Pitch & Reflection

In my opinion, I thought that in my presentation, I had excelled the amount of information that was needed pretty well. I gave a reasonable explanation for every key aspect that I would like to include into my music video. I also gave clear examples for the majority of the things that I would like to include in some way in the music video. Although I thought that my presentation went well as a whole, I think that some of the exampled videos could have been a bit longer so that the audience could have got a better view of what I was going for. I would also like to have added a bit more information on the artists look in which I could have said why I wanted it to be and indie style and how it would have related  it to the music video and genre a bit more.

From what I was able to see and by the questions I was getting, the audience did get a clear view of what my music video was going to be like. They were able to understand a strong structural base of what I am going to build on to increase the e overall look of my video when it comes to the completed edition. All of the questions that I was receiving was to go more into depth about each idea I would want to interpret into the music video at some point. There was strong feedback so that I know that ideas I had gone for would work well as the audience that was there for the presentation were aware. This could mean that a wider audience would also be able to give me the same feedback on my presentation and if not better so I could increase the overall look.

One weakness that was pointed out is that i didn't actually use animation in a way that i wanted it to be shown but it was special effects instead. In this case, I then corrected it to make the audience aware of what I was really trying to show. There was also a point where the actors had no filming time scheduled together so it was a bit confusing to the audience. I then also corrected this and said why they were not needed to film together by using individual footage and edit together and why I would do this as it is a point of view memory. Also not everyone was clear on what was meant by ‘indie’. This was then took into depth and I was able to explain it to the audience as a whole so they knew what it meant and was able to visualize it to my music video idea.

Overall, I think that there could be a few changes to make my music video idea better and more interesting to the viewers. I would maybe have actual scenes with the two actors together to make the video more relatable other than having separate footage and having to edit over it. Although it is a point of view flashback, if there was an actual scene with them together, it would make it more relatble and interesting. I would also try looking into a more understandable look so that it would appeal to more people as ‘Indie’ was clearly not a high up attraction to the audience in which I presented my pitch to because they didn't know what it meant. I would also add a few effect in there to emphasize each shot such as slow motion when the class breaks etc.
