Today in class, we watched videos about how to set up an interview. Interviewing can be very tricky. Every small thing matters and will affect the viewers emotions or reaction to what they are viewing. To begin, placement of how the reporter and the person being asked questions is very important. They want to be pretty close. The angle of the person being questioned is important, too. The person must follow the rule of thirds. Also, communication is key. The interviewer can say phrases such as "tell me more" or "can you tell me about..". This makes the person being interviewed feel like they're not being interrogated and feel more comfortable to answer the questions more freely. I also learned that when positioning the camera, you only want to see the person from the shoulder up so that you don't see the wire from the microphone with little headspace at the top. There are many more details that go more into depth about interviewing but these are just a few.

All of these shots were taken to practice for when I need to shoot for my real 6 word story video. I picked these shots because they are my favorite. These shots were taken in the woodworking back room right next to our classroom.
