Profile on Interviews & Update

As group we tried to get good interviews for the documentary.

We contacted people through phone, email, visiting etc. We manage to get 6 in total. They were Noel Otley(Principal of Havering College F&H Education),Magaret Hodge (MP of Barking, Terry Justice (Chancellor of Dagenham and Rainham),Dave Wood(University Lecturer.

I tried to get interviews(through email,visitng,phone calls) with a bank manager, as they could inform of any support they provide for students and the borrowing of moneyand their views. Furthermore,I treid contact student unions such as NUS and MPs. It very hard to get in touch with them, in the end it did not work out.

I used these sites to get details.

Robin Wells (Mayor of Newham) interview did not turn out well, due to technical problems linking to the sound.After capturing the video, there was no sound, so we could not use that interview.

I could not use the interview with the postgraduate student as the tape was misplaced and has not been found since then. This affected my documentary in many ways, as I could not add essential points of view of a student who has been through the University experience and know the types of student support available. Also how they feel about the increase in tuition fees and how it may affect students wanting to apply.
