[Journalists] my rough draft

[Kristina Arntz]

Obviously I'm going to fill in all of my personal info and the name of the person.  But I wanted to post what I have so far, and see if any of you have any revisions or tips for the letter and/or the questions?  I feel as though some of my paragraphs in the letter are too short, especialy the intro paragraph. and I think my questions aren't organized very well.
   
  thanks in advance,
  Kristina

  Dear Mr. last name,
   
              It was lovely being able to meet you at the TWF in March.  I’m including a few photos that were taken at the event, in case you might remember me.  Thank you for the CD’s and postcard you sent recently. 
              I’m working on shooting a documentary for my Broadcast Journalism 401 class.  Since my interest is to become an entertainment reporter, I am creating a documentary in which I interview celebrities.  I would like to use this opportunity to extend a formal request to invite you to take part in an interview.  For the interview I am interested in finding out about your involvement in the recent documentary DA, as well as your own published experience with interview celebrities.  With this request I am also including a list of possible questions, however the conversation could work itself around to other questions.
              If you are interested in setting up an interview or have any questions, please contact me using any of the included methods of contact.
   
  Sincerely,
   
    KA

  Questions: 
  How did you get involved in the documentary?
  What is the documentary about?
  Was it a formal interview?
  Why did you want to be a part of the documentary?
  Have you ever filmed a documentary?
  Are you a fan of documentaries?
  What subjects would you be interested in filming a documentary on?
  What career advice would you give me?
  What experience should I get?
  What publications have you submitted your conducted interviews to?
