Question 3

What have you learned from your audience feedback?

From the film pitch we did in one of our media lessons i got feedback from the audience, this helped me to change some of the things in my music videos and analyse what things may may the music video look better.
One of the questionnaire said that it would be better with more colourisation, i then went back to my music video and played around with the colourisation to then find that when i added different colourisation to the video it gave it more depth and also made it more interesting.

For example in this shot, our artist Lily Norman is lip syncing to the song, in the first picture colourisation has been added and in the second picture it hasn't, we though that in the first picture it made the scene look more magical and enchanted, this would keep with the theme that our music video was shot in a forest, it also corresponds with the song as the song is acoustic and this is the genre that you would associate with this type of setting.

From our feedback we also found that the audience thought that our lip syncing was quite convincing, we are glad with this because it took a lot of time and effort into making sure that the visuals matched the audio. We also made an effort to make the lyrics match the visuals, we did this by using props and gestures to show that it corresponded with the song.

In this image you can see our artist Lily Norman with a note book, this was a shot that was done purposely, it matches the lyrics " your name is all over my note book ". We thought that it would be a good shot to use, we decided on having our artist in a tree for a different type of scene, i think this again matched the genre of the music and makes the artist seem very laid back and relaxed.

Some other feedback that was brought up was the use of fast cut montage, some of the audience didn't think that it worked in the music video, i disagree with this feedback. I think that it brings something else to the music video and makes it more interesting. It makes it seem like a music video and not a short story, i think without the fast cut montage it may have made the music video a bit boring and would have maybe lost the audiences attention.
