$60 members/ $120 non-members/ $50 DIY Member Bundle

At the heart of most documentaries is an interview. A well-lit interview with clean audio can elevate a film’s production value, while a poorly-lit and inaudible interview can spoil a promising story. In this workshop, we’ll show you the professional techniques to make your interviews look and sound their best. We’ll also cover composition, 3-point lighting, mic placement, and making sure you get good coverage. Strongly recommended for DIY Documentary students. Kia Anne Geraths has a BFA in Digital Film & Video from the Art Institute and works as a freelance digital media producer.
