Question three
What have you learned from your audience feedback?
From our blog, class feedback and questionnaires we were able to find out opinions and suggestions from others to help us improve our work. We tended to have positive feedback and were told that the idea was good and worked well. We were also told the song choice and the idea for the video worked well together as they were both simple and emotional. Our first piece of negative feedback we recieved was a comment on the shadowing behind Livs head. We knew this was effecting the quality of our video as it made it look less professional. To resolve this we had to attempt to do three point lighting. To do this we researched on the internet the most effective way to do this, and we found the video below. We used three lights, one at either side and one from the front. This improved the shadowing when we filmed our final video.
Another comment that was made from our feedback was that on our draft Liv was wearing too much makeup and it didnt look realistic. We were told it didn't make sense as to why she was wearing so much.
After hearing this feedback we took it on board and toned Livs makeup down. She wore minimal foundation, red lipstick and some mascara. This looked a lot more natural.
Feedback also told us that Liv wasn't putting enough emotion into the video. So in order to make the video have more of an emotional impact, we practiced lots of times so Liv could feel comfortable and put more emotion into her facial features and voice. This proved to be more effective as it made the video and performance a lot more realistic.
At the beginning of our draft it opened on Liv and we were told it didn't look very good. So instead we decided to open it with a black background with Livs information on, Song title etc. This made the video look a lot better as it introduced the song and artist, and then drifted into the video.
Question Four
