Preliminary task: production plan

This weekend I plan to film an interview for my documentary with one of my closest friends who I feel would give a greater insight into my topic. I plan to conduct the interview on the 12th of February 2023. The venue will be his house. Firstly I plan to set up the lighting, depending on whether he is anonymous or not. I plan to ask him a list of open-ended questions including-

How do you believe the scaling issue of declining male mental health can be resolved?

However, I would also like to ask some more personal questions about his recent experiences that may have had an effect on his mental health. Of course,
any piece of information he wishes to not be disclosed will not be made public.

This is the sort of style of establishing shot that I would wish to create. I believe it really creates a sense of calm among the audience. ...
