The Interview Secret
Eye Level
Position the camera at eye-level with your subject. Don't look down on them or up at them.
Audio is Key
Find a quiet spot. If the viewer can't hear the story, the video fails. Check your levels in CapCut!
Open Questions
Don't ask "Yes/No" questions. Ask: "Tell me about..." or "How does it feel to..."
Rule of Thirds
Place your subject slightly to the left or right, not dead-center.
The CapCut Workflow
Trim & Snap
Cut out the "ums" and "ahs." Keep the pacing tight—no shot should last more than 4 seconds.
Overlay PR
Add your Canva Logo in the corner. Use Lower Thirds to display the person's name and title.
Soundscape
Add background music at -20db so it doesn't drown out the interview. Use Fade In/Out.
