ePK / generic INTERVIEWING
Since 2017, I’ve been working freelance for ABC / Disney television, conducting interviews with their talent for Electronic Press Kits, content from which is picked up by various outlets all over the country. I really enjoy it.
As with all my interviews, the goal is to bring out the best in the interview subjects. Since it’s for promotional purposes, I’m not going for big scoops or asking people address some scandal, still, I strive to bring out their enthusiasm for the project and capture something that feels fresh, fun, thoughtful and alive.
Here are samples of finished pieces from various outlets featuring my EPK interviews.
