Audience Feedback
Initial audience questionnaire feedback:
From my questionnaire results I found out what was the overall most desired genre of music video (pop) and what style of music video it would be. 44% of people wanted a narrative based music video whilst the next biggest vote (28%) wanted a performance based music video. From this I knew I wanted to include elements of both but heavily focus on the narrative, this creates it so I can satisfy two of the biggest majorities.
Presentation pitch feedback:
The feedback I received from the presentation pitch was mixed. Some people did not like the song choice where as others did, it was an even split so I could not make a definite decision on the song and had to acknowledge that song choice is a subjective preference based choice. The reasons why some disagreed with the song was due to its upbeat tone and rhythm, however the lyrics of the music video counterbalance this upbeat tempo due to their clear meanings and messages. In the end I decided to go with my original song choice.
Mid production feedback:
Mid production I did not have as much audience feedback as the other stages. The only feedback I received was when I showed my partner/actor assistant the progress I was making with the editing of the music video. Feedback was limited to a few scenes/sequences where she either liked or disliked something in the editing or clip choice. However the upwards majority of the editing process I confided to my self and trusted my own decisions and direction.
End of production feedback:
At the end of my production I shared my final product with my class for feedback. However unbeknownst to me, my class mates spotted a lip syncing error which I later went back and corrected. Furthermore I also received construction feedback on a particular transition I used in a particular scene which featured the imaged being stretched out from the right side of the screen to the left side of the screen. However what was observed is that the transition does not have enough time for it to be effective in the way how I first intended it too and instead ended up being confusing and disorientating, this all resulted in the flow of the music video being disturbed. I therefore listened to the constructive feedback on my editing choice and went back to a more simple approach. I simply had the scene a normal image with no moving effects and transitioned it out with a smooth and 'easy on the eye' fade.
