When we finished our music videos we showed them to the whole class to get some audience feedback. As a group we got some great constructive criticism. I think that this really helped us as quite a lot of things went wrong or just not how we wanted them to go so theres a lot we could improve on. They thought that our idea needed to be clearer or shown clearer as it got very confusing which leads me to my next point, continuity. The narrative of our video changed a lot and we ran out of time which meant that our video ended up looking quite confusing. We had to re-use a few clips right at the end as theres was still 30 seconds of the song left and no more footage to use. To make sure it wasn't so obvious i altered them by mirroring them and slowing them down or speeding them up. We were also complimented on our use of different styles of editing such as the speeding up and slowing down. This showed our experimentation when making this video. You got the feeling that the video was very rushed when being made.
Whereas, the rest of the class really liked that we changed it into black and white. We did this so it felt more vintage as the song is from the 1950's and it was much more effective this way. Our use of costumes and make up was praised as well. We put a lot of effort into the visuals such as the mise-en-scene but when it came to the cinematography and the editing especially we were weak.
