221 INTERVIEWS

I N T E R V I E W S

I USED THE INTERVIEWS TO BEGIN WITH TO COVER THE DIGITAL ASPECT OF THE MAGAZINE HOWEVER WHEN FILMING MY FIRST INTERVIEW THE ANSWERS I WAS GETTING REALLY SUPPORTED AND UNDERLINED WHAT I HAD RESEARCHED AND BACKED UP MY NARRATIVE FOR MY DAZED X ROBBIE PROJECT. INTERVIEWING GEN Z TUNRED OUT TO BE THE TURNING POINT FOR MY PROJECT. THE INTERVIEWS PERFECTLY DEFINED THE ASPECT OF ROBBIE THAT I WANTED TO CAPTURE, RAW, AUTHENTIC, TRANSPARENT AND REALISTIC. THE INTERVIEWS MADE ME REALISE THAT EVERY GEN Z IS FEELING THE SAME, INCLUDING ME. LOST

QUESTIONS

DURING THE COURSE OF ASKING THE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS I RESPONDED TO WHAT THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME WAS SAYING. I DIDN’T WANT TO RIDGLY STICK TO THE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS THEY WERE MORE OF A GUIDE. WHEN THE INTERVIEWER SAID SOMETHING OF INTEREST I WOULD DELVE DEEPER AND ASK THEM ABOUT THEY SAID WHAT THEY SAID. IT HELPED MAINTAIN THE RELAXED AUTHENTIC FEELING.

COODIE & CHIKE

I BECAME INSPIRED BY JEEN - YUHS DOCUMENTARY ON NETFLIX PRODUCED BY COODIE AND CHIKE, FOLLOWING KANYE WEST’S LIFE AND RISE TO FAME. THE FOOTAGE IS KEPT AUTHENTIC AND TRANSPARENT, SOMETHING WHICH I ASPIRED TO DO IN THE INTERVIEWS. I PLANNED TO ADAPT THE STYLING OF ROBBIE SPENCERS SHOOT WITH FRANK OCEAN INTO VIDEOGRAPHY IN THE HOPE THAT IT WOULD UNDERPIN ALL MY RESEARCH SO FAR AND ASLO HELP ME INCORPORATE AN INTERACTIVE ELEMENT IN TO THE MAGAZINE FOR THE VIEWERS. IMAGINE OPENING THE MAGAZINE WITH FRANK OCEAN ON THE COVER AND THEN HIS INTERVIEW FOR THE MAGAZINE PLAYS ON THE FIRST PAGE.

RESPONSE TO INTERVIEWS

THE INITIAL RESPONSE TO THE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS GENERATION Z SEEMED STRESSED AND UNRELAXED, HOWEVER AS THE INTERVIEW WENT ON AND I TREAT IT MORE LIKE AN CONVERSATION THAN AN INTERVIEW THEY RELAXED AND THE INTERVIEW FLOWED MORE NATURALLY.
