Silver Award in Q&A Intereview for “Getting to Know Dorien Watson”
“This fun and surprisingly in-depth interview showed care and research on the part of the interviewer, to capture various aspects of its 13-year-old actor subject. It’s clear from the questions that this was an interactive and fluid interview, but the interviewer maintained a clear direction and the questions all flow together well.”
