Evaluation Questions

 

 

Overall Evaluation

As part of our A2 coursework we were working in a group, We began by nominating a group leader. The reason we done this was to best benenfit the group and and work to our advantage. In the group my main input was during preparation and filming, I came up with a lot of ideas and approaches to the making of the video. I feel i am a creative person and this helped both me and the group. Our research also helped us as we watched vatious types of music videos. This gave us an insight to different approaches and styles of music videos which we could apply to our video. Also i done alot of the work we done on photoshop such as posters and images etc. as out of the group i felt i was the strongest using this software. Overall what i have gained from this is that i have developed and been introduced to softwares such as; VoiceThread, iMovie to name a few. These are products which i have had no previous experience with and have know developed my skills in this area from both the help from my group and my teacher. If i was to do this course again i think my approach would be very different, I would manage my time alot better as i understimated the difficulty and demand of the coursework, Also i think a second time round i would find it alot easier as i would be more familiar with the sofware we used for things such as the editing and lip syncing. I have taken a lot from this and have gain skills in both teamwork and using various softwares.

Feedback Music Video

As a group, we looked at the feedback we had been given and decided to re film a couple of scenes, along with an addition scene that will add to the start of the video.


We where told that we needed a female input into the video, this therefore giving the video a little bit more of a story and thread to follow, where as before we had no female input.


We will be posting a remake within the next few days and will looking forward to everyone viewing it.

First Draft of video

We have now completed the first draft of our music video and it has been uploaded to youtube and been announced on our artists twitter and Facebook page. We are awaiting feedback from our audience to see the positives and negatives of the video and then take note and change anything if necessary to improve the video. You can find more information about our first draft and watch the Music Video on our group blog. CLICK HERE

Group Reflections

Here is an update on how my group is getting on:

All our research and planning is done, and we are currently in the middle of filming our music video with the group. We have some small extra bits to film for the narrative portion of our production to finish it up which we will get done over the next week. We have a lot of ideas so we will film what we can then discuss as a group what we think is the best. We have had a lot of fun during the filming. We hope to have our video done and edited over the next few weeks.
We now have our artist on social networks, Our Twitter account is up and running along with facebook page and website.
