When filming my media product, we made surewe followed the conventions correctly: We filmed all our interviews in the position of the left or right hand of the screen in either close up, medium close up or medium shot. There eyes in rule of 3rd at all times. When editing, I made sure I included graphics displaying their name and relevance of the interviewee on the opposite side of the screen 4. As you can see both interviewees are notlooking directly at the camera, but at theinterviewer. Also the lighting is correct and it isnot too bright or too dark. 5. Like professional documentaries, we haveused cutaways in order to disguise jump cutsand to break or some interview as so not tobore the audience.The images in theleft shows how acutaway is used inan interview.
