Question Types.

When making a documentary it is important to carefuly chose the questions, if we were to go to the interview without having prepared the questions properly we could get half answers or unneeded answers and this could be the difference between a good documentary and an unusable documentary.
Therefore I have looked at the different types of question we can use and how we would use them in a documentary (if it is even suitible for the documentary).

Open Questions
An open question does not allow for single word answeres, this type of question is used to make the subject offer more information to us than "Yes" or "No". an open question will often lead to them being able to talk about another related subject as they expand upon what they are saying.
For our Documentary we would use a question like
"What is your biggest worry regarding the struggle between career and Liam?".

Closed Questions.
A closed question can usualy be answered in one word and although it is not often that used in documenataries due to the fact that it offers very little information it still has it's place. We are going to try and not use closed questions in our documentary but if we were to use on it might be something like:
"How old is Liam?" this offers a very limited answere one of the longest being "Liam is ....... yeard old, in (Sepetember? October?)"

Hypothetical qeustions.
Hypothetical qeustions are questions where the subject is asked to imagine a situation and reflect upon it. This helps to get a better sense of who the subject is. In our case we may ask something like
"Where do you see the band being in 10 years?"
this then offers him the choice to give his thoughts, hope and fears for the situation.
