Talking head, usually it is just me so locking focus and setting everything up is easier than constantly moving and changing stuff by myself. When I have tried other styles and I ask them questions it distracts them or me so I did not hear what they said. Can we get a interview challenge?

Thanks for the heads-up!

Thanks for the advice. I have a couple interviews where I just let them ramble and now I'm challenged to pull out the right material. I'll go in with a plan and a set of questions next time!

Great video Mark! I've shot so many interviews over the years in the various styles you mention and I am huge fan of that passive floating observer style. I love how Chefs Table or the Abstract series mixes this style with unique framing for talking heads. I just had to shoot a two person, three camera interview last week during the Covid lock down with celebrity talent. NO ONE was allowed to be on set while the talent was on set so we were forced to set up three remote operated heads that were locked down on sticks. It all ended up working out great and I actually think that the lack of people on set allowed us to get a more authentic and warm conversation from the two talent. Interesting times!

Thank you kindly for your generous advice.

1. In the moment Passive 2. In the moment Active 3. Talking Head 4. Voice Over. I learnt alot in this video. Thank you Mark

Nice video Mark. Thanks for taking the time to break this down. I like to use an interview technique which is probably somewhere between In The Moment Passive and Active where I get the person to carry out a task or activity relevant to what they do and the story and then i get them to talk about stuff whilst doing it. Not necessarily about what they’re doing but usually about bigger ideas that motivate them or reflecting on something in their life. So it’s probably a talking head but in the style of In the Moment. Keep making your great content
