This blog post will show how I made a video of the immigration story on Zheng Wang, the interview and finally the questions. Like how she got to America and what it was like for her. Another thing you will see is how I interviewed her. This is how I felt about the immigration video and what I found interesting.
I prepared the interview by thinking about the questions. For example I couldn’t ask if you were an immigrant or not because 1 we already know the answer 2 they would only say yes or no which is not a lot of information. So I had to think about questions that would give lots of info. For example, I couldn’t ask something like do you like america. It has to be something like what kind of travel did you use? So I talked to my mom about the interview and she said yes to the interview. We were gonna talk about it in person with a video recording. She said all kinds of interesting things. The most interesting thing was that she only drank water and ate bread to save money for her parents. That bring us to the video
The challenge part was the video I had a very hard time with script because I had to time each one of the slides and then I had to add photos to the slides accordingly then we had to make sure that it was six second or lower but above four seconds I kept on trying to squeeze lots of information in each slide which didn’t work then I tried spreading them out alot witch didn’t work again. In the end I was able to do it then the video for the ones I didn’t have photos for I had to look for stock photos that worked the voice over was the harder part because I kept on stumbling on my words and my sister kept on shouting in the background but in the end I got it somehow.
In the end it was a fun experience as a school project I liked it but it had major downsides to I would recommend it if you had a lot of extra time because it is time consuming I thank my mom and my brother for helping me even though my brother didn’t help a lot that is the end of my blog post.
