From doing a practice interview with classmates in class, I learned that listening is a very important skill when interviewing, especially if you have few or even only one question prepared. Also, I learned from doing a practice interview that it is very important to start the interview with asking broad, open-ended questions, such as "tell be about" questions, that can later lead to a more specific topic of conversation for the interview. Also, from watching various videos about interviewing skills, I learned that the interviewee must not look at the camera, rather off to the side, because the interview should be depicted as a conversation that should be "quoted" by the audience in a way. In addition, I learned that location and the process of setting up before the interview is almost as important, if not equally as important, as the questions being asked and the interview itself. For example, it's important that the lighting is good when you are filming, and that the contrast between the subject and the light in the shot is not too drastic.
