1) I watch TV for a living. I watch a lot of television. It's my job to find the good stuff out there. Everyone knows good TV when they see it but not many can explain why it's good. The best way to learn this is to watch bad television. A lot of bad television. There is nothing like seeing bad content to place good content in relief.
2) When dealing with contracts always read everything twice.
3) When interviewing subjects remember that the interview is about them. Ask your question and let them talk. And don't forget to listen! They might say something cool.
4) When recording your interviews, make sure you nod your head rather than saying, "yes" or "hmmm". People don't want to hear your grunting.
