AUDIO
• Get mic/recorder close to the subject (8-10 inches)
• Don’t rely on your ears
• Beware of background noise
• Quiet is best
• Relevant ambient noise is OK, too
• Hold the recorder (still)
• Don’t give the recorder to the subject
• If using a phone, put it in “airplane mode” to prevent interruptions during interviews

AUDIO
• Consider the end product
• Talk to the person beforehand, but not too much
• Have person say their name and the thing you’re interviewing them about
• (i.e., “My name is Jane Jones and I organize the BG Labor day Parade”)
