First Draft Music Video Feedback

To get feedback of our music video, we asked our peers in our class, the year 12 classes and our friends. We decided to ask some people that did not study media with us to get some insight into what the music video looks like to someone that does not have a biased opinion.

Strengths

• The transitions and effects are interesting.
• The Mise En Scene is also excellent and well thought out.
• The varied locations and settings work well.
• The shots were steady and filmed well.
• Red theme makes synergy clear.
• Inventive and interesting
• The shots cut with the timing of the music well
• The effect where Lorna cuts around the screen is effective.
• The shots suit the song well.

Weaknesses

• The lip syncing does not always match the words sung in the song.
• Use a wider range of transitions - fast and slow.
• Use a larger variety of camera angles.
• The props and mise en scene did not always link together
• The performance when lip syncing could be more enthusiastic. This would make the performance more believable.
• The meaning wasn't clear
• There are lots of repeated shots, could theses shots be replaced?
• Could the lip syncing shots have more cuts so that they are not as long?
• Some shots are too repetitive.
• More scenery shots?
• More close ups?
