Instructions about the interview:

From research, it became very clear to me the type of layout used in a magazine
interview. Various of the magazine interviews had similar layout/structure. For example,
through out the research I noticed that music magazine interviews had; clear background
information about the artist, the also give a clear information about how they met the
artist/how the interview came about(to give the reader a bit of information). Furthermore,
most of the magazine interview follow the question and answer setup in order to make it
clear and very understanding to the reader. The research carried out as inspired me and
given me an idea of how to layout my interview.

During the interview I will love to make the voice of my artist clear to the audience and by
doing this, I will include some of their vocabulary to make it clear/give the reader an idea
of where the artist is originate from.
Prior to the interview:
Before the interview, the interviewer will need to have a clear background information about
the artist they are going to interview.

Adrielle Smith burst onto the music scene in 2012 when
she was discovered by the biggest rapper in the game
Jay Z. We meet on 31st October, Halloween. She arrives
bursting to tell me about the costume she’s just bought:
‘It’s crazy.’ It’s her first time being interviewed for C-Lest

Instagram picture for all my fans to see’.
