Rough Cut

We made a rough cut of our music video this was made so that we could then do improvements after but also see what the target audience though and how we could make it better. It is important to have audience feedback so that they can give us there view on how it looks and if there is anything we can change to improve the affect on them. This then will be easier to know what we can change within our final product.  We received our feedback from youtube and asking people what they thought and we also asked people who had watched it to comment on it so that we could improve it.

Charlotte- The video was very realistic with them holding the camera, making it seem like a real relationship. Some shots where repeated.

Joe- The part with the tree looks amazing, her disappearing works well. Her singing isn’t always in sync with the music.

Ella- They seem to be a real couple, the cringe scene can scenes can seem set up at some points. The fireworks work well with all the smoke.

Charlotte made us want to change some of the footage we put in the video so that it didn’t look repetitive to the audience. The comment on how realist it looks made me feel good because it is what we wanted from this project. Due to the comment Joe gave, we went back and changed most of the singing part so that they look more as if she is singing the song and had to sit there for hours getting it perfect. The free scene took 20 mins of standing in the rain so I’m glad that it has a strong affect on the audience. Because of Ella’s comment we tried very hard on trying to find natural things for both actors to do, but it was hard to film in places where there was good lighting and where people couldn’t get within the shot.  We are glad that they look like a real couple that was one of our aims even though they are not together in real life. The fire works took over 3 hours to film so we are glad that they look realist to the audience.
