Evaluation Question 3

What have you learned from your audience feedback?

Here is a series of clips we filmed after a screening of our music video in front of an audience. We also filmed some of the audience reactions and here, we filmed some audience members and their response to the film and the questions we asked them about our film.
Here are the questions we asked each of our selected audience members:

1. How do you feel after watching the video?

2. What message do you think the video was trying to get across?

3. What do you think could be improved?

4. What was your favorite part of our film (if any)?

From question 1's response it seems the audience feel an emotional attachment to the music video and character (s) in it. The audience members do sympathize with the main character in our music video which reinforces the message and themes we are trying to portray in the video.

Question 2 shows that the messages we were trying to create through the narrative perspective of the music video are visible to the audience, which is one of the primary targets of the music video. The message that the audience notice  the most is that of the relationship between the character and his father which was one of the few main narratives of the video. 

Through question 3 we were able to understand how the video could be improved and what is essentially wrong with it. This is in my opinion the most important question because the criticism can help develop us as better film makers and primarily develop and improve our music video. The answer that was frequently raised was use of the same shots too often which i agree with, we should of taken more shots on more locations, perhaps with more narrative orientated shots.

overall I think our film did promote a message to the audience and the shots and locations worked well in the video to create n emotional attachment between the audience and the main character. But i do think our video could of improved with more varied shots and more use of narrative based scenes which will create a stronger relationship between the audience and character in the music video.
