Where about did you do the interview? Looked like very nice location, it was good hearing all the background noise. Did it put you off at all?

Awesome job guys. Really enjoyed the interview. Hats off to the graphics and production quality. Top notch. I appreciated his candid comments. Why can't anyone at FOX pronounce 'nuclear' correctly? Everyone says 'nuculear'.

Glad you are all enjoying it! Jon really is a genuine nice guy and still a big fan of 24!

The interview was filmed at Calabasas Commons at the Mi Piace (Italian Restaurant) A very nice area, Jon chose the area, we chose the the cafe/restaurant.

The background noise didn't put us off, if anything if made the interview much more informal and relaxed. Their was a few shots where people were staring right at the camera but we weren't aware of it at the time.

We used this location for another interview.

Loved the use of the boxes at the start. But I have to say the 24 fan in me wishes you used them more during the interview.
For future interviews I'd also randomly show a clock (24 style) with the time of when you were talking. Small stuff like that just makes you a bit more appreciative that it's more than just audio.

As for the interview itself, very interesting. I'd say the best one to date.

have to agree - seems more the podcast environment which i think is the best way to do it!

Yeah we did talk about using it more in the first interview, bit didn't want to fall in the trap of over using it. When used it 24 it is always for a purpose.

So that's what we were going for, in some of the interviews however it will be used more for reasons you will see, and even more so during set tour and on location when it should look really good.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Also wanted to say what a great interview - and he really does seem a genuine and enthusiastic guys. Follow him on Twitter and he's pretty interesting.

Out of interest, what software do you use for the video? Looks very professional!

Final Cut Pro to edit the interviews, and Nawaz does the titles using After Effects and 3D Studio Max.

He does an amazing job, and I think we pulled off post production on the interview
