Audience Feedback 1
1. I find the pastel overlay realy interesting and it is
clear to me that you have used your inspirations such
as videos like Troye Sivan “Youth” video to help
influence your work.
2. The timing of each shot is really good because it is
clear lots of time went into the editing as it connects
with the timing of the song – which is what a music
video should be like.
3. I really like the shots which have been selected
because it clearly shows the theme which you were
intending – youth.
4. I also really like how the storyline of your piece
hasn’t been lost.
As a whole I think it is a really strong and interesting
music video, with the editing combined with the camera
work I think it works really well together.
Audience Feedback 2
Positives:
• The theme of youth is portrayed well
through the shots of alcohol, kissing and
the shot when they all lay on the floor –
portrays key elements of youth such as
love, friendship and drinking.
• The colour treatment and the decision to
give the footage a slightly pink filter
gives the video a fun atmosphere which
links to the song being upbeat.
• The shots being a set length means they
all fit into the rhythm of the song.
Audience Feedback 2
Negatives:
• Since the song is upbeat, it would have
benefitted from some fast tracking shots,
and this would have helped portray youth
as exciting.
• Keeping the shots following the beats of
the song restricts the video slightly in
that it can feel too slow in its shot
length and editing, some short takes that
lasted one or two beats would have made
the video feel a little more upbeat and
brought home your theme of youth as fun.
Audience Feedback 3
• The transition to the music was very
good.
• The relevance of the lyrics matched
correctly with the clip that was
being shown and when not matching
with lyrics it still flowed
following when the melody hit a
certain part.
• I haven’t really got any bad points.
Audience Feedback 4
• Overall I think it’s really good.
• But at one point an actor looks at the
camera – which is a big no no and a
clear sign that it is a studenty film.
• I think the shots of the drink / cigs
looks a little unnatural – I think
that can be fixed if the shots are
less static. It’ll make it seem more
natural and could better get across
the idea of turbulent youth (a bit of
a theme I picked up).
Audience Feedback 5
• The video was well shot and the
narrative was clear, the themes
matched the lyrics of the song and
what they connote. At some points
the visuals seemed slower than the
audio and some minor adjustments to
the editing could prove extremely
aesthetically appealing.
