Stuff we have done

We found this great site on Bourke street, the old half of myer was being are torn down but the certain structures were still required by the Heritage Register to be present, according to the builders we talked to.

We also did our first interview with Mike. Unfortunately, Lorna wasn't present and so we only had the opportunity to speak to him.

As discussed in the last post, we were going for a more emotional approach to our documentary. However, as Shushan was interviewing Mike, I realised that his answers to her questions were very technical. Even when she tried to explore something that couldn't be explained technically, he still gave a very textbook answer. Yet at the same time, he was asking us what we wanted him to say...

It was an example of how hard an interview could go. It was really hard directing and steering him in the right direction.

As I was struggling with the boom mike, I was hoping he would speed up his answers and get to the good bits!!

Well, not to fret, we still have Lorna! We met her briefly and she seems to be more emotive. Hopefully we will go better when we interview her!
