2. There were several things that I have learnt from audience feedback.
After sharing my music video around, I was able to gain a numerous
amount of feedback from several people, some good points and
some giving criticism. However all this feedback was taken in a good
way as we had to see it from all different perspectives.
Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter enabled us to
connect with our friends and get an insight to what their views were. I
think this was a great way to get feedback as well as posting the
video up on YouTube, where we were able to see others comments
on what they thought about the video.
Giving out questionnaires also played a vital role as we found that a
majority of that feedback was from people who fitted the expected
demographic.

quite a few did not and many didn’t really Leyton belongs in the pop genre we felt it
know. Overall I think we managed to fit the was vital to follow some of the codes and
music video in well with the song to create conventions, so that people could see that
meaning within. it was pop.
4. I asked my friend Jonathan to give me some audience feedback,
which helped a lot as it showed me what improvements we could
have made to make it a better video. Below shows his feedback.
5. “Some scenes drag on maybe a few
more quicker cuts were needed? It’s a
slow song and the video is even slower.
However the storyline is good and I like
how you used elements of both narrative
and performance.”
“Hey Amisha, just saw your music
video. Just wanted to say that it was
pretty good. Is this your first attempt?
What programme did you use? Just
Here is some feedback I got given one tip though, try adding a few
from posting my music video up on to different camera shots like your
facebook. I was given generally a friend Felix said. But other than that I
positive feedback on here and I was like it! Keep up the good work :)”
able to see what my friends thought of
which I then learnt from after they had
given their own opinion of what the
thought.
6. The images above show how we have
mainly targeted our audience within
the UK showing both males and
females have viewed this between the
ages of 13-17 and 25-34
The comments we got told us that a
majority of people liked the video, but
disliked the artists music.
7. I also got some audience feedback on my CD cover which then
helped me as I was able to make changes when creating my
magazine advert by adding more effects to it and making it eye
catching.
Jonathan: “Your CD cover and booklet look very plain and it looks like
you have just added images on the screen with simple text, maybe try
adding a few effects? It is still good but if you add effects it will look a
lot more better.”
Here is more feedback from another friend that saw my CD cover and
magazine advert.
James “I really like your production skills, I think a simple CD cover is
good as it does not over do it and Leyton seems like a simple person
from how I saw him in the music video. Your magazine advert is just
amazing, I like all the effects you added and it definitely seemed to
grab my attention!”
8. In conclusion, I think our audience feedback helped us a lot as it
gave us an idea of what the target audience wanted to see and if
they thought our video was good enough to entertain them. Overall,
we got several good points and some points telling us where we
needed to improve the most. We took this feedback and criticism
quite well and also looked at our work from other peoples
perspectives as a pointer to see what we could have manipulated
and what we could have changed. A majority of people said we had
to had more transition shots in order for it to be a good video as it
looked slightly plain. Other than that the feed back was generously
good.
