Shooting An Interview

 What are three key suggestions that this video brings up?  Why are each of these so important?  How could you use them in future productions?

Interviews are one of the most common shoots that you'll be asked to film. A good tip to keep in mind, is to chose good framing. Allow some look room to be present, and depending on what the interview is on, you'll want to have the subject looking either at the camera, or to the side of it. This will depend on what kind of interview it is, and what your message is! Also, you'll generally want to keep your interviews at eye height, but it depends. Another tip, is to add a fitting background! A great idea is to use a green screen, since you can be more creative with the background, and switch things up! Lastly, running a 2nd camera may be helpful to you, if you want to include a lot of A-roll in your interview. This will help keep the interview more engaging and interesting to look at.
