About this Event
Many of us, from historian and journalists to theatre and documentary makers, will find ourselves confronted with having to run an interview at some point in our course or career.
This workshop will introduce you to some of the things you need to consider in approaching and running an interview and will offer you some practical tips on how to ensure you can get what you need from an interview.
This will be a fun and informative workshop, so please come ready to get involved. Please bring 2 things with you:
1) Everyone has a story to tell so with one that you want to tell or a subject you are happy to talk to others about.
2) Think about a single extraordinary thing/fact about yourself that you can share in a single sentence.
