Question absurde? Pas si sûr au vu de la tenue, mauvaise, du micro par bon nombre de politiciens, sportifs, et même journalistes. Un micro peut posséder plusieurs directions de prise de son (monodirectionnel, bi, etc.). Partons donc du principe qu'il fonctionne de base via une ligne droite imaginaire qui part du sommet du micro. Il faut donc l'orienter vers votre bouche, tout simplement. Le micro se tient à un "ampan" de la bouche, c'est-à-dire à une distance de main (cf. illustration), pour éviter des basses labiales (les sons en P ou B) qui passent mal. Ne pas oublier que l'on a un micro pour répondre et donc ne pas bouger ses mains dans tous les sens. Un micro filaire peut également enregistrer des interférences liés au fil. Pour les éviter (uniquement en cas d'enregistrement), il suffit de faire une boucle avec le fil autour de sa main. Dernière remarque: un journaliste qui vous donne le micro est un mauvais journaliste. Il doit normalement (ou l'ingénieur son) se charger de la position et de la tenue du matériel audio (sauf micro-cravate ou dit fusil).

Absurd question? Not so sure, when we see a good number of people in politics, sports, even journalists who hold the microphone wrongly. A microphone can have multiple directions from where it records sound (unidirectional, bi, etc.). So let's assume that it works basically via an imaginary straight line that starts from the top of the microphone. It must therefore be directed towards the mouth. The microphone stands at an "ampan" of the mouth, that is, at a hand distance (see illustration), to avoid labial bass (sounds in P or B) that sound wrong. Do not forget that we have a microphone to answer and therefore we should not move our hands too much. A wired microphone can also record wire-related interferences. To avoid these (only in case of recording), simply make a loop with the thread around the hand. Last remark: a journalist who gives you the microphone is a bad journalist. He (or the sound engineer) must normally take care of the position and the holding of the audio material (except lapel microphone).

De manière générale, une interview ne se fait jamais en direct et une préparation est toujours possible avant de répondre aux questions du journaliste, sauf lors des reportages en plein événement (conférence de presse, manifestation...). Même pour la radio, lors d'un enregistrement par téléphone, il est possible de demander de rappeler plus tard afin de collecter des données et se préparer. C'est même indispensable pour un passage télévisuel puisque le journaliste peut difficilement monter ou modifier vos baffouilles et erreurs éventuelles comme dans l'écrit ou la radio. Surtout que de manière générale, le journalisme télévisuel est friand de ce genre d'errances venant de témoins.

In general, an interview is never done live and a preparation is always possible before answering the questions of the journalist, except during reporting in full event (press conference, event ...). Even for the radio, when recording over the phone, it is possible to request a later call to collect data and prepare. It is even essential for a television passage since the journalist can hardly erase or modify your stutters and possible errors like in writing or radio. Television journalism in general is especially fond of this kind of wanderings from subjects.
Comme le traitement de  l'interview se fait en général à postériori, n'hésitez pas à vous  reprendre, à  recommencer votre réponse pour être plus clair (ça marche  aussi en radio en cas d'enregistrement) ou à demander plus  d'information en cas de  question vague.

As the processing of the interview is usually done afterwards, do not hesitate to resume, to repeat your answer to be clearer (it works also in radio in case of recordings) or to request more information in case of vague question.

En cas d'intervention filmée, l'image renvoyée est tout autant importante que les propos tenus. Evitez de croiser les bras ou de mettre vos mains sur les hanches, signes de fermeture. Restez bien droit, en regardant votre interlocuteur entre les yeux ou au niveau du front (pour ne pas faire bouger votre regard de gauche à droite). Pour rester droit, il suffit de se maintenir sur le bord d'un siège afin de vous forcer à ne pas vous laisser aller. N'hésitez pas à imiter votre interlocuteur, s'il pose les poings sur la table ou s'il se détend. Gardez vos mains au-dessus de la table, effectuez des gestes sans tomber dans la caricature italienne, afin d'appuyer vos propos visuellement (sans faire de doigt d'honneur comme une certaine Laurette).

In case of a filmed interview, the image is just as important as the remarks made. Avoid crossing your arms or putting your hands on the hips, which are signs of closure. Stay upright, looking at your interlocutor between the eyes or at the forehead (do not move your eyes from left to right). To stay upright, simply sit on the edge of a seat and force yourself not to let go. Do not hesitate to imitate your interlocutor, when he puts his fists on the table or when he relaxes. Keep your hands above the table, make gestures without falling into the Italian caricature, to support your remarks visually (without giving the middle finger, like a certain Laurette).

How to hold a mic?

Absurd question? Not so sure, when we see a good number of people in politics, sports, even journalists who hold the microphone wrongly. A microphone can have multiple directions from where it records sound (unidirectional, bi, etc.). So let's assume that it works basically via an imaginary straight line that starts from the top of the microphone. It must therefore be directed towards the mouth. The microphone stands at an "ampan" of the mouth, that is, at a hand distance (see illustration), to avoid labial bass (sounds in P or B) that sound wrong. Do not forget that we have a microphone to answer and therefore we should not move our hands too much. A wired microphone can also record wire-related interferences. To avoid these (only in case of recording), simply make a loop with the thread around the hand. Last remark: a journalist who gives you the microphone is a bad journalist. He (or the sound engineer) must normally take care of the position and the holding of the audio material (except lapel microphone). wearable-phone-concept.jpg ("ampan" distance)

Request for an interview

In general, an interview is never done live and a preparation is always possible before answering the questions of the journalist, except during reporting in full event (press conference, event ...). Even for the radio, when recording over the phone, it is possible to request a later call to collect data and prepare. It is even essential for a television passage since the journalist can hardly erase or modify your stutters and possible errors like in writing or radio. Television journalism in general is especially fond of this kind of wanderings from subjects. As the processing of the interview is usually done afterwards, do not hesitate to resume, to repeat your answer to be clearer (it works also in radio in case of recordings) or to request more information in case of vague question.

How to stand?

In case of a filmed interview, the image is just as important as the remarks made. Avoid crossing your arms or putting your hands on the hips, which are signs of closure. Stay upright, looking at your interlocutor between the eyes or at the forehead (do not move your eyes from left to right). To stay upright, simply sit on the edge of a seat and force yourself not to let go. Do not hesitate to imitate your interlocutor, when he puts his fists on the table or when he relaxes. Keep your hands above the table, make gestures without falling into the Italian caricature, to support your remarks visually (without giving the middle finger, like a certain Laurette).

The drinks

General note, only drink when it's not your turn. If you are served alcohol, do not let it be shown and avoid drinking it in front of the camera. Michel Daerden's gone, no need to replace him. Same remark on tobacco or any other drug (chocolate included).
