# Interview Design — Documentary Interview Design Methodology

Specialized knowledge used by the interviewer agent when selecting interview subjects and designing questions.

## Why Interview Design Matters

In documentaries, interviews are the **core device that breathes life into facts through human voices**. Statistics are understood with the mind, but one word from a firsthand witness strikes the heart.

## Interviewee Selection: VOICE Matrix

| Role | Why Needed | How to Find | Count |
|------|-----------|-------------|-------|
| **V**ictim/Protagonist | Direct party to the subject, emotional core | Communities, support organizations | 1-3 |
| **O**bserver | Objective perspective, eyewitness | Neighbors, colleagues, bystanders | 1-2 |
