WEBINAR WORKSHOP

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Scott teaches not only how to set up the gear to record an interview, but more importantly, how to connect with the interviewee and allow for authentic responses to lead the narrative. Asking questions is one thing, but adjusting the questions on the fly or listening to keywords the interviewee says to revise the questions and direction is the key to a successful interview.
