 So for my interview I decided to call up my brother-in-law because I was curious to hear his perspective on the 15 months him and my sister spent in Honduras. I was surprised about how easy it was to lead the him in the direction of conversation that I wanted to hear about. The Interview went really well and I got a lot of good material and ancedotes about their time there. I learned a good amount about the process of transcribing an interview and the difficulties in accurately quoting the interviewee. I enjoyed being able to rearrange excerpts from the interview in order to better tell their story. Learning how to phrase your questions in order to get a response similar to what you want is key to having a successful interview.
