Scene to read · Professionalism, Collaboration

What counts as complete?

You are a volunteer interviewer helping prepare your recording for the archive's public listening collection.

In a neighborhood history archive reading room, coordinator Lisette, 52, meets Lorcan, 65, whose late mother gave you a fully consented interview—the only account of a closed local factory. Lorcan proposes restricting the original and publishing a family-edited version without a passage about living relatives. He wants it labeled the complete interview so listeners won't speculate about omissions; Lisette wants a public version ready for the factory anniversary.

The scene

Lisette: Keeping the original restricted could protect your family without losing her account.

Lorcan: But calling ours an excerpt invites questions about what's missing and why.

Lisette: Calling it complete isn't accurate, even if we preserve the original privately.

Lorcan: Could we explain the editing without pointing everyone toward my family's passage?

The two questions

  1. 1What would you suggest for the public recording and its label, and how would you work with Lisette and Lorcan?
  2. 2Tell us about a time you negotiated how shared work would be presented while maintaining accuracy and a working relationship.
