I interviewed my subject, Sarah Cook, in Quincy Illinois, where our tournament took place. We did this after our last game, so it was fun to talk about our game and our team in the interview itself. In fact, our team celebrated with a McDonalds run after our win, so the interview took place in the restauraunt which was very funny. I initially intended to interview Sarah on the bus heading to Quincy, with out teammates in the back round, however the bus was too shaky to film. The interview went very smoothly however, and I learned a lot about our team. Additionally, with the editing process I had trouble choosing only 3 clips to include within the video, because Sarah said many informative things. I overall enjoyed my first interview experience because I got to talk to my good friend about the sport and team we both love.

This project we are assigned to construct and direct a 3-5 minute interview about any topic we desire. We started out by practicing filming around school, interviewing our peers to work on our skills, and becoming more comfortable directing the camera. Next, our whole class worked on one interview between the teacher, and a student. Each of us were assigned a different job, as I was the location scouter. We all worked as one to help make this interview, which helped us practice our skills and what specific details to remember when we are doing our own. By completing many practice interviews, we learned many different techniques. For example, I learned to keep the subject in one third of the frame, with the light facing the subject. Additionally, zooming in close to their face is important, as well as asserting the microphone correctly.
