EVALUATION: Q4 What have you learned from your feedback?

The whole group were so happy with the feedback we got from our fellow media students as literally everything was praise and many people struggled to find something we could improve on.  I made wordles for the feedback we got and as you can see we got much more positive aspects than negative.

When our video came on the audience was very surprised, possibly because the actor was very attractive, but probably because our video was one of the few that used colour correction in that way. At the end when they came together, the girls mostly, awwed at the shot because it was romantic and was exactly the reaction we were hoping for.

The general positive feedback we got was mostly about the colour correction and the idea of the photos in Portobello road and the ones on the trees which made me realise how much of a clever idea it actually was and was really quite original now that i think about it. 

Shannon said 'I liked the different effects that they used like the colouring it made it look like a kind of indie music video, its like it represents the genre'. He really hit the nail on the head with that as our artist is of the indie genre so clearly he has seen what we were aiming for, and seeing as he understood where we were coming from im sure many more realised it too. He also commented about the performance of the artist, and after looking at the rest of the feedback this is the only major problem we have had and i understand where they are coming from and if we had the chance to film again we would go back and encourage the actress to give a big more 'umph'. Then Then again i understand why the actress was a bit timid in the video because some days it was VERY COLD and some places were a bit busy as people would walk by and stare which would be intimidating for her. 

Then again we had a few people like Jessica, Charlene and Tomi, that complemented her on her performance so taking it all into account i think that it is down to personal taste and how that person interprets the video, some people like the shy look but some people feel its awkward, each to there own!

I am still immensely proud of our final product and i would not change anything major about it apart from maybe go back and film a few shots which could have been cleaner but apart from that i love it!
