Feedback 8.11.10

Sarah and Amelia,

You have made some progress here. However, I am disappointed to see that you have not posted anything over the weekend. You are already way behind where you should be that you eed to be working on this in your own time.

Although you have started to show some evidence of resarch and planning, it is still quite minimal and basic in content. You need to spend some time improving the quality of your posts. Your synopsis post begins to describe the video but only mentions the opening. You need to produce a detailed storyboard and shot lists to describe your ideas in more detail. Perhpas you could embed videos that use similar techniques to those you are planning. The chart stats that you have found need analysing. You say you will look at the artists that appear in the list to see what audiences like, so do it! Comment on what you can learn from this list that will help you in your video.

In the post about actors, include some casting shots to illustrate. Show the reslts of your questionnaires - graphs, charts etc and then analyse them. What have you learnt about or from your audience that you wil now use in your planning?

Also, each of your analyses could be improved and strengthened further by firstly, embeddingthe actual videos in to the post. (To do this you must be on 'edit HTML' when you write the post.) Also, discuss the use of genre codes and conventions (both of music videos in general and also of the music genre). You also need seperate posts on the conventions of musc videos in general - See your courseowrk books and the powerpoint with Andrew Goodwin's theory. Also, research the conventions of your chosen music genre - analyse some videos and identify the conventions you must use. You also need a post on Branding - what this is with an analysis of the brand identity of an artist or band.

You have plenty to be getting on with! See me if you need any further explanation and see the checklist in your packs for detail on what you must include.

Mrs Abell
