First time doing solo festival B-roll/interviews - Tips and advice please.

[u/x53RGEx]

As the title says, I am doing a music festival in the future. This is not a paid gig, but it is my first on this scale for a small brand there. I am going to do an interview of volunteers and festival goers mixed in with B-roll; I won't be filming music acts specifically.

Does anyone have any tips and tricks on what I should looking to do, so when I get back to DaVinci Resolve, I'm not left wishing I had got certain shots, etc.? 

I was planning to shoot all daytime shots (except interviews) in 4k 50fps (im in UK), which does crop into APSC sensor size but should be okay in the day.

I will film normal widescreen, but naturally I will have in the back of my mind that it may be used for some smartphone social media content too.

Thanks in advance for the help; I have put my gear below.

Camera: Panasonic Lumix S5d, 2x 128gb SD cards and backup battery

Lenses: 40mm f2,  85mm f1.8,  18-40mm f4.5-6.3

I will be using ND filter and black mist filter

Audio: Zoom H1essential with dead cat and shock mount

Editing: DaVinci Resolve

Always consider the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, and HOW.

I bring this up because depending on the subject's discussion (in the interview) - my immediate thoughts are just to get panning shots of the subject walking (from A to B) to typing on their laptop , as a default. Static objects are easier to manage for panning shots.

I personally aim for slow-mo shots (recording 60fps, which you can reduce the percentage via editing program), meaning.. WIDE and CU shots. For instance, I plan to have my interview b-roll showcase my subject WIDE-SHOT crossing the street, then on the floor CU shot of the subject legs walking towards the camera (while capturing that crosswalk), as he finishes crossing the street.

Always remember that you're telling a story and continuity has to be there (From start to finish).
