The candidate should discuss whether they prefer working with still images or video, and why they prefer this type of photography. The hiring manager uses this question to see if the candidate is able to fit the job description properly, but also can see where the candidate's strengths in photography are.

"I prefer working with videography because there are many techniques to taking videos that tell a story better than a still one could. For instance, panning from one person to another, or zooming in or out, highlights the most important part of the video."
