Rough Cut Audience Feedback

We have just finished the first full draft or rough cut of our music video. So far, we have incorporated two of the sweeded scenes and also the performance scenes. Moreover we have put a real titanic movie clip onto the TV which has guided our audience and gave them an early idea of what the concept is about.

I spoke to a number of people and showed them our rough cut. They all had some interesting comments to say about our rough cut. I spoke to Simon Sandved Smith who said that there is one part that is more jumpy when they are inserting the video. Moreover that he would like to see more of the performance element of our clip. He suggested that we condense the sitting room scene as we spend too much time on that. He said that it is all very well cut, but went onto to suggest that we should make sure that all of the sweeded scenes incorporate the real movie scenes so that the audience are reassured by the concept of our video. I asked another person in my boarding house and he said that he would also like to see more of the performance aspect of our video as he said that it was very nicely shot.

When I spoke to people they also said that it was very nicely shot. Both of the people that I interviewed about it said that they said that the performance scenes were amazingly shot and the props surrounding it were great. They went onto say that they realised everything in the room and that it blended in with the 1980s vibe that we tried to give off when building our set. Furthermore they said that the timing of our video was great.

Overall I believe that this was good constructive feedback. We need to take on board that we need to incorporate more of the performance element and also make sure that the sweeded scenes are timed properly.
