When you are being interviewed for television, where should you look? The reporter or at the camera?
Earlier this week, crisis communications expert Gerard Braud polled social media to ask, “When you are being interviewed for television, where should you look? The reporter or at the camera?” Experts in public relations and corporate communications have weighed in with their best tips and we want you to join in on the discussion. Watch the video to see if you agree with their comments.
Do you think that looking into the camera helps to express emotion? When should you look into the camera versus at the interviewer? Does it depend on the context of the interview? What if you are doing a satellite interview? Please weigh in with your thoughts!
