SOME EXPLANATIONS

How to Conduct a TV Interview (tips you should keep in mind)

Know your subject. Investigate about the topic before asking questions. This way your questions will be more professional.
Prepare your subject. Let the interviewee have the chance to prepare for the questions you are going to ask. Give them a general idea or the key points of what they will be asked and the topics that will be covered.
Start slow. Ask simple questions, but make sure you cover the main points of the story.
Use active listening. Use your body language to indicate your attention and focus on the person you’re interviewing. Maintain eye contact and leave a small pause. It’s likely your interviewee has a few prepared answers, so give them a moment to try and fill the silence themselves.
Ask open-ended questions. Rather than searching for ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answers, ask questions that will lead to a story, or an emotional share.

TASK 3 (English) INDIVIDUAL
