What I need to do next

The next scene of my music video will be at the beach on a winters day, below is a list of things i need to do to prepare for the next scene.

  • I need to get all the boys together to decide a time and date to go to the beach
  • I need to think of transport, how we will all get to the beach
  • I need to think about what costume i would like my characters to wear for this scene
  • I need to think about if i need any other props or characters for the next scene
  • Because a lot of the next scene is instrumental and not much singing i need to think about what i want the characters to be doing while they aren't singing.
  • Linking back to my audience feedback, i need to think about how i am going to use a bigger variety of shots and how i am going to make the characters make more eye contact with the camera.

Audience Feedback

I showed my music video to a number of people in my class and asked them to give me feedback on my video so far and this is what they came up with.

Positive Feedback:
  • Very good lip syncing
  • Good variety of shots, variety of angles
  • Very good costume
  • Costume and props represent the genre well
  • Clear boyband genre
  • Very good eye contact with the camera 
  • Good emotional facial expressions
  • Stuck the the boyband genre well
  • Very good framing in most of the shots
  • The sepia and black and white effects work well
  • Good transitions between shots
Negative Feedback:
  • Need more locations
  • More variety in the length of shots. e.g. extreme close up, long shot
  • Framing is poor in some of the shots. e.g. cutting half of the character off
  • More eye contact with the camera would be better
  • Get the characters to do more, not just sit and sing

I will take all this feedback on board and take it into account when i go out to film the next scene of my music video.
