Question one evaluation
The document discusses conventions in music videos and how the student's music video project used and challenged conventions. It begins by outlining common music video types (performance, narrative, concept) and describing conventions for different genres. It then discusses how the student's video incorporated elements of multiple types and had an unconventional narrative compared to typical indie music videos. The student aimed to include conventions like close-ups of the artist but challenged conventions like a consistent theme/color scheme. Overall, the student tried to both use and push boundaries of typical music video conventions.
Audience research
The document summarizes audience research collected for a music video project. A survey was conducted online and in-person to gather both quantitative and qualitative feedback. Respondents associated positive feelings like happiness and fun with the song. Common themes in their descriptions included nature words and summer imagery. Outdoor locations and natural lighting were popular suggestions. Characters should be teenagers and friends, fitting the target indie audience. Most felt the video should incorporate elements of performance, narrative, and concept.
Past student evaluation – Jack and Airi
Jack and Airi created a Prezi presentation for Question One that included how they appealed to their target audience and mentioned conventions, but lacked detail. They briefly discussed challenging conventions and ancillary tasks. For Question Two, they discussed design components and branding for each product, but with little detail. Question Three was short and difficult to hear, but discussed audience research. Question Four featured pictures but lacked flow and editing, and mostly listed technologies without analyzing each one. In general, the summaries addressed the key points of each question but were brief and lacked substantive details and analysis.
Past student evaluation – ruby and carla
This document provides feedback on a past student's evaluation of Ruby and Carla's responses to four questions. For question one, the summary notes that while examples from their video were included, the response lacked depth and examples. Question two used Prezi effectively but included some irrelevant details. Question three using Slideshare was not the best format as it was less engaging. Question four was the strongest response, using a mix of media while discussing the technologies' benefits and limitations. In general, the feedback suggested including more relevant details, examples, and ensuring responses directly addressed the questions.
Past student evaluation – Lew Parker
Lewis Parker created a Prezi evaluating his past student work. He structured the evaluation around 4 questions: Style, Content, Audience Feedback, and Use of Technology. For each question, Lewis provided thorough, detailed responses using examples from his work, research he conducted, and reflections on what he learned. He employed a variety of presentation styles including videos, images, and interactive elements to engage the viewer in his self-assessment.
Class feedback
The class participated in a music sharing activity where each student played their top three song choices for the others to listen to. While listening, the rest of the class filled out response sheets that had categories to write about for each song. After, they had a small discussion about the songs where various ideas were shared. The teacher found the exercise to be very useful.
Taken
The document discusses techniques used in a phone scene from the movie "Taken" including a focus on sound, lighting/color, and location. It also mentions that the main character, the dad, wears all black in the scene which suggests he has a dark past but is seen as the hero by the audience.
Final idea finish
The document outlines an idea for the opening sequence of a psychological thriller film. The sequence would begin with a tracking shot of Character A walking alone in the woods at twilight. Character B would then appear in the shadows, chase Character A, and catch/kill him. The sequence would then cut to a flashback of Character A at home with his family before they died, the event that drove him insane. Details are provided on the characters, plot, target audience, filming techniques, locations, and conventions that would be used.
