What have you learned from your audience feedback?- Samuel Pilsworth

1. A2 Media Evaluation
Question 3
By Samuel Pilsworth

2. What have you learned from
your audience feedback?

3. To collect audience feedback, I used survey
services such as Survey Monkey to collect
responses. I asked 5 individuals their opinion
of my original draft and found that the draft
for my music video was quite well received
with an average score of 8 out of 10 when
rated in terms of quality by respondents.
The most notable fondness was of the
video’s use of the black and white effect that
gave the video a distinctive look and set it
apart from music videos of genres such as
pop and rap.

4. I also asked for recommendations for
areas of improvement in this survey. I
created a blog post detailing a summary of
their responses off Survey Monkey. My
summary stated that respondents felt that
the biggest improvements were: a need to
revise the exterior shots that were overly
domestic looking with the shots of the
back yard, to change the religious
iconography in favor of a shot such as a
candle burning down over time in a time
lapse as well as other changes.

5. From this feedback, I made the necessary
changes and then asked for the responses of
people based on the changes. The survey told
me that the final music video was more highly
received with an average rating of 9 out of 10 in
terms of quality. The final version was also more
likely to be recommended to another person
that the results stated from the original draft.
This showed me that I had been successful in
terms of improving my music videos using the
audience feedback and that the necessary
changes required from the audiences feedback
led to audiences rating the piece as higher in
quality.
