Considerations


When interviewing someone there are always ethical considerations that should be taken into thought. These ethical considerations are especially important when dealing with certain audiences - such as the audience that we had with our refuge projects. In our case, Vanessa did not want to speak about her past in Congo, but more focus on her future. Though Vanessa said that we could use everything that we recorded, we felt that it was important and an ethical issue if we used a piece of the interview in which she spoke about a past experience in Congo. It is important to realize that once we hit "publish" the video was now accessible to the general public and anyone on the internet would have access to this video about Vanessa's life. As for theoretical usage, it was necessary that we use multimodal form, therefore the text and the video served as two platforms of the multimodal form.
