Street Interviews 101
In life, we often come across many different kinds of people. From the most intelligent and wise to the utterly deranged and schizophrenic. These people tend to be elusive, but not to the camera of interviewers.
What’s the difference between street interviews and regular interviews?
Interviews are often conducted on wise intelligent people who hold positions of power or have significant contributions in society. These interviews often provide insight into their minds and tell us how these influential people achieved their goals. But what if instead of being educational or insightful, it is crazy and random instead? Well then dear reader, you are looking for street interviews, uncensored, weird, and sometimes downright deranged.
How do these interviews work?
The interviewers frequent public places where they are likely to stumble upon folks with interesting opinions due to the sheer number of people there. Upon making contact, the interviewer asks their set of questions or asks for a take from the interviewee. The interviewee now has a choice, answer the question or do something completely unrelated. This creates a bizarre scenario for the interviewer and great entertainment value for the viewers.
Oftentimes, the channels responsible for these interviews would add subtle edits to enhance the already hilarious content of the interview.
Why are these interviews so popular?
