Evaluation - Question 3.

3.) What have you learnt from your audience feedback?

To gather feedback, I staged a viewing of my music video in my home and invited friends and family to watch. The feedback was generally positive, however I also received constructive criticism for if I were to do it again. The audience really enjoyed the older style and the unexpected choice of song. I received many comments that my lip-syncing was ‘brilliant’ and that the overall construction of the video had been well-planned out and edited well.
The audience particularly pointed out that the colours and upbeat tempo of the song, as well as the goofy, loved-up feeling made the feel happy, which was an important aim of mine throughout the creation of this video. Some people commented on the different pace’s in the video, which matched the beat of the song, expressing their feelings that this was done well and that it was evident that I didn’t just throw this video together, but took the time to interpret the music in my own way.
My music video “definitely stands out” from real media products and it was “enjoyable to watch”. Getting audience feedback, good or bad, throughout the process of this task, has helped push me to do my best and produce the best that I can with the tools available.
If I were to do my music video again, I would try and challenge conventions more. I would post both rough cut and final cut on a networking site so that I could get more feedback on how to improve and alter my piece. Also, I would have a wider variety of shots and locations to make my music video more visually interesting. My editing skills have progressed throughout the creation of my piece and If I were to do it again, I think that I could improve my video with better effects, motions and make the transitions smoother.
