Final Cut Feedback

Genre and generic conventions: Lots of artist facing the camera shots, centered around the artist which is a convention of solo artists.

Target audience: Shot in a play park which shows it was targeted at a slightly younger audience. Also shows how it could be liked by teens as the video involves a lot of shots of the artist.

Cinematography: Kept the camera still, framed well, zooms worked well, lots of good different angles.

Editing: Needed more transitions etc, liked the sped up bit at the start, probably needed something more than just a fade out at the end.

Mise en scene: The park was a good setting for a fun loving video, the outdoors was good for the acoustic kind of video and reminded people of good indie solo artists.

Similarity and intertextuality: Reminded people of other artists like Jack Johnson,

Finished filming

Yesterday we finished filming our video. We changed the original idea slightly and instead of filming in the train station we filmed in the grand arcade, in a lift and in the car park.

Filming

We have decided that tomorrow we are going to film other shots for our video. We have changed our plans and instead of filming in the train station we are going to film in the Grand Arcade and other locations in town. This is an example of where we are going to film.
