This interview was probably the most awkward one out of all of them being that I was interviewing my own mum and the topic was about me. I felt this could have gone better if I’d of had one of the other members of the team on Skype etc to help feed me questions to ask.

Michelle Baynham from SpeechLincs

This interview went well, I was nervous though due to Michelle having had experience of working with ‘proper’ journalists, furthermore we also ran out of questions meaning that some of the questions that I asked weren’t relevant. However it turned out alright and we got Michelle to do exercises which we hope the listener will engage with.

Ben Cheney

This was probably one of the best interviews I did and it shows in the audio, as I come across confidently and don’t yabber on like for some of them I did. Alongside this I also found Ben’s story very interesting and as a result was more engrossed in the interviews.

Di Vaughan from SocialPaws

Interviewing Di was interesting, as we had no clue what to expect, we didn’t even know if she was blind or fully sighted. However, the questions that me and Molly asked were relevant and what we discussed was used heavily throughout the sight episode and despite the awkward start, it became easier as I went on.

Lincoln and Lindsey Blind Society

Again we didn’t know what to expect in this interview, it turned out to be a group of people and as a result, we got the best content out of it that we could have done.  As we grew in our confidence we also became more audacious in our questions.

Lincoln Children’s Deaf Society-

For this one, we knew there would be a mixture of children and Adults, something we hadn’t previously experienced and as result, this didn’t go as well as it could have done. Both me and Molly were fine talking to the parents but interviewing the children was something that we struggled with

George from Allhear

George’s interview was very successful and quite productive in terms of content as he talked about a wide variety of topics and was interesting, we did, however, forget the zoom recorder meaning we had to use a phone and this has compromised the quality.

Megan Astill

For Megan’s interview, I was ‘a mess’ as i struggled to think on my feet without Molly feeding questions to me, yet the interview worked out well and what we discussed was used.
