Interview Description Assignment
In order to consider a plurality of responses and learn about working with primary source material within the process of devising performances, you will interview a fellow undergraduate who is:
• 18 years of age or older
• Not a member of this class.
As a class, we will collectively generate an interview protocol of 6-8 questions for everyone to use, so that everyone (roughly) conducts the 'same' interview; this protocol will be emailed to you.
You do not need to audio record or transcribe the interview. Instead, please turn in a description of the interview experience and the interviewee’s central thoughts. Your description should be typed, ~250 words, and address the following: (a) When and where did the interview take place? (b) Describe the interviewee (although do not include his/her name); and (c) What were some key thoughts or ideas your interviewee expressed? Please include one brief quote.
