placed behind your shoulder. I also learned some useful techniques to induce longer and more thoughtful answers. Words like "Tell me," helped me to make a simple statement turn into a full story. Furthermore, after interviewing I was able to learn more about editing. The new, "plot points," became a game changer because I was able to end much less abruptly. This made my work appear much smoother, and more professional. Overall, the process of interviewing and getting camera footage was difficult at first, but with practice, it soon became easier to work. If you want to watch the video go to my VIDEO page.
