WK 7 25 Feb

Preparing for interviews

Gayle King

Overview

We prepare for our in-class interviews, which will take place on 3/18 and 3/25. NOTE: Each in-class interview is worth eight points, and your camera must be ON for the duration of both interviews. 


We discuss pitch topics for your final projects.


For our next class (in two weeks, after Mardi Gras), make sure you come ready to read from BOTH your two pitches AND the final question sets I'll send everyone this week, as we'll be workshopping them together.


Extra credit opportunity #1 is due today at the start of class.

Lecture / Q&A

What is the difference between a list of questions and an interview? Anticipating answers. When to leave your prepared questions behind. Silence.
