Evaluation Q4: How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Evaluation Q3: What have you learned from your audience feedback?



From my audience feedback, I have learned that it’s difficult to get the audience to understand the message I want to get across in 3 minutes. The surreal effects were a comment left on my feedback forms, which I added, making my music video more aesthetically pleasing. Feedback of the lack and white and colour grading of my music video received positive feedback. The feedback forms allowed me to get direct feedback from my demographic as the music video was tailored to people of the same age group as I. As I was close to the project, the feedback forms highlighted my mistakes or opportunities to revise in editing, cinematography and mise en scene which allowed me to rectify them for my final product.

Evaluation Q2: How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

Evaluation Q1:In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Final Draft - When I am Through With You - Symptoms



I was unable to fix the green screen due to After Effects being out dated on the school's system.

Final Feedback Sheets

In order to complete my final piece I need to refine my cuts, sync up any out of place lip syncing and sort out the green screen

Draft of Music Video






In this draft I have got rid of any white lines, and synced up any out of place videos to the music. I have taken out some surreal shots such as the hand on the wall. I just need to fix the green screened mirror in Adobe After Effects.

Digipak and Poster



It was suggested to make minor changes to my digipak and poster. For my poster I needed to take out 'out now' and remove the front cover for the digipak, as it was thought that this image was strong enough as a front cover and should be changed from the original.

When I am Through with You - Symptoms

New Music Video



I have followed the feedback and attempted to fix my music video. Some of the lip syncing is still off, I think I need to add additional 'weird'/surreal shots and finalise some of the cuts.

Updated Music Video



I have changed the MP3 file to WAV and it sounds a lot better because it doesn't skip. I need to still sync up my music video - I really like the more surreal shots and I think I should add more. My favourite shot is the chandelier. I still to to cut some shots down and fill the blank space at about 1.40 during the video.
