Creating an Interview
Creating an Interview
- Make them fell comfortable, listen for a bit longer than you would actually listen normally so the audio is clean when asking the questions.
- Pick a good location with a good background
- Make the interviewee look at the interviewer
- Keep the eye contact
- Nod at the interviewee to show interest
- Keep the 180 degree rule to not confuse the audience
- The 180° rule is a film guideline that says that two characters in a scene should keep the same left/right relationship to one another. If the camera passes over the line connecting the two subjects, its called crossing the line and it confuses the audience.
- Frame the subject in the rule of thirds
- Leave a small gap at the top of the frame between the head and the edge of frame
- Use manual focus and a shallow depth of field
- Have something related to the subject the interviewee is talking about in the background if possible
- Keep the camera at the same level as the interviewees eyes so keep subservient and dominance at a minimum
