The document discusses what was learned from gathering audience feedback on a music video and website project. Key findings include:
1) A focus group provided useful feedback, but their opinions were sometimes influenced by peers and it was difficult to get clear answers.
2) Presenting to industry experts provided a specialist perspective and led the group to significantly change their original idea.
3) Weaknesses identified through feedback included parts of the website feeling too childish and having too much planned for the initial idea.
4) The feedback helped the group better understand how to apply communication theories like encoding messages and gratification theory.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. GATHERING AUDIENCE FEEDBACK
• The main way in which I was able to gather my audience
feedback was with my group as a collective in the focus
group.
• Here I learned that the focus group many of the people
within the focus group had their decisions changed and
influenced by the other people around them and often
changed their original view. This happened a few times as
with our stats we found that often it was difficult to get the
exact number of answers as we weren’t sure what they said.
• When presenting our first initial idea to the heads of
production I found that this was a very specialist genre that
we were entering into as they were really playful on the
thought of the ice cream van and how they really wanted
to play around with this idea.
3. DEMOGRAPHICS
• The age group of our focus group I feel
made the data that we got very
different from what we were expecting.
Firstly because of the way that they
were easily influenced by their peers as
they were in a class with people that
they knew well.
• I found that the younger age group
were also not afraid to say exactly what
they thought saying weather it was
good or not.
4. RELIABILITY
• I feel that the focus group may have been a little
biased in the way that they may have viewed our
products as they were all people that knew us
and some quite well. This would have added a lot
of bias.
• However, since this source was using an age
group that was close to our target audience it
was good to get their opinion on our products.
• When presenting our initial ideas it was also
good to have the opinion of the heads of
production who have a pretty unbias opinion.
5. WHAT’S GOOD ABOUT OUR FEEDBACK
• This showed my group and I that the website looked mostly good and that
there were certain things that they really liked such as the merchandise page
many thought looked good.
• They also pointed out the parts within the music video that they liked the
artist and who we chose to cast him and also they immediately got the
concept.
• This also showed us that they immediately got the genre that we were trying
to create and represent.
• We also found that we had to change our original idea by quite a large
amount after our meeting with the heads of production and our idea
adapted our product a lot, however, they liked the initial idea.
6. WEAKNESSES SHOWN THROUGH
FEEDBACK.
• From the focus group for the website I was able to see that
there was something that many people didn’t like about the
backdrop of the homepage and that also the vast majority
thought that the whole website was too childish.
• However, there was nothing that was bad that they could say
about the music video and were generally very positive.
• For our initial idea when we presented the heads of
production they said that there was just too much going on
and that we wouldn’t have time for all of it.
7. STUART HALL RECEPTION THEORY
• Using Stuart Halls theory of decoding and encoding, I feel that my
group and I successfully encoded the message that we were trying to
create of the artist from going from sad to happy.
• I feel that I also learned how to encode certain genre conventions into
our video well such as the long shot durations and the slow movement.
• I feel that this was a simple enough for most people to understand. This
I learned through how easily the heads of production understood the
concept and also from the majority of the people understood this
concept. Therefor I believe that there is a negotiated reading of our
music video.
8. BLUMLER LAZERFELD AND KATZ
• Gratification theory shows that the audiences are not passive but they
actively select the texts that they watch and consume.
• I learned from the focus group that I feel that they liked the concept as it
gave them a sense of diversions as it starts off with him being unhappy
in the video into a dream like state which in itself is a diversion sense to
it.
9. CONCLUSIONS
• I learned a lot from this task such as applying theory to understand the
ways in which our audience consumed our music video and website.
• I learned a lot especially from our focus group about how we could
improve our products and also what was good about them.
