Photos from our questionnaire filming task.


Today we asked random people to answer a few questions from our groups questionnaire, which we designed last week. We decided to deliver this questionnaire in a box-pop style. So, we filmed the whole questionnaire sessions. This was so we could accurately retain their answers and also show the data we found on a different digital platform. When we edit the footage, we will show the question which we asked the interviewees, by displaying credits on screen. Then we'll show their answers through HD film. We'll cut between each interviewees answers so that we won't repeat the same question over and over. This will keep the interview interesting to watch, and easy to follow.   

Before filming, I set the camera and tripod to face the person we were questioning. Each time I set the tripod to the same height as the interviewee. This was because our group wanted to maintain a formulae of the angles used in attempt to create a professionally delivered interview. As i was doing this my group member gave our short films synopsis to the interviewee and told them to read it and become familiar with it, because they will be answering questions based on our short film, and short films in general. 

Once the HD camera and tripod was set up and ready to record and the interviewee had become familiar with our short films synopsis, we were ready to film. Whilst I framed and recorded the shot, my group member read out a question which the interviewee then answered. Although we weren't going to include the question verbally in our final produt, the reason we recorded the question aswell as the answer was to make it as natural as possible for each interviewee so that they could reply confidently and it would seem like a normal conversation to them. We wanted to make the process as natural as possible to retain the best answers from the interviewees as we could.
