Kendell Burgess evaluates the tasks of a music video project and areas for improvement. The tasks included analyzing existing music videos, generating ideas for their own video, researching production roles and equipment, pre-production planning, taking photos during filming, and editing a rough and final cut of the video. To strengthen future work, Kendell suggests doing additional analysis, developing a mood board, including more details in planning documents, writing more photo captions, and completing a rough edit for review.
