3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?

through out making my music video i received peer feedback and teacher feed back. this helped in the making of my video as it gave me a wider view of what needed to be done to my video and ideas to improve my project.
1. class and teacher feedback on your initial treatment. the initial feedback on my treatment was it was a good idea but very ambitious and would need scaling down without making the video looking tacky and unprofessional. we originally were hoping to film in a jazz club but realised that this wasn't going to happen so we rethought are location and decided to use the junction as the college has connections there and also we could get a professional technician to help us with the lighting which was key in our video.
2. rough cut- class feedback and teacher feedback.
our general feedback on our video was that some parts of our video was out of sync and that there should be more shots of the girls dancing and the boys playing cards. we took all of the comments into consideration and decided to introduce more shots of the girls dancing. we also decided to shoot some shots of the boys playing cards with the singer singing around them but unfortunately we ran out of shooting time as it would of cut into our editing time which we needed a lot.
3. class feedback on your digi-pack roughs.
the general feedback on my digi-pack and poster was mainly constructive as i had done very little on my digi-pack. mainly peoples feedback was that it needs to be more stylised like the video.
4. final feedback.
the feedback on my final video was that it looked very professional, the lighting was very good and the dancers worked very well in the video. people also said that they liked the pace of the video and how it was cut. the only criticism of my video was that there was only two shot of the card playing. if i had more time i would shoot more shots of the card game and add them into the video.

we also received feedback from a film maker called Ben Gee. this is what he had to say about my video.
"nice cuts, professional look; good fades, light used well, very good use of mix shots with big close ups and shared shot on screen; care in filming and edited very well; doubled up shots very nicely done; blur effect good; all good quality, no bad shots; cards at end make it look pro"
i am very please with the feedback from him as i am proud to think that a professional film maker had such a positive response to the video and said it looks pro.
