Cool turnaround with Stro's sis. I luv it when an interview goes from crap to gems like that.
As for the HK commentary, I had the same issue working with Gigi for the last 18 years. At least HK is a fencer and knew Stro. Gigi went off in horrid tape-wasting tangents, and often in Mandarin without bothering to translate. Eventually I stopped recording Mandarin interviews because it was such a waste of my time. Now I just scribble notes. Keep in mind, Gigi is NOT a martial artist, so often her tangents revealed her naïveté. I don't know how many times I've had interviewees look at me after some thoughtless question with that expression of 'srsly?'
Alas, creative partners. I feel your frustrations.
