Creating An Interview

Creating An Interview

• Give enough time to shoot
• Choose best place to film - picking location!!
• Make them feel comfortable
• The interviewer cannot look at the camera as the audience will find it unexpected and not a normal thing to do when interviewing and the questions being asked as it can distract the listener
• Make full eye contact 
• Listen to the person you're interviewing
• Don't interrupt them and talk over them
• Think about what's in the background as it can also cause a distraction if too much is going on
• Take the interview in a quiet place

180' Rule

If you cross that line of the 180' Rule, you will confuse your audience - the line that goes between them. The 180° rule is a cinematography guideline that states that two characters in a scene should maintain the same left/right relationship to one another. When the camera passes over the invisible axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line and the shot becomes what is called a reverse angle.

Framing

Framing, is where you use the Rule Of Thirds in your filming and then focus on each individual section. It also expands on the research by focusing on the essence of the issues at hand rather than on a particular topic. However, the concept of framing is related to the agenda-setting tradition but expands the research by focusing on the essence of the issues at hand rather than on a particular topic. The basis of framing theory is that the media focuses attention on certain events and then places them within a field of meaning.
