I think my co-pro and I conducted over 15 interviews tonight. We interviewed every type of person in every place. I learned a lot in my adventure tonight.
1. 86.3% of people at Pomona are awkward, especially when they have a camera thrown in their face. Many people answer questions in two words and clam up when the camera turns on.
2. Interviewing friends in pairs is awesome. Friends have a tendency to feed off of each other and answer in complete thoughts and sentences. Furthermore, they offer longer answers and do not seem as frightened by the camera.
3. People take the questions to literally for the most part. The off the cuff, kind of strange, responses we got ended up being the best.
4. People are usually in a rush when they are walking around and it is better to initiate a conversation with someone who is sitting down.
5. I hope this ends up being as funny as it was to hear these responses. Also, as a side note, interviews in the bathroom are strange and should not be repeated.

Dinner Conversation = Great Idea
Well, last night I ate dinner with my co-pro (Co-Producer) and a bunch of friends and we came up with a great idea to interview people: the bathroom. Now, this might seem strange / weird / creepy and I think that this idea warrants that kind of response. However, it will also be quite possibly the funniest part of the whole series. We can hold toilet paper ransom for answers to questions. Think of all the possibilities...
P.S. - Filming starts tomorrow.

Interview Supplement
I have probably been watching too much of The Office this weekend, but I want to add some random interviews to the process. Maybe by throwing in random questions about nothing and filming responses I could make a decent outtake video.
I have always wanted to make a TV Show and maybe this could be my secret backdoor entrance into the business...
