Effective handling of both live and taped television interviews is crucial. A booker will usually review prior interviews before making a decision to book a guest. A solid TV track record may lead to additional interviews whereas a poor interview may result in missed opportunities. Television media training will cover the following:
- Live interview preparation to simulate interview scenarios with a live host.
- Camera only interview preparation to simulate an interview done via satellite hook up when a guest cannot see the host.
Emphasis on the following areas:
- Message consistency
- Body language,
- Eye contact,
- Sound bites,
- Hostile or uninterested host
Training sessions are recorded for review and analysis.
