Feedback central

We are getting to the stage in our production now where audience feedback is vital, therefore in our lesson on Friday we asked a few of our fellow students at 6th form (who happen to also be part of our target audience, young adults) to come in and give their opinions in some small focus groups, covering not only our music video but also the anciliary tasks tooo!

Firstly when looking at the webpage comments were made about a large pink banner we had, and that it drew attention away from the photo of Santigold - we also agreed with this and then moved a few things around a made the banner smaller and complimented it with a grey part and it now supports the photo rather than overwhelming it.

With the Digipack responses were generally very postive, everyone liked how we used photos taken on location and that they made it seem very professional and of a high quality.

We then asked more direct questions about the music video:

1. Which part or parts stood out the most to you?

- the reverse shot of the cards (personal favourite of ours too, was great as we also learnt new technology to produce it so it was great to get postive feedback for that!)

- shot which involves a frame in the stones and lorna in the distance within :)

- change, change, change :) this was one of our favourites which is the part which included the masks and lots of effort was put into it, so it was great to hear good stuff being said about it.

Criticisms!

- one line where lorna looks directly at camera, outside cinema not sure if this goes well with the rest of the music video (we had also highlighted this as a point to go back to, so glad that we're agreeing with the audience feedback)

- middle part with the umbrella needs to be of a faster pace (this will be achieved through lots of extra editing sessions until we get it perfect, tomorrow after school in fact, one of many!!)

we shall give more audience feedback after we've moved further along with our project's :)
