We have watched our music videos and have given each other feedback as audiences. I have received comments such as "good location" and "good weather conditions - sunny weather", the sunny weather is conventional for my music genre as its lively and colourful as its pop. I have also used close up which the audience thought connected with the audience as there is eye contact and the artist sings at the camera aiming at the audience.
My aim was to use one of the aspects of Andrew Godwin's theory - amplification, which the audience has said "amplification - dancing, smiling and close ups" and a comment from a student " I like how it focuses on her a lot and how the boy is excluded.", this shows that i have managed to tell a story within the video, i have told a story which relates to the lyrics although its not exactly linking to the lyrics.
From the feedback from the audience i can see that i have used good camera shots and successfully managed to tell a story within my video as the audience clearly understood the story and managed to link it with the actual song. Another student said "mise en scene links to the meaning of the song 'smile' as well as the blue sky and the colourful dress", I can see that the weather and the costumes i have chosen fit my genre and got my audiences attention.
As I looked at the real video clip i saw that we used only one location outside as the real video was taken outside and in the house. |Although we didn't take any clips indoors i think that the location outside was effective as it was a sunny day which fit the conventions of the genre for Lily Allen's music video. Before the music videos were viewed for feedback I thought it would of been a better result if i used another location indoors but from the audience feedback i can see that the location outdoors was effective as they said that the weather and the location fits the genre of my music video.
