Our audience feedback has helped us develop our video significantly, from the early stages of our

video when our rough cut was presented up until our final cut version. We introduced our

rough cut to family and friends in order to receive constructive criticism about what

improvements we could make, a number of comments were made such as…

‘Little variety of shots, needs something more’

‘Drags on for toolong, to improveuse more locations’

Once we had acknowledged the negative criticism we decided to shoot additional footage in a range of

locations as we were determined to produce the best possible outcome for our final cut version.

We filmed more f

ggested we didn’t

have enough variet

y of shots.

We added more of the footage from the Showroom location, as some feedback

told us we needed to include more locations.

When our video was complete we staged another viewing to the same audience, to see if they thought we

had improved our work. Our audience were amazed at how far our video had

progressed and stated that the video was enjoyable to watch and includes

all of the conventions required to make a successful R&B video.

‘’EnjoyableTo watch’

The audience also pointed out that our video had an energetic feel to it through the burst of

colour within one of the locations and the upbeat street dancing, this was important to us

as we wanted to create a lively atmosphere within our video.
