What have you learned from your audience feedback
- 1. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
- 2. To collect audience feedback I created an anonymous survey on freeonlinesurveys.com and posted the link with the video on twitter and facebook. From this I had 10 replies, from people of different age and genders. This included some people who were not the target audience. This gave a whole view of the opinion of our video and would cut out bias. By the survey being anonymous people could put what they really believed. Due to Web 2.0 this was possible, not only has it given us information from google etc, but we can also provide information and get feedback, e.g. our survey.
- 3. We had a lot of positive feedback from the survey, especially people saying how funny it was. We were very proud of this because it was exactly what we wanted the video to be
- 4. We were also very happy that the narrative was clear and it was appropriate video for the song.
- 5. We did have a few comments on lip syncing. When editing it was good however may have been affected when uploaded to youtube. It may have been due to poor embedded on facebook/twitter. Also a few comments were made about the Amarillo spoof section. It was not stable as we were using a dolly and the floor wasn’t completely flat. This made the movement bumpy and we had to reshoot a section with me standing still but pretending to walk, this was so the camera was still, and later on we kept the camera still and I walked from a further distance due to learning from our original experience.
- 6. We did have comment that the OK Go spoof wasn’t obvious. The results show only 50% recognised OK Go, this could be due to two factors. The first reason may be because they didn’t know the original video. The other reason may have been we didn’t get our spoof exactly the same. We had 3 thread mills but couldn’t move them due to health and safety. Because of this we couldn’t have them in the same set up as the original video. We tried to have the same costumes and part of the same choreography as the original video but shots and certain parts changed for comedic value. Only 80% recognised the Bohemian Rhapsody video and same with Amarillo. I believe this was because they didn’t know the original video as the costumes, shots and choreography were very similar.
- 7. We had a lot of advice verbally on how to make it funnier, and that people wanted to see more of the bear. We also had two more scenes with Paddington and me, one playing poker and the other in the car. Unfortunately we couldn’t use them as they would not fit in the time frame and we didn’t want to cut anything out. The comment above was something we considered however we saw a similar video by an a-level student when researching, in which she has a romantic relationship with a gnome, we didn’t want to copy that and wanted to be unique.
