We prepare the questions way before filming. This ensures everyone on set is on page with what is being asked and will give the interview sufficient time to prepare quality answers.
We avoid the dreaded "yes" or "no" answers. We make the interaction conversational and open. The more we can get the interviewee to open up, the more genuine the interview.
Moreover, it allows the interviewee to be spontaneous. The audience doesn't really react to "canned" answers. But they will to genuine and compelling answers to questions.
We block out the interviewee so he or she knows how to stand (or sit) and where to look. Whether it's framing for the rule of thirds or lighting a 3:1 ratio, we bring and use the appropriate film equipment to deliver a quality video interview.
Documentary style interviews are one of the best techniques to get awesome sound bytes and quick clips as testimonials or as videos for YouTube. They work even better on Instagram, where videos are expected to be shorter.
