Feedback Summary



Very cliched plot
The class thought that the plot we had originally chosen to use was very clichéd and had been used in lots of music videos before, they therefore concluded that this plot was not appealing to them as it has been used many times before. Taking this feedback into account we changed our plot outline and as director and writer changed the plot to portray the conventions of being rich and poor as this is an idea that is not done much in many music videos, meaning that our music video is unique and more appealing to our chosen audience.

How is custom music going to be professional?

The audience also felt that by recording the music by ourselves as a group was a big step that required a lot of attention because if the music was recording with just a computer then the outcome will sound very amateurish. Taken this feedback into account as I am the composer of the song I have purchased a high quality microphone to go with the computer, this is to ensure that the audio is of high quality as this is want our audience wanted and me as the composer I want to make sure the quality is of high standard and meets the requirements of our chosen audience.

Not many music videos end up with fights
The class thought that the finish of our music video was a disadvantage because most of the music videos that are aimed at our chosen audience do not end in violence and because of this even though it was a unique idea that made our music video standout, it was a disadvantage as there were not many examples that we could use to gain ideas from. As the director and writer I made the decision to change the ending of our music video to something with a strong message and this is why as director I have decided to convey a story of rags to riches as this is a good finish and appeals to our target audience.

Does our video have a message?
From our pitch for our original idea the audience found it hard to find the message of our music video because it is guys fighting over a girl this has been overrepresented in music videos and this plot normally does not have a clear message for the audience. From this feedback as director I went back to the drawing board with my group and after an intensive review of our previous plot we decided to change our idea because we too did not find a message in the previous plot and we so we changed this to appeal to our target audience and make sure that our music video had a message that is strong but also clear to our target audience.
