Creative and Media 14th September GWN

Today we focused on succeeding these objectives:
-Watching some example interviews
-Make a check list for a good interview
-Watch and evaluate our own clips
-Set targets and rehearse the new interviews with improvements
-Record new and improved interviews

So first we watched a interview on you-tube with Jonathan Ross interviewing Lady Gaga. We jotted down some notes about the interview:
-He introduced the guest well and showed respect with a kiss on the cheek and a hug.
-Because Lady Gaga is a very strange person and not very open, Jonathan Ross had to find away to relate to her and he does this by being honest.
-He also said what the audience where thinking, this makes him a great presenter.
-To make it a good interview you must be well informed about the person you are interviewing.
- Jonathan Ross uses humour to open the person up this is a good point to add to the check list.

We then looked at another interview with Lady Gaga, this time it was on location after a awards ceremony:
-The presenter used active listening and  eye contact so that Lady Gaga would feel more involved and open up more.
- Compliments are good to use in a interview because they make the person feel appreciated.
-Its always good to know when to finish the interview because the person could get very bored with the questions.

We then made a check list for a good interview. These are the main points i put in my table:
-Introduce the guest
-Relate to the guest
-Be honest
-Compliments-Well informed
-Balance of speech
-Humour
-Good finishing
-Correct Grammar

We then got some targets to improve our clips of our interviews:
-Rehearse more to make the interview flow.
-Better camera skills
-Use open questions
-Extend answers and questions.
