Our final music video


 Audience feedback

Audience feedback allows you to understand what people think about your music video. We had both positive and negative feedback which allowed us to view our strengths and weaknesses. Being able to understand the strengths and weaknesses will help us in our future projects. Many people really liked our location shots, we had a variety of shots in Piccadilly and Tower bridge we chose to film in these locations because they are iconic places that represents London and ideally the song American Boy includes lyrics about London.  So therefore we thought it would be conventional to use iconic location shots. We also had a lot of feedback about the costumes we used. For example the audience thought the costume really fitted in with the genre of our music. The performance the two artist displayed was believable and the connection between them was good. We tried to make sure that the two artist were able to have a bond, creating a good bond between them was actually really easy because they happened to get along very well. We were also praised on our editing because the audience thought the editing was up to beat. Having the editing up to beat is important because it keeps the audience in focus with the video. We were told that the camera shots and editing emphasized the narrative. On the other hand one of our weaknesses was our lighting, the audience thought in some shots the lighting could of been brighter. I also do partially agree with this point however because we shot our video during the night we had no natural lighting to reinforce  the cameras lighting. Another one our weak point was with our camera shot. For example there was a shot in the video where the female artist was dancing around a pole in Piccadilly. We only  used a long shot and a medium shot however the audience felt that having a close up would allow the audience to have a better viewing of the artist. Overall all this feedback really help me understand our strengths and weaknesses therefore in our future projects i will consider these feedback's.
