Purpose of Interview 1:
What is the purpose of this interview?
The main purpose of this interview is to give watchers a view of artists who are not well known get
their music published and gain new fans, how they communicate with their fans and how they
setup live performances, this will also give us an idea of how new artists can start their career in
the music industry.
Add research demonstrating the format of this interview (ie a magazine layout, or an interview chat
show on TV)
Production Booklet
Production Booklet
In what medium (audio, visual, written etc.) will the final interview be presented?
The interview will be recorded in both an audio and video interview.
Describe how you are planning on contacting and liaising with your talent (interviewee)
We have contacted the person organizing the event and have made sure that bands are available
to interview on location, we will ask the person if they are willing to be interviewed on location
when we are there as it will promote their band to be in an interview.
How will you make sure unnecessary sounds etc are not recorded?
We are making sure that there are two microphones next to the interviewer and the people being
interviewed so as not to pick up background noise we also have a place reserved for recording
away from background noise.
If visual recording, explain how you will deal with any issues caused by ambient light.
We are recording in an area we already have reserved so we can set up lighting before the
recording so that the lighting looks good.

What will your interview style be? (Formal, informal and chatty, intense, questioning,
argumentative, friendly, jokey)
We have decided to go for a more informal style when recording our interviews.
Why have you chosen that style?
We chose to do this as because we are discussing the topic of the music industry, music is
something that people mostly only listen to for enjoyment, meaning it is more of a casual style and
not highly debating.
Add research of other interview/chat shows where the presenter has a similar style. You can insert
another page here for your research.
