Listen "Episode 43 | Interviewing Q&A | 7 Interviewing Tips for Documentary Videos and Films"
Episode Synopsis
Documentary is my favorite type of interview. Getting the opportunity to sit across from someone and dig into their life or subject of choice is like drinking a cup of coffee in the early hours watching the sunrise - no matter how many times you do it, it gets better every time.
In this episode, I talk about my seven tips on doing the best documentary video interviews that you can do:
If possible, meet up or talk to the subject before the interview
Be on time
Plan for setup time
Come prepared with questions and research
If you can, hire a camera op
Shoot in 4k or with 2 cameras
Plan a little longer than you think
This episode is certainly not exhaustive, but it's some great tips that I've learned from years of doing documentary-style interviews and loving doing it.
