Episode Three: 23 - Third Interview, i


After his dance session, Toshi had a break, so I wanted to get one last chance to get interview footage of him. More amateurish mistakes were made, but during editing, I think the footage was utilized nicely (I will talk about editing much later).

The main problem with this final interview was with audio. At first, I stupidly forgot to turn on the recorder, and thus the footage was useless. Because Toshi is very friendly, I confessed to him my mistake, and he allowed me to conduct the interview all over again.

This forced me to make a list of all the things that i must do when shooting an interview: 1) check lights, 2) check camera one, 3) check camera two, 4) check the audio, 5) check interview questions. (There's even more of the a checklist for when I leave my home for a shoot...) I'm sure that there's more to check, but for now that is enough for me. It reminded me why, even on interviews like this, a full crew is really necessary. In any case, I can't afford a full crew, so I just make sure that my checklist is all met, and try my best.
