Audience Feedback

Once my video had been completed I was very keen to get some feedback on it! I put a link onto Facebook and asked friends and family to leave their thoughts and feelings on it underneath.

My friends and family gave me some really good feedback. I am particularly pleased with the good comments on my editing, as it was the most taxing process throughout creating the product!

Choosing My Magazine Advert

After getting some feedback on my original advert I decided to play around with the layout of the text.

Above are two of the rough layouts I came up with. Someone suggested I try putting the band name at the top so I tried this. However, this made the middle space look very empty, so I moved the album information into the centre to fill the space.

Final Advert

It was pointed out to me that using a release date would significantly reduce the amount of time a advert can be shown for. I decided to change the release information so that the advert could be featured in magazines over a longer period of time. I also played around with the levels of the image, adjusting brightness and contrast to make it stand out more. 

Overall I am really pleased with my poster. I feel that my research into conventions of alternative rock advert and album covers really influenced my final product.

Preliminary Task - Final Edit

I found editing the footage a real challenge! The sheer number of edits per second meant that it took a lot of time to make it look similar to the real thing. As a result I only managed to create the first 30 seconds of the music video but I am pleased with how far I got. The precision of the editing and lip syncing was quite difficult but I feel that this has prepared me for my main task as I know what to expect!
