Practice Story Reflection

In GT we are working on a project that is an interview with an elder. The project will teach us interview skills and practice with rule of thirds.We chose groups and began a practice interview with one person from our group about her plans for the future. We chose her because of her uniqueness in her plans. We had to interview our chosen person and then take a video of B-Roll, then record our narration.

When we started filming our interview we set up a few questions and planned some narration. When we started filming the interview we shot it about 3 times. Each shot that the interview was taken in was slightly different with the lighting and the background. Since Imani said she wanted to be an actress we chose backgrounds for our interview with different equipment like cameras and microphones. For our B-Roll we filmed Imani practicing acting and writing her plans for her future.

We started editing the videos we took of the interview. We recorded the narration we needed for our video and then we added the b-roll to  our edited interview. The b-roll covered a lot of mistake or cuts made in the interview. We then added the narration into our video. We added the narration into parts that were hard to follow or parts that had audio gaps. When we were done it looked like a professional interview.
