Student Feedback from Music Video

Positive Feedback

 

• Creative shots of Performance
• Edits used are exciting to audience
• Instrument are well synced to music
   
  Negative Feedback
   

• Lots of blank spaces where footage should be
• Excessive use of drums can become quite tedious
• Lack of focus on singer and narrative
   
  Outcome 
  With this information, we will aim to film more footage especially the narrative part over the weekend and upcoming weeks. We will aim to use the footage we have acquired in small snippets, decreasing a single clip of drumming to under 2 seconds to fit the genera. We may make the singer the prime focus of the music video but not rely on it alone. The narrative will also be fit in with key lyrics in the music and a clear divide between narrative and music will be made.
