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,

• 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.
•
