Trying to develop general directing confidence and practice shot composition. A friend and I will be conducting street interviews in a bar street in Cleveland.

Not going for anything incredible, just simply trying to get out there and put in some reps. Shooting with an A7R5, 20-70 f/4 with a hot shoe mic. I anticipate audio issues since the microphone will be relatively far from the talent, however I'm hoping I can stand relatively close.

Any general pointers for this type of project? Especially interview questions, topics, getting people to talk to us? etc. Will not be uploaded anywhere, just simply for practice.
