In my summer task my main aim was figuring out a different perspective on friendship, I did this by asking a close friend multiple questions about her views and thoughts on particular situations involving friendship. I asked how she observes others in a friendship and how they present their friendship, also how she projects hers onto others and how its shown.
The language used in my interview was based in a Q and A format, I used a main image which captured our friendship and revolved my questions around that. I used colours and highlighted certain sentences to make them stand out more as they were more straight forward and short answered.
In this interview, friendship is portrayed as accepting and understandable whilst being trustworthy and respectable. My friend who I interviewed (Adora) is not a stereotypical teen as she gets involved with anything she can get her hands on which shows she is reactionary.
