Audience Feedback

After deciding on my song I then played it to the class to get some feedback on any ideas they think I could include.

STORYLINE - 

5/8 people asked had a similar idea, they could see a RELATIONSHIP involved in the storyline somewhere.

3/8 People saw one person on his own walking through different locations like a park and fields, telling the story of the song.

The majority of people thought that a relationship, showing two different people in the film, would work the best and this I have to agree with it. I want there to be two different characters and it links with the lyrics of the song.

HAPPY OR SAD THEME?

Every person asked said that they could see a positive side to the song and that they wanted to feel happy at the end of the video.

This is also how I saw it. The song is about helping people and being happy!

CONCEPT, PERFORMANCE OR NARRATIVE?

8/8 people said they wanted to see a narrative cross with performance. So shots of the male character singing but while the narrative evolves around him.

I decided that this would be a great idea but I would need to make the whole video like this and if I wanted to use anything like a reverse scene then it would make it really tricky to sync in Final Cut. It's possible but I would have to record it more than once and I don't have time to learn the song backwards as I will be going to America with the school at the end of October.
