Evaluation Question 3 - What have you learned from your audience feedback?

Having posted our video on Youtube, some comments have already been given. We welcomed 'constructive criticism' and one person left a hugely helpful comment as seen below:

We took this into consideration, and got some more footage of the band and performance shots, which we then edited into the final product and it does look a lot more professional.

In addition to this, we did some written interviews on some members of the target audience (an 18 year old indie fan and a 19 year old indie fan, William Gamble and Jon Anscombe.) Here's what they had to say.

What would you offer as some constructive criticism to improve the video?
W.Gamble: 'The video is awesome; but it would be much more effective if you had some more shots of the artists playing instruments... its kind of lacking in that area'
J.Anscombe: 'I agree with Will, also you should take into consideration the location. Its kind of obvious that some bits were filmed in the school music room, and that ruins the feel of the video.'

These are very important points that we took into consideration. We learned that we really should have taken the mise-en-scene into consideration much earlier on in the process. Nevertheless we managed to re-film most of the shots and indeed got much more shots of the performance pieces to improve the video, as this is what the audience asked for.
