1. One Minute Music Video Draft Audience Feedback Shake It
Out
2. Overall Feedback: Overall, the music video was well
received, those who watched it complimented the greyscale and
colour juxtaposition and recognised this as a device to
differentiate the narrative from the performance.
3. Symbolism The Black Box was also successfully recognised as
a symbol of the protagonists problems, however, comments state that
the black box needs to make more of an appearance to emphasise its
significance to the audience.
4. Type of Music Most of the feedback I received recognised the
music video as a Standard Clip with narrative elements or vice
versa. This is what I am intending, as the music video is both a
televised bard and a commercial exhibitionist type. However, one
stated that there needs to be more lipsyncing within the narrative
side of the music video.
5. Ancillary Products All individuals who gave feedback
complimented the use of greyscale and colour as a means of
juxtaposition, as it is visible in both the magazine advert and
digipak. Praise was also given to artist being as prominent in the
ancillary products as he is in the music video. Although, comments
added that the black boxs place is more evident within the
ancillary products than the music video, and should be the other
way round.
6. Goodwins Theory Feedbacks points out various different
correlations with Goodwins theory; most notably: the notion of
looking is highly addressed, as well as meeting the demands of the
record label. A relationship between music, lyrics and visuals were
also recognised.
7. Conclusive Improvements Required My audience feedback has
made it evident as to what has worked well, and what needs to be
changed. From this feedback, I shall integrate the symbol of the
black box more thoroughly into the music video. I have also
repeated a few shots, so, to remedy this I must use different
angles rather than the more repetitive mid shot that is seen more
consistently throughout my music video I shall experiment with
shots such as: handheld, canted, establishing, POV and others.
Although overall, most feedback has been positive and I shall
continue with my current execution of my music video.
