Replying to Need an Orange Name Filmer

So I am doing a senior culminating project for HS, and it involves me filming and editing some footage and "learning a new skill." I've never filmed or edited anything before and we're required to learn a new skill for the project so I figured what the hell I might as well start now... But I need to interview an "expert" or a professional in the field, so I thought I'd post this up and see if any of you might be interested. I don't have the questions yet but it'll just be like 10 questions about basic filming and editing shit, I will post them in the thread when I come up with them. Would probably take you 5 minutes to answer them and the more responses I get from experts or professionals the better my project will be. Thanks.
