A Question For You Tech Savvy Folks

[DavidMcmillan]

Is there some tech reason why so many interviews are done in a vehicle?

 

[Profreedomokie]

That is a very good question. I've noticed that on OAN sometimes.

 

[donner]

not entirely sure what medium you're referring to, but chances are it's the quietest place the person has access to. Or it could be a scheduling matter.

 

[Glocktogo]

Yes, you control environmental variables that could compromise the audio quality of the spoken words.

Maybe they do a session of carpool karaoke after the interview.

I haven't noticed so much any interviews involving a questioner and a person being questioned. As for such things as the social media methods, people can control their environment better in their car rather than elsewhere, but most of those are just commenting on current events.

Listening to people behind a desk is not as interesting as one in their car. Principals office comes to mind when someone is behind a desk.

Are we talking about an interview for a job, or people interviewing each other for a podcast etc?

I don't watch a whole lot of that stuff but talking to somebody in their car, Jay Leon comes to mind.
He always asks the person questions about their car and that makes it interesting.

It gives the viewer a sense of direction with plot and such, added that it is less maintenance than say a live set, cheaper costs involved and I would imagine if done with go pros or similar easy to edit.
