Interview questions

Gilbert

Testing out audio/video

Can you tell me about your day so far?

You:

When did you move here... from where? Why?
The first time I came here, you mentioned that you need anger to do this. Why is anger important?
Do you think other people are angry?

Lies

What is your ambacht? Why did you choose it?
What is more important? Your workshop or your kitchen?
How do you divide or unite the different spaces - cafe, workshop, family? What's the relationship between these spaces?

both

When did you open this place?
How did you decide on the name of this place?
How did you envision this space? Have you realized your vision(s)?
How do you sustain it?
How has it changed?

Recap 10/12

9:00	pick up equipments at rental + test equipments + print out questions
10:30	meet Mia at Maastunnel
10:50	arrival
11:00	set up shoot
11:20	interview in cafe
12:15	interview in studio
13:30	lunch (spontaneous :)
13:50	more footage (action + outside)
14:30	end of shoot

On site, I interviewed the two sitting side by side, rather than separately as was in the script. I also didn't ask the questions in order. A lot of it is about weighing the situations as they happen, which is a nice challenge. The canon 5D battery lasted for about 3 hours of shooting. We didn't use a clip-on mic and opted for the zoom XY. No extra batteries was used for the mic.

For a small scale project like this, ideally I would work with at least two other people: one for cinematography and one for audio.
