Memorable experiences
Use this section to share specific experiences you personally shared with the person being filmed that would be good to talk about in conversation. These can be meaningful moments or very ordinary ones. What matters is that you were there and remember it. Examples might include trips you took together, routines you shared, seasons of life you went through side by side, moments of challenge or celebration, inside jokes, work you did together, or times when you saw them at their best or most themselves. These are the kinds of experiences we can naturally ask about during an interview.
Characteristics
Use this space to describe the person’s character and personality as you have experienced it. Think about traits, habits, values, or patterns that consistently show up in how they live, work, or relate to others. These can be strengths, quirks, or contradictions. What matters most is how you would naturally describe them to someone who has never met them.
Impact
Use this section to share how this person has influenced you or others. This might include lessons they taught, support they gave, examples they set, or ways they changed how you think or live. Personal impact is especially helpful, even if it feels small or informal.
Stories you would like to know more about
Use this space to note stories, events, or parts of the person’s life that you have heard about but never fully understood, or things you have always been curious about. These might be half-told family stories, moments from before you knew them well, or chapters people reference without much detail. This helps us know what areas may be worth gently exploring in conversation.
Favorite anecdotes
Any anecdotes that stand out? These might be moments people often retell, family stories that always get a laugh, or situations that say a lot about who they are. They do not need to be dramatic or perfectly remembered. If it is a story you would naturally tell about them, it works here.
Subjects to be avoided
Use this space to note stories, events, or parts of the person’s life that you have heard about but never fully understood, or things you have always been curious about. These might be half-told family stories, moments from before you knew them well, or chapters people reference without much detail. This helps us know what areas may be worth gently exploring in conversation.
What are we missing?
Use this space for anything that has not been covered elsewhere but feels important to mention. This might be a story, detail, relationship, or observation you would be surprised not to hear discussed. If there is something you kept thinking, “I’m not sure where this fits,” it likely belongs here.
