Recording Effective Interviews P.1

One key tip when setting up an interview is make sure that the lights are set for the subject. When lighting different people one after another, you have to check and readjust your lights to make sure your new subject is correctly lit. Another thing to keep in mind is the amount of power that your set needs. If your lights draw too much power from the area your in, then you could blow a fuse and have an even bigger problem on your hands. Lastly, its important to test your equipment before you begin shooting an interview. Through testing, you could catch set mistakes that you didn't notice before or see if any of your equipment has a problem. Without doing these steps, your interview could fall apart.
