PRP: Artefact 1 - The Interview Questions

Below, are the questions I intend to ask the interviewees:

  1. Why did you choose to study Multimedia? Did you always think you would? What kind of subjects did you study at school and college?
  2. What considerations, thoughts and concerns did you have about studying Multimedia? Did you think it would be technical, creative or both? Did you ever consider it a boy's subject?
  3. Do you think there are well known and recognised women in the Multimedia Industry? Do you know their names? Are they established?
  4. I have seen various women's' names in credits etc however they don't seem to be as publicised. All the big names tend to be men to me, how do you feel about this?
  5. Do you idealise a woman artist / creator, do you look up to anyone as a role model? Has anyone's work influenced you so much to convince you to enter the industry?
  6. Do you feel intimidated when you are around technology? Does this change when there are more or less men around you?
  7. Do you feel challenged by technology?
  8. There have always been issues and debates about women in Science Engineering and Technology (SET). What do you have to say about that statement?
  9. It's actually women who take on roles that they are expected to. They stop themselves from climbing further up the ladder. It's their attitude and assumptions...not the society. What do you have to say about these statements? Do you think they're true?
  10. What profession do you see yourself in once you graduate? a) See yourself? b) Would like to be in? Are A and B the same?
  11. If A and B are different why do you think this is? The desirable seems to be unachievable? Do you have a back-up profession, why?
  12. Do you feel like you fulfil certain roles or are better at certain roles because you're expected to?
  13. Do you think women always deal with particular subjects or follow a certain style for example activism and feminism?
