The interview assignment
Assignment for the interview (the raw interview)
Thank you for being here. You're welcome. It's a pleasure to. So let's start our interview with. A question. What are you making? At the moment I am discovering. Photographing so I'm working with the camera, I learned the skills from Itana and I have been making pictures for the last two weeks of sunlight and that's connected to my iPhone project. And since yesterday I'm using the Canon camera. And I've been just trying that out, making pictures, and I'm loving the process of it. It's interesting. And why did you go cell to do that? I've always been fascinated by sunlight. It's always so pretty to me. It makes environment so much more pretty. And that's why I wanna capture it more. And I really wanna learn how to use a camera. Asset thought you know what? Let's combine those two. And now I'm gonna. Do my projects for the IL so about some light, so I just want to capture different kinds of lights. And have that as an inspiration for my film for the eye. How does it relate to other things? It. I don't really think it relates to other things just because I come from a journalism field. The things I've done before our. More journalistic. I've written articles about things and I did make videos, but it had nothing to do with my passion or obsession with sun, sunlight. So I think this is a total new project for me. But if it. Would relate to my. Past projects it would be that I wanna inform people about something. So I don't wanna make it all abstract for now. I don't wanna make it all abstract and I do wanna put my journalistic skills into that. Thank you word answer to. Maybe I did. Maybe you can say yes. How? How is it different to other things we haven't done? Um, so. With other things. Definitely in journalism, you approach it. In. Before you start making. You have the idea written down. So you need to know what you wanna make, where you wanna go, what type of information you wanna have, what, who your sources are. And right now I just started making pictures of sunlight and just let my. Feelings and passion go and every time I saw saw the sun shining on something and it was beautiful, I just made a picture of it with no intention to maybe use it, but just. You never know when it can be useful. Um. And I just started to make more from out of feeling and not from the brain. Because in journalism you always you wanna search for an answer. And right now, I didn't start searching for an answer. I just. Was enchanted by the sunlight and wanted to capture it. Set an answer. And critics. Yes, more free steps. Exactly. I'm just go with the flow and really capture what you find beautiful or what what end chance on me or is mesmerizing. Um. The further steps in the project will be. More in focus on religion, because I've always been. Very interested in the relation between sunlight and sun that comes from above and religion. I am not religious but I always find that very interesting, so those are next step for. But for now I'm just playing with the camera and finding beautiful light in Rotterdam. What do you think about are the most difficult choices that you have? I think the whole step of choosing a a subject at that that is close to me and that I find personally so interesting is something that I've never really done before. It has always been. About what is needed for the audience and right now what is needed for me to make something beautiful. So I think that's one of the most significant choices that I've made and the fact that I really wanna have a look into the religion life as a as a young child I've always been interested in. Religion and I've always find it peaceful to being a church and find a peaceful to seeing None's work and always been fascinated and interested in how is it to be a nun. But I've never really felt a connection with Jesus or God. So that's something that I really wanna dive into and. Just the fact that we can approach it project so personal as well. Maybe something brand new and what I really like, Yep. you on
Assignment for the interview (my first edit, no grammar, no punctuation)
What are you making? At the moment I am discovering photography. For the past 2 weeks I have been taking pictures of the sun(light) in my environment. And how the color of the light can change the whole feeling of the surroundings. Since Yesterday I have been working with a camera. Aitana taught me how I to use it. Last night I have been trying different settings in the camera. And I captured different objects and light sources. I am loving the use of the camera.
And why did you choose to do that? I’ve always been fascinated by sunlight. I feel very at peace and happy whenever the sun is out. I take the time to observe my surroundings and I feel the need to capture the moment. So with this obsession and passion for the beauty of sunlight I decided to focus my Eye film project on it. In my film project I want to capture the sunlight, but I also want to focus on the connection between religion and light. I come from a non-religion background, but I have always felt peaceful while visiting churches or meeting nuns. Although I have never felt a connection with Jezus or god.
How does it relate to other things? If I look at my previous work it does not relate to other projects from the past. The projects that I did in my journalism studies were not as creative free as this project for the Eye. I have never taken an obsession of mine, and developed it from my point of view. So I think this is a total new project for me. There is a small relation between my previous work and this work for the Eye. I still want to inform others and share information in a creative way. For now I don’t want to make the project for the Eye abstract, but you never know in the future. I still want to make use of my journalistic skills.
How is it different from other things you have done? I approached my previous work in a journalistic way. So before I started my work I had to have a plan. What was I searching for? Who do I need to speak to? In what form do I want to make it? I asked myself more critical questions before I dived into the deep. And in this project I just started making pictures of sunlight. I was creating throughout my feelings and passions. Every picture that I make is because I wanted to capture the sun. Not because I want to use it in the future. In my journalistic practice I start to search for clear answers. At the moment I am not searching for answers, I just capture what I find beautiful. I might search for answers further in the process. But for now I'm just playing with the camera and finding beautiful light in Rotterdam.
What are the most significant choices have you made recently? The whole step of choosing a subject that is close to me and that I find personally so interesting is something that I've never really done before. It has always been about what is needed for the audience and what is of current interest. I think that's one of the most significant choices that I've made and the fact that I am want diving into my childhood fascinations.
