Interview with Russell Brand

                                        

The interview between Russell brand and Paxman is a political and informational interview. 
The whole purpose of the interview between Russell Brand and Paxmam is to gain information as well as listen to his opinion about him featuring in a political article talking about todays government.
Starting with an open question, Paxman is allowing Russell Brand to explain himself about the political magazine. By doing this Paxman is hearing out Russell Brands opinion about politics and his political ideas for change. From the interview between Russell brand and Paxmam, you can see that it is a very light hearted interview as Russell Brand himself is not a politician and is talking about politics from his point of view. This helps promote Russell Brand and his article in a political magazine about his views on the government today. From Paxman's view on the points Russell Brand is stating, Paxman believes what he is saying is a 'revolution'. By listening to the pod cats of 'the art of the interview' it has allowed me to conduct different techniques in an interview, from this interview Paxman uses the rule of three, asking a direct question to Russell Brand continuously until Brand gets frustrated and answers the question, this is a very good way to make the interviewee feel pressured into answering the question in this style of interviewing. When interviewing Russell Brand, Paxman uses open questions to let him explain himself and his opinuion about politics, this allows Russell to explain himself in more depth. This interview was informational to an audiance about politics, but not all interviews are ment to be for political reasons and are intended to be hard news, but also for entertainment, asking a celebrity about there views on certain events or gossip happening. For example the Ellen show involving different famous people and talking about their personal life, who they are dating and information about thier recent work.
