The document discusses the results of an online survey about a music video. 11 people responded to the survey. Based on the feedback: - 100% of respondents thought the video contained the right codes and conventions of the heavy rock/metal genre. - The most popular scene was the "devil's lair" while the least popular scenes had lighting that did not fit the mood of the song. - While most camera shots were effective, more variety could have improved the video. - The editing matched the tempo of the song successfully. - Limitations prevented optimal locations, costumes, and representation of the intertextual elements in the video.

2. To collect audience feedback I created an online
survey via survey monkey. I had 11 responses.

3. For the first question I
wanted to find out if I had
managed to succeed in
creating a music video that
correspondent with the
codes and conventions of my
chosen genre. I had positive
feedback and found that all
the people who had taken
my survey thought that my
music video contained the
right codes and conventions
of a heavy rock/metal video.

4. I also wanted to find out which were peoples favourite
locations because I was interested it which were the
most effective. This would also let me know which
scene fitted the song and genre best. The results I had
were as followed:
27.27% preferred the opening scene
18.18% preferred the jeep scene
9.09% preferred the outdoors scene
36.36% preferred the devils lair
9.09% preferred the abandoned house
The results were surprising but after asking people why
their least favourites were the outdoors and
abandoned house scenes I discovered that the lighting
did not fit the mood of the song and that rather than
shooting those scenes during the day in the sun light it
would have been more effective to film them when it
was dark.

5. 81.82% said that the camera
shots and angles were effective in
the video while only 18.18%
disagreed. After asking people
why they chose their answers I
found that although the camera
shots I used were good I could
have benefited more by included
more animated shots and a
bigger variety of angles.

6. I decided to include a question
about the lip sync to find out if I
was successful when editing my
footage to the lyrics of the song.
Thankfully I received 100%
positive feedback from people
saying that they thought the
footage was lip synced properly.

7. Obviously the mis en scene was an
important part of my planning and I put a
lot of effort into designing costumes and
locations. Unfortunately I was unable to film
in one of my original locations which is a
shame as I feel it would have changed the
atmosphere of my video and improved it
greatly. I feel like this set back led to 18.18%
of people saying that the costumes and set
design didn’t fit to the music genre. This
was disheartening however I know that if I
had been able to shoot the murder scene in
it’s original location it would have improved
my video and ultimately my audience
feedback.

8. When editing a music
video it is important to
match the clips to the
tempo of the song. To my
surprise I had 100%
positive feedback from
people agreeing I had
succeeded in matching
my editing to the tempo
of my song.

9. For my intertextuality I decided to use
the 7 deadly sins and I thought it
suited the genre and I wanted to get
peoples opinions on whether they
thought they were represented well.
Only 18.18% disagreed and after
reading the comments in the
feedback the only criticisms were that
each sin should have been included in
the video and that they should have
been more evident. Originally I was
going to have each sin represented by
a person however due to a lack of
willing participants I had to change
that last minute.

10. I was keen to find out
what people thought of
the lighting effects I used
in my video and found the
only criticism was that
some of the footage
filmed outside in the sun
light was too ‘happy’ for
my chosen genre.

11. In the online survey I created a
comment box allowing people
to say how they thought my
video could have been
improved. Most of it was
positive and constructive
feedback

12. For the last question I
asked people to rate the
video out of 5 and got an
overall score of 4.5

13. Overall I feel as though I had some very constructive feedback and I am sure that if I
had been given more time and didn’t have a limited budget I could have created a
video that would have met my audiences standards.
The strengths of my video included:
-good set design
-good costume
-good editing
-a video that fit the codes and conventions
-good lip sync
My weaknesses were:
-not enough locations
-little evidence of the intertextuality
-needed better lighting to set the mood
-limited camera work
