Codes and Conventions of Interviews





Today we were set a task whereby in our groups we had to practise setting up an interview about mobile phones. We had to frame it correctly, use relevant mise-en-scene and edit it. This is what our group came up with:




The rest of the class then came up with ideas for improvement and what was good about it. They said that it could have been framed to the left a bit more so it looks less central, also that instead of just having one poster we could have covered all the wall behind the interviewee with them. Furthermore, some of the cutaways we used were not always relevant to the question. On the other hand, the good thing they said about it was how the cutaway would come over part of the answers, the music choice and that there were no jump cuts. Doing this however, has made us think more carefully about what to do when constructing interviews.
