Digipak and Poster Feedback
Our audience feedback has been extremely helpful when developing our products. From our 25 word pitch, all the way to our final video. This feedback was useful as it allowed us to identify the weaker elements and change them in order to achieve a better result. I feel that our video has improved a lot from our first draft, this is thanks to the feedback we were given by the target audience.
After screening our animatic, we answered any questions that our audience had about problems we might face when filming and ensured we had a clear vision and plan about what we wanted to do. The main feedback we got was to make sure our star was singing throughout and to include plenty of close ups. We took this advice on board and produced a first draft video. We got a lot of criticism in response to this, which is what we expected for a first draft. It became apparent the outdoor shots were not popular amongst our target audience so we made it our priority to replace these shots with new footage, indoors. Despite the feedback of needing to re-film the shots with the boy, we were unable to do so therefore we added an effect to those shots to add interest for the audience.
Our second draft saw the introduction of lots of re-filmed shots including some of which in HD. We got very positive feedback towards these shots. Unfortunately, these now made our other shots look weak and we were advised to re-film the weaker shots. As well as this, our feedback towards the footage with the male role was still negative so we made the decision to find a new male role to act in our video. We ensured their was minimal height difference between the male and female role due to our feedback on this previously. Our final video is a huge improvement from our draft, we are pleased that we received the criticism that we did as we have been able to listen, take it on board and make the suggested changes which were extremely helpful.
I found that I had a lot of changes and improvements to make to my digipak and poster. It was mainly an issue with images however after taking new photos and editing them into black and white, I managed to achieve a much better result. I also chose to remove the panoramic beach shot across the three inside panels since, as pointed out by my feedback, it was completely unrelated to our video. Instead, I used head-shots of our main star as this seemed more appropriate. For my poster, I knew there were quite a lot of improvements to be made. I firstly solved the image issue by using my new font cover image for my main poster image so that the audience can make the connections between all the products. My feedback commented on the fact that my album star ratings were over-sized so I reduced these so they didn't take too much focus of the page. After making all of the suggested changes, my final result looked much more professional.

Re-filming
Today we re-filmed our music video. We used Patrick as our male role as he was available and well-suited to the role we needed him to convey. We managed to get all the shots re-filmed that we had planned which now means we can get on with editing the new footage tomorrow.

Evaluation Presentation Ideas
When searching for ways that we could present our evaluation questions, I found a website called xtranormal. (http://www.xtranormal.com/) We feel that this would be a great way to show our feedback in evaluation question 3 as it would be much more interesting than just reading text off a page.
