- Eliminate ALL distractions!
- You control the interview, not the interviewee.
- Have a clear list of questions
- Listen to your interview - whilst recording and of course during the editing process. i.e. - at start of edit. Half way into the edit and then one last listen to make sure nothing is missing.
- Put some music behind the edit, even if it's not the final music it will show you some sense of flow. (This helps to give you a feeling of achievement cause it starts to look and feel like a film)
- look at the questions for common threads. Why am I asking this question? If I was to group theses questions together what would they be saying overall.

doco construction set.
It has been suggested that i journel my documentary making process so i can remember what to do next time. During the course of making my first film I learn't a lot, and now i am working on the next two films the things i am learning and remembering may just come in handy. I will keep adding to this as i realise stuff,

Hi Jerel I am fascinated with the creative process and how it is unfolding for you. I think in many ways the creative process, whilst unique to each of us, also possesses a common thread - and I am of the view that not only will you benefit from documenting your process as it unfolds, but so will you readers, since it can also inform their understanding of how to trust their own process. Thanks again.
