2. Feedback firstly by Class mates
• It is firstly important to gain relevant feedback for our work with not just asking the public. So
we decided to firstly show our music video to our fellow a2 class mates here is what
they thought of the Video.
• Props and costume are good and definitely is of the Genre Hip Hop.
• This shows that we were spot on with making sure that our performers costume
was appropriate for our genre
• Filming mostly studio makes the video look more professional
• The Lip Sync is Slightly off and the performance is not enthusiastic enough.
• This shows that we may have chose someone who was more confident about
doing the performance and that we should have been more organised
• I love the ending I thought that was creative especially as the editing was fast.
3. Facebook comments (evidence)
• This is a screen shot of our
audience feedback from
www.facebook.com as you can see
this is what people have wrote
about our music video the
comments also state what was
good about the video with also
element from improvement
• This particular feedback is great for
us as the comments are actually
serious and give us good advice on
what should be improved. Looking
at these comments means that we
have met our objectives such as
providing the correct props and
costumes and cutting the filming to
the beat.
4. What have I learnt from Audience
Feedback
• I have learnt that audience feedback is essential and determines whether your
media products were a success or not and whether or not it was attractive enough
for your target audience. The way I got all of my audience feedback was by making
my class mates watch my video and then comment on a piece of paper I made
sure that it was completely anonymous. I also used Media 2.0 technology
Facebook to get audience feedback from a more broader perspective and made a
Focus Group I added mostly Media students and friends who are potentially my
target audience to this group and asked them relevant questions and not just
questions like do you like my video or ancillary products. I believed that using
technology was the best option for me to obtain my media feedback and I felt as
my method was successful. I think that qualitative research and quantitative
research methods both have their strong point qualitative research is a quicker
response and maybe involves a smaller amount of people and maybe a more in
depth answer whereas quantitative research is more broader and aimed at a wider
audience and the response may take longer. I personally prefer using Facebook as
the availability is better.
5. My views of the feedback given from
my audience and what I have learnt
• From collecting all of the audience responses it is clear that everybody enjoyed our music
video which is always satisfying to hear as the producer.
• My worry of this video was that because our video did not include typical Hip Hop
conventions throughout all of our video that the audience may not of enjoyed the video or
think that it was a part of the Genre However from the audience responses it showed that
they did identify the genre they mentioned the costume Mise en scene and lighting was
what identified the Genre the Most. Most of our feedback was fairly positive with only 1 or 2
aspects.
• I think we did need to improve our lip syncing however we weren't to familiar with the
programme so therefore technological determinism was the case in particular as our
knowledge was fairly basic.
• Another improvement that we could make is we should have been more organised and
perhaps chose a more confident artist as the performance was not as good as it could have
been.
