Creative Critical Reflection Ideas

So I’ve been thinking about how to answer some of these questions and I am going to do a talk show interview. The reasons for this are because:

1. I love talk shows

2. It’s a more natural way to give the explanation

3. It’s more visually engaging this way and it’ll help me not stare at the camera

I began to think about this in class when Mrs. Stoklosa was giving us some ideas during the lesson. I couldn’t help but think about the fun that Jimmy Fallon has interviewing his guests sometimes which are movie directors. One film director he has interviewed is Greta Gerwig:

In the interview they talk about things from her personal life to her work and make jokes and comments to keep the audience engaged. I really like how Jimmy Fallon seamlessly transports from one topic to another. When I am recording I will answer two questions in as much detail as possible and film from different angles and sides just how this show does. I also loved this idea because it can include different forms of media like photos of posters, sets, costumes and include video clips naturally making it easier to include various media forms and styles. It also makes this whole process feel like a real film with a premiere and a press tour. The editing for this video should also be fairly simple because it is mostly two people on the screen discussing with music in the background and a small microphone in front of them. In general, filming an interview where I can talk in depth about something I love that I put a lot of work into will be satisfying and exciting. The set I would use would be two sofas from my living room and a small table in front of the person who is interviewing me. AHHHH YAY. I am loving this whole process because I feel like I am learning so much. I know that all the hard work will pay off in the end so its a relaxing thing to know and to look forward to.
