RESEARCH & SETTING UP INTERVIEWS



Crews worked hard to research their topics and indentify community experts. Crews hit the phones to set up interviews and learned that persistancy is needed to get through phone selection menus, receptionists, commissions, program divisions and web sites to find the right people, the available people and the folks who know what they are talking about. Then and only then, can the crew set up an interview and begin to define shots and interview questions. Documentary video making is hard work!

Real Reality TV crews are passing the test. Look out community and experts, because this is where you are apart of production and your voice matters.
