Interview

For the interview, I have the role of being the interviewee. My job is to answer the questions that are asked to me. In the other group, I am assisting as a sound assistant. During school, we took the establishing shot with my group and in the other group I helped recording the sound by holding the boom mic. We took the establishing shot first so we have a good position for the lights as well as the composition done, so next week we can start shooting the questions. We will have to consider what to do in case someone is absent, as well as need to be faster when it comes to setting up the equipment. We had the initial problem of not knowing how to put the lights, but after some work, we managed to put on the required lights. The result was that we got a really good establishing shot, but failed to record much. Next time, we need to record everything faster. Next shot we need to set up apparatus faster in order to save as much time as possible. We are going to need for next time a better knowledge on the apparatus as well as time, since lack of time was the reason we could only get our establishing shot.
