  1. All submissions will be reviewed and answered within two weeks (email is usually quicker).
  2. If interested we ask for further contact via Facetime, Phone or Skype (about 10 minutes) in which interview questions and/or talking points will be discussed as well as dates and times.
  3. Confirmation via phone or email for the date and time is required by the guest a month in advance.
  4. We require a 48 hour cancel or reschedule notice via phone or email so that the studio can be booked again. 

How the Process Works:  

  • The studio is located at 415 Main Street, Worcester, MA 01608. PH: 508-755-1880.  You must book through Ramonainterviews first.  The studio requires a media release form be signed by the guest or if underage then by the parent or legal guardian.
  • The interviews are one on one but sometimes we change the set to accommodate a two to one ratio. The set will not look the same if we change the set to accommodate.
  • The Taping is done only on the 4th Monday evening of every month at 5:30pm and 6:15pm in Worcester, MA. USA. Please arrive 15 minutes early.   If you are over 20 mins late you forfeit your interview because the studio is booked back to back and closes after the last timed show.  If you are coming in from out of State or Country please let us know in advance and we can attempt to make extra time.
  • Editing can take up to 3 weeks to complete and upload.
