And be a good listener! Don't just ask questions that you write down, ask follow up questions.

If you can, do a test recording in your recoding location to make sure your ears aren't missing what the microphone won't., such as HVAC systems. Your brain might be totally filtering out the gentle humming sound that is hitting your ears, but your microphone will probably capture the sound of that hot or cold air perfectly.

My problem is getting the interview in the first place. I'm just an aspiring journalist and I'm trying to write an article for my college assignment, I've sent emails and have had nothing back. I get the feeling that because I'm small potatoes right now, no one wants to give me the time of day. Any advice?
