CCR production ideas

Friday March 6, 2026

-----------------------

Now within my past posts, I have gone into a good amount of detail as to what I want to do with my CCRs. I have already shot my first video, which will be a director commentary, but I sort of want it to have the same vibe as like GQ interview or a commonly asked questions where there is no host, just the person answering questions. I will most likely add different editing techniques to make it feel more interesting and dynamic, as well as adding the questions onto the screen with a rolling citations at the very end.

I talked about before how I wanted the information within the first two questions to be communicated to the audience in a good way. I think in doing the first video in this style adds more room for me to elaborate on the topic without having to bounce off another person (podcast, interview). I also want to incorporate a decent amount of cutaway content, like some scenes from my film, or BTS of shooting. In adding these cutaways, it makes it more engaging and appealing, keeping the audiences attention.

My Setup!

Regarding my second video, I have already wrote my scripts with a talk show type production in mind. I talked about before that my dad will be helping me with this video, as he will be playing the part of the host. I will start filming this weekend at my dads apartment, I wanted the setting to be clean and have some natural light. I also had an idea of adding a rolling credits/ citations providing my research and the host and guests name, making it like a real talk show. 

Now for this specific video, i'm still trying to decide how I am going to incorporate content from my film into it. I don't think that I am going to do any cutaway content because it wouldn't feel like a natural talk show environment, it is typically not seen to have cutaway content within the media sphere. I was thinking that I could print out some of these pictures to have them physical with the characters instead of added in.

I am in the process of filming and getting my CCRs shot in full, next week will be full of editing and stitching together the final pieces of my project. I am so excited to get all of my items finished and I can't wait to share them!
