Content College: Interviews

IMPORTANT: Bring your own storage (SD Card, External Drive, Thumb Drive) if you want to bring your footage home for your portfolio!

Shooting a great interview is more than just asking great questions. Framing up your shot properly, making sure the lighting is right, and even shooting in the correct frame rate can make the difference between forgettable and first rate!

We'll learn the entire process of setting up and shooting a professional two-camera interview in this two-hour class. You will leave with everything you need to know to go out and start offering these services on your own with confidence.

Topics covered: Shot composition and rule of thirds, exposure, white balance, frame rate, audio capture, lighting techniques, interview cadence — how to ask and be asked questions. And some cheat codes to getting great sound bites with ease.

Please come prepared to interview and be interviewed in this round robin style event. Everyone will operate a camera, monitor audio, sit and be interviewed, and ask interview questions.
