Blog 4: Interview Preparation

1. I plan to interview my aunt, Violeta Duran, who also happens to be my contact for my summer mentorship. I plan on interviewing her because she is experienced in the film making industry, and I know she could help provide me with some insight on my topic. 
2. Additional questions I plan on asking:

• How would you define independent film? Do you believe the term applies to how the film was financed, or the content of the film?
• Does co-financing generally constitute profit boosts in films?
• In what ways have independent films shaped our lives and society as a whole?
• Would you say that independent films have created a culture that many tend to overlook, or that it gives anyone with a camera and an imaginative idea they want to express an outlet to do so?
• What are some independent films that you would recommend?
