Audience FeedbackFinished Music Video

For my finished music video I wanted to receive feedback in order to find out what the audience liked and went well about the finished version in order to see what worked and what didn’t. Also I wanted to find out how I improved from the first draft and how I would improve it further if I had more time.

this is the feedback I received

What the audience liked

The cuts where smooth The lip syncing was effective The cuts between the same person performing then acting in the

narrative work well to display the linkage between the band and narrative

Grey scale and colour looked very professional and effective The aspect ratio and over all quality was very professional A very convincing performance televised bard and commercial

exhibitionist It meets the demands of the record label very well focusing on the band

with close ups showing each individual member including eye contact

What I improved from the draft

The colour correction and filters make the narrative easy to understand with the grey scale representing the dead character and the saturated colours showing the band singling them away from the narrative

The reverse at the end also helps bring the narrative to an end The intertextual references are better as there are traits from the

digipak which feature in the music video for example the actors wear the same clothes.

What I would do with more time

If I had more time I would created a ghostly effect for the dead character. In my music video whenever the dead character is on scree the video is in grey scale. However I wanted to make him become a ghost using key framing on Sony Vegas.

I would have also liked to have two cameras in place so that I had alternative angles to each shot. Unfortunately I only had access to one camera and one tripod.
