Progress

This week we have created questionnaires for both our ancillary tasks and music video. We want our products to appeal to a young adult audience therefore our class members would be a perfect audience. We have also started our Evaluation, self evaluation is hard, having to be critical of our own work, but we have looked at other music videos and compared them to get a feel of the codes and conventions of typical music videos. As a group we have recorded a directors commentary to be played over our video including stills from our video and other music videos to show comparison.

Scanned Audience Questionnaire

we used our questionnaires to gain feedback on our video, the questions we put on our questionnaire were specific so we could get the most feedback. although as a group we knew there was a few problems with the video that we wanted to change and when copying onto DVD the whole video did not copy and therefore we had to show our video that wasn't the completed version we had seen ourselves. we told the audience about this problem and therefore they took this into consideration.

We found out that our video looked quite professional and reflected our Pop genre very well. We found that the green screening wasn't the best but there were parts that had been done really well, the certain parts that didn't work well were the green screened images on the black background. From what our audience said we found that they thought the protagonist was very confident however she could have danced more. The lip synching was a hit with the audience and the wanted more to occur throughout the video as it was that good. The brand image was easily identified and worked well. The countdown wasn't too easy for people to understand the purpose of it however they liked it which was pleasing for our group to hear. Overall, we found that the editing techniques were very good and the variation was super.

Our Final Music video

Our Logo

THis is our Logo and the title of our album, we chose to use our artists name as the logo as we thought that the font we used was simple yet interesting enough to use as our logo.

 P C P P Y

This is our brand logo for Poppy. The text is downloaded from www.dafont.com and is called 'Birth of a hero'. We chose this as it looks like something you would see on the front of an album cover and it is quite simple and doesn't over power our photographs
