Anonymous Interview

To break up the Mr Scully interview we felt another interview was needed. It was only to be short but was to be about the content Mr Scully talks about. Unfortunately our actress wasn't available in the time frame we needed to film it. I had to take part and act as a school girl who had been bullied in the toilets. We used the media room to film with the HD pocket camcorder and tripod for our equipment. We decided that an anonymous interview would be a good convention to use at this point. It is frequently used when making documentaries as many people don't want their identity revealed. As we had practised interview techniques and editing them before we knew that it is hard to make it dark without having a plain black screen. By going in the media studies classroom and shutting the blinds and turning off the lights the room became pitch black. We then turned on a computer screen and sat a chair infront of it. I sat with my back to the light so my silhouette was shown. The screen shines blue light but we didn't feel this was a bad thing as my identity was hidden which is the aim.
