Preliminary Task- Improved questions

 

We spoke to Mr. Armstrong about our questions and were told that they were too basic. So, we ha

decided to focus on the emotional side of having a twin. This was the feedback we were given.

Q2:- do they experience 'Twintuition'? (look it up)

 

For example, when a woman fell down the stairs and injured her knee, her womb sister felt a terrible pain in the same leg, at the same time, even though she was halfway across the world.

So, I really think you need a question, (like the one above), that gives us the audience the answer that this is a unique and special relationship. Only 4% of the world's population are twins, that's pretty unique and very often it seems those relationships with the person 'with whom you shared a womb', are remarkably close and intuitive....that's what we need the interview to get at...the specialness of it!

-I think if you get a good answer to Q2 , Q3 will become redundant. I think Q6, (assuming they are matching twins, as the question implies), could come directly after Q1.

-I would suggest some detailed research/background reading into twins and their relationships.

-I think you also need to be sure that your interviewee brings along a range of photos of themselves and their twin, from newborn to present day...you'll need these as illustrative material for when you edit. You're telling a journalistic story backed up with images...how will the images enhance, embellish and really help to tell that story?

-If your interviewee talks at some stage about twins in general, is there generic footage you can access to help illustrate those points? Youtube? Is there a twins society?

So, we have added an extra question. Do you ever feel trapped? we hope that this question will allow Katie to express a more emotional side.
