Filming an interview is a powerful way to share your story, present your brand, or showcase your expertise. In a city like New York, thoughtful preparation is essential. The Studio 44 Production team put together a short guide to help you achieve a clean, professional, and engaging on-camera interview.

1. Choose the Right Location First

A professional studio gives you:

• clean audio,

• controlled lighting,

• stable, high-quality equipment,

• no unexpected interruptions.

If you don't have your own location in NYC, Studio 44 Production  will gladly help you choose one is fully equipped for any interview format — expert, promotional, storytelling, or documentary.

2. Prepare Your Look

Best choices:

• neutral or calm colors,

• matte fabrics,

• no small patterns or reflective accessories.

Avoid bright white and all-black outfits — cameras don’t handle them well.

3. Prepare Your Talking Points

Write down 5–7 key ideas.

Practice saying them out loud — ideally in front of your phone camera.

Don’t memorize your text word-for-word; a natural delivery always works best.

4. Define Your Core Messages

If your interview aims to promote something:

• choose 2–3 key phrases,

• decide what you want viewers to remember,

• prepare a clear call-to-action.

This improves viewer engagement and boosts your SEO when the video is posted on your site.

5. New York Noise: Use It or Work Around It

New York never gets quiet — sirens, traffic, music, street energy. Noise is part of the city’s identity, and the key is knowing how to handle it.

When noise works against you:

• background sounds can contaminate your audio and make speech less clear.

When noise works for you:

• the NYC atmosphere adds authenticity and dynamic energy,

• ideal for lifestyle or documentary-style interviews.

Studio 44 Production Tip:

Record your main audio in a studio, and use outdoor shots as stylish supporting visuals.
