Looking at Evaluation Q3

I have produced some plans for the third evaluation question, looking at what I have learned from audience feedback throughout my project.

I made a plan looking at all the blog posts about audience feedback and what I learned from each of them. I am going to present this in written form using screenshots from all my rough cuts to show development after feedback. I will also use pictures of my ancillary products and talk about how they developed after audience feedback.

Looking at Evaluation Q2

This is my plan for the second evaluation question looking at the effectiveness of my video and ancillary products.

I have written down all the links between the three products.
I will be presenting it in a power point or mind map.

Looking at Evaluation Q1

I have written out a plan for my first evaluation question.

The format that I will be using for this question is a video where I talk over the top of my final piece explaining to the you where I used conventions of real media texts and where I challenged them.
I will be recording the voice over soon and will put the video together at school using Premier Pro.

Complete Final Piece

Ancillary Product No.1 - Digipack



Ancillary Product No.2 - Magazine Album Advert

Video Updated

Taking the constructive feedback from my audience, I have completed my final cut!
I increased the length of the final shot by changing the speed of the clip after the two characters land in that location. This effect also helps the ending look emotional and it nicely brings the video to a close.

Audience Feedback for Final Cut

I posted my current final cut to Facebook asking people on my friends list to watch it and give me some feedback.
The response was quite amazing as it got 44 likes, 1 share and 8 comments. Here are some of the comments below:

 The others included,
 "There are no faults with this!"
" Brill. I was captivated"
"This is amazing I was mesmerised"

Then talking to more of my target audience the day after I posted it I received wholly feedback from a number of people expressing how they loved it.

One thing that it was noted I could improve on is the length of the fade out at the ending. I need to make the fade longer so the impact of the two together is properly received by the audience.

Thinking About Evaluation

• In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
• How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
• What have you learned from your audience feedback?
• How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

These are the questions that I need to start thinking about and then ultimately starting to answer using a range of different methods or technologies.

Q1: Conventions of real media products

I need to look at: my research into existing music videos influenced my own planning of my music video, how my research into print products and branding conventions influenced my digipack and album advert, how and why I decided to do these things, why I decided to challenge some forms and conventions and why I chose to use and develop some.

Q2: Branding

I need to look at: my research into branding and how I used this information to create my own brand, the parallels between my video and print products and why I made them.

Q3: Audience Feedback

I need to look at: how audience feedback influenced my decisions within my video and print products, how effectively I have kept in line with appealing to my target audience .

Q4: Media Technologies

I need to look at: which technologies I used in research  then planning and then for evaluation such as camera, blogger, Premeier Pro, Photoshop, Vimeo etc, how effective they each were for showing/creating my work.
