Type Of Interview

The type of interview that i want to do is like when T4 interview stars on their programme where they use a set up of 3 camera's and they switch between the presenter, the interviewee and also a wide shot of everyone in shot.

This is T4 interview includes X Factor 4th placed Cher Lloyd talking about her new song out "Swagger Jagger" i like the way the presenter introduces the interviewee with a close up on the presenter as the first opening shot this both shows where the interviewer is and who it is, i would like to do this for our interview with Emily Rawlins, the second shot is a medium shot of Cher Lloyd after getting welcomed onto the programme this shot shows the audience who she is. The camera then cuts to a wide shot with both the presenter and the interviewee in shot this then proves to the audience that they are speaking to each other this would be beneficial for me personally because it makes it more appealing to the target audience and because we are aiming our interview at people in the college i believe we should take this same approach even though the T4 audience is aiming at attracting teenagers i believe that if our interview was going to put on a television programme channel 4 would be ideal.

Fred Response To Brief

Response to Brief

The first part of our 'News and Current Affairs' Package that we have been set as our first group-based television project. For the assignment, we are required to write and produce a News package production.

There are only a few rules:
- The assignment has to be an informative package that is relevant to The Manchester College
- Has to follow some of the rules and conventions that are used in contemporary news packages
- The sequence must be between 30seconds and 1 minute

We responded to the brief by sitting in our group and discussing possible angles that we could approach this assignment from. We brainstormed our ideas using knowledge that we already had of The Manchester College to see if our combined knowledge could create a unique, interesting and informative news story. We looked at fairly broad and general topics in the hope that we could find a new angle on

The Olympics In Manchester College

For our news report we will need to find out about "into work" project that Emily is a part of, this project is based on helping herself and others find work after leaving the college. We hopefully will be setting up an interview with Emily to hear her thoughts on the olympics, her preparation for the games and about her recent success also about transport to certain area's and why the financial support is needed and where has it came from in the past. The questions we will hopefully be asking would be:

1. What are you looking forward to most in the Paralympics this year?
2. Is it more beneficial that that it is in England for transport?
3. Is it tough work still attending college also training for the Paralympics?
4. How does it make you feel that you are representing your country, city and college and does that add to pressure?

Interview


 I have just created my first interview on final cut pro i believe there where a few details that i could have worked on such as the audio, that lack of music not played in the background can make the video seem slightly boring and uninteresting although when editing i tried to use the space above Kas's head to ask the questions. After reviewing everyone else's video i believe it might have been more professional if i included transitions and more GV's

Worried

I am scared and confused the person to the right of me is giving me strange looks
