Uncover the secrets behind a successful interview and learn how to create engaging content that captivates your target audience.
In this article, I will share the steps to conduct an interview with two personalities, exploring the key techniques to produce engaging and informative content for your audience.
To illustrate these steps, I will use as an example an interview produced by Bendita Filmes, in which we captured Alfonso Garcia, former CEO of the World Bank, and Cristina Junqueira, co-founder of NuBank.
1- Research and Preparation: Understand the Context
Before anything else, it's essential to conduct thorough research on the institutions and their leaders. Understanding their purposes, tone, and values will help shape the direction of the interview. Additionally, it's important to follow the color palette and develop an aesthetic that aligns with the portrayed environment.
2- Script and Questions: Create a Captivating Narrative
In the script, define the questions that will guide the interview. Create a logical narrative that fits the addressed context and meets your audience's expectations. It's crucial that the technical script be approved by the client before filming to avoid unwanted surprises.
