Audience Research: Rough Cut Feedback

In this post you will find a rough cut of my Main Task and a video of the feedback I received from my peers, detailing ways I could improve my video.

Due to some technical difficulties, I only managed to retrieve the last part of my video feedback. However I managed to note down some of the points included, for example:

  • At the end the camerawork was unclear and unsteady
  • The music may be to fast to fit the sad depressing theme
  • Quite a few dark screens, and cuts that were unnecessary.
I dealt with this issues, but there were some issues I could not deal with, as I had to meet a deadline. The first issue I could not change, and the actor I used was unavailable, and I did not have time to re do it.

Secondly, I slowed down the music using Ableton live in response to this criticism, and hopefully the music portrays more of a saddened theme.

Lastly I managed to sort of the sudden jumps and cuts, as these were just a case of where other things had to be added in, and I had not reached the finalised stage of the product.

A major issue with my film was representation. I aimed to create intense emotion within my film, particularly between characters, and therefore this relationship would have been built up over a number of scenes. However I had some issues when accessing locations, and therefore had to cut a few scenes out, and therefore this made it harder to portray these types of intense relationships that would have developed. I found it difficult to change this once I had completed my film.
