1. • I really liked the video. It was simple but still followed the song and had
appropriate locations and costumes.
• The video is good as it follows the theme of the song.
• The video is good but contains mistakes which take the edge of the video.
• It is good, it links to the genre characteristics and the location and costume are
appropriate too.
• I really liked it. I went well with the lyrics and song.
• I didn't really like it to be honest. It looked very amateur and nothing like a real
music video.
• The video is good, the locations are nice and the costume fits in with the genre.
However the shots are a bit too long so the cut rate could be quicker.
• The video is really great, it looks really good.
• It is very good as it represents and conforms to the genre characteristics.
• The video is good. The two locations are good but I would have liked to have seen
maybe another.
2. • I liked the two locations. They were both lonely places which went with song.
• I liked the locations, the narrative and the 360 degree shot.
• I did like the locations as they suited the songs meanings. I also liked the costume
and the acting of the character.
• I liked the way the lyrics were portrayed in the acting and the lonely locations. I
also liked the slow cut rate as it went with the beat and the mood.
• I really liked the slow cut rate as it went with the beat and the mood of the song. I
also liked the costume, shot types and locations.
• I did like the leader singer. He portrayed the lyrics well in his acting by looking
depressed and lost.
• The two locations were good as they fitted in with the lyrics as they portrayed the
loneliness. The smart casual costume looked great too.
• The video is set in a really nice location and the costume looks good too.
• I liked the two location, the outfit and the narrative.
• I liked the way the video shows a lonely person on stage and on a stage which
matches the lyrics. I also like two locations and what the person is wearing.
3. • On the other hand I didn't like the costume. I feel it would be much more appropriate
if the artist was wearing a suit.
• I didn't like the costume, I know it was smart casual and this is part of indie rock but I
just didn’t personally like the outfit. I though the stage location should have been
used more too.
• I though there was many mistakes as there was the school logo on the stage, the
houses and park in the background of the park and wobbly camera at some points.
• I didn't like the rewind at the end as I didn’t know the relevance of it. I also didn't like
the way the play area and houses were in the background of the park as it looked
amateur.
• I didn't like the ending when the artist was in reverse back on to the tree truck.
• I didn't like the two locations. The park had a playground and houses in the
background while the stage footage wasn't too clear and had a school logo in the
background which looked bad.
• I though the shots were too long and the cut rate should of been quicker.
• I don't like the shot types as there isn't much of a variety.
• I didn't really like the on stage section.
• I didn't like lack of shot types as there was much of a variety. I also though a third
location would have been better maybe in a studio.
4. • I would change the costume. I would also change the video so that other people
were in it to highlight his loneliness.
• I would have changed the costume and shown more of the stage location.
• I would personally eradicate all the mistakes and maybe add a new location.
• I would find a way to film in the park without the play area and the houses. I
would also add some close up shots.
• I would change the ending for something more meaningful as the rest of the video
was great.
• I would change the locations. I think the idea of a park and stage were good but
they weren't executed well. The park would look good without the play area and
the houses. Also if a different staged was used that would look great.
• I would make the cut rate quicker as it was too slow for a music video. I would also
add in more variety of shots such as more close ups and extreme close ups.
• I would add a wider variety of shots
• Change the on stage section for a city or studio location.
• I would add a variety of more shot types especially close ups and extreme close
ups. I would also have added a third location preferably in a recording studio.
Finally I would have had more people in the video.
5. • I thought it was ok but I would have preferred a suit as I feel it would suit
the narrative better.

to the genre conventions.
6. • I really liked both locations as they are meant to be lively sociable locations however they
are lonely locations because of the song which is great.
• I liked both locations. They both represented the loneliness in the song. A park is meant to
be a fun place but this park was quiet and lonely and the stage had no audience.
• The locations are good as they are usually social places but they are empty and have been
made lonely.
• I did like the park but I didn't like the houses and play area in the background. I liked the
dead tree that the artist was sitting on however. The stage location was good though.
• I loved both of the locations as they represented the theme on loneliness.
• As I said before I would change the locations however I thought they were good ideas. I
think the idea of a park and stage were good but they weren't executed well. The park
would look good without the play area and the houses. Also if a different staged was used
that would look great.
• The park location was good as it showed of the lonely theme as there was nobody else
around. The stage also did this as there was nobody watching. I thought the stage could
have been used more.
• Both locations are good especially the park location.
• I liked the park location but not the on stage location. I'm not exactly sure why I didn't like
it I just would prefer somewhere else.
• Yes I liked both locations. The stage location is good as it shows the loneliness as there is
nobody watching. The second location is quite good as it is again empty but the park and
houses in the background don't look too great.
7. • There is a narrative as the whole video shows the loneliness of the artist.

loneliness of the artist.

good.

showing the loneliness which the song is about.

any sense to me.

the character which links to the song.

• There is a small narrative with the loneliness aspect. I do like it but it could be
implemented better.
• Yes, the lonely Morrissey goes with the lyrics so this is a good narrative.

but I would have liked to have seen a bit more of a story.

9. • No I liked the two locations as it is.

on their own.

better.

• As I said I would have liked a third location preferably in a recording studio
or maybe with something on a green screen done too. A city location could
have worked too as well.
