•Rock was clearly the most popular music genre in the
people opinion at the showcase.This means that my
video, which is a rock genre, was bound to be popular at
the showcase due to its genre.The second favourite genre
was Pop, shortly followed by rap, classic, r&b, jazz and
electronic.The least popular genres were country/ folk and
indie music.
•Most people at the showcase
stated they either watch and/or
listen to music videos on a daily
basis, once or twice a week or
never at all.The other options
were also equal with one vote
included 3-5 times a week, less
than once a week or once a
month.

•YouTube was the most popular music channel my
surveyors use to watch music videos. Popular radio
shows such as kiss, viva, MTV and smash hits fell shortly
behind on 2,1, 1 and 1 points respectively.Astonishingly
Heart had none this was a surprise given it’s reputation
as a big radio broadcast station.
Compared to use of music
channels music magazines appear
to be unpopular.Almost 4/5’s of
people stated they didn’t read
magazines.Those that did stated
thatTop of the pops and Q were
their preferred magazines to read

•Judging by the turn out of this
question people thought that
my MusicVideo was an
“adequate” length meaning that
I didn’t need shorten the video
and remove unneeded parts of
the song, i.e. extended
instrumental solo’s.
•People felt that the
narrative of my MusicVideo
fitted with the lyrics, this
means that my footage
doesn’t needed to be change
to fit the narrative. But also
shots that I shall reshoot
shall mirror the narrative
themes as these shots.

•4 people stated that some of the first draft shots were
too dark in places, in particular a few garage scenes. I
shall re-film these garage scenes and make sure they
continue to fit with the Genre.

•2x people stated “No” this is because they said that the pace
“could be quicker”.
•Because of this constructive criticism I shall now make the
editing and pace of the MusicVideo a lot faster, especially
during the choruses.

•1 critic stated that My Advert doesn’t relate to the song
genre, due to this is have decided to take inspiration from a
few other adverts of the rock genre. Upon this research I
have decided to add a picture of the band to the Advert
which shall sit in front of the logo.
•1 critic stated that my Advert isn’t a typical one they would
see whilst, 8 people said it did. I shall format some of the
colours of the advert and as stated before shall add a photo of
the band, hopefully this will make it more realistic as a rock
genre advert.

•People thought that my Digi Pak was a lot more realistic than
that of my advert.This is partly because I stated that I took
inspiration from a Rock style advert, therefore my Digi Pak is
relatable to the rock genre.
•People thought that because of my attempt to use
inspiration from rock digi pak’s that I looked like a
genuine one they would normally see or buy.

•As shown here via this chart and tally, more than ¾ of
people thought that the lip syncing of my music video
was off. I have looked through the music video and have
found out that locations were my music video is out of
sync are:
•The critics at the showcase felt that the colours used in
my preliminary tasks black, grey, red.These have
references to the bands identity, for example black and
grey are dull colours which are shown in my music video
and the red and black colour derive from the colours of
traditional pheonix’ on the internet.
