Production approach
Plan the film before the camera arrives.
The scope follows the audience, intended use, locations, contributors and delivery formats. These are agreed before the filming schedule is fixed.
Interview purpose
Set the audience, central message and useful themes before writing questions or choosing contributors.
A comfortable recording
Plan the room, lighting, eyeline and sound so contributors can concentrate on the conversation rather than the equipment.
Evidence around the interview
Capture the workplace, people, process or service so the finished edit can show what the contributor is describing.
Deliverables
Files prepared for their real destination.

Do contributors need to memorise a script?
Usually not. A planned conversation and well-structured questions often produce a more natural result. Any essential wording can be handled separately when accuracy is critical.
Can several interviews be filmed in one day?
Yes, when the schedule, location and setup allow. Contributor timings and the supporting footage needed around them should be planned in advance.
Can you film at our workplace?
Yes. John brings a compact interview, lighting and audio setup to workplaces and other agreed locations across Scotland and the UK.
Can short clips be supplied as well?
Yes. Short extracts, captions and platform-specific versions can be included in the agreed deliverables.
