The 1-page-long document explores the Interrotron technique, popularised by documentary filmmaker Errol Morris, which allows for natural, engaging interviews by enabling subjects to maintain direct eye contact with the interviewer. This setup can be adapted for educational use, particularly for academics not accustomed to speaking directly into the camera. This resource covers the basic concept of the Interrotron, its application in teaching, and various DIY solutions. It also links to tutorials and resources for creating your own setup, enhancing the quality of media production in educational contexts.
