PEER FEEDBACK FOR ROUGH CUT VIDEO

Note: Our rough cut was designed purely to test the green screen capabilities as we hadn't filmed any actual footage prior to this. The music also didn't render as the audio source was on a CD which had been removed thus it couldn't find the music on the computer.

CLASS FEEDBACK

1. Quality of footage: Camera work, mise en scene etc.

• The camera work is very well done, theres no shaking of the camera and the shots are good.
• Good use of green screen/good idea but needs to be put on background better.

1. Use of transitions: edit types.
   

• Good use of transition, the editing at the beginning is very effective.
  
• Good use of editing the opening of video where it shows Josh then he goes into cartoon then back out- very effective.

1. Evidence of Conventions, which ones? Which genre?
   

• From the footage you can tell its a sort of indie band from the way they pretend to play instruments.
  
• Quite typically indie with the band members actions.
  
• Performance based video.

1. What is missing? What needs to be added/changed?
   

• The music needs to be added so you get an idea of the genre and whats going on.
  
• Variety of shots could be included-hard to analyse as you have a very rough cut with little to feedback on, however, what you do have is well edited-could put in different/more camerawork in (close up's etc).
• Hard to judge without the music but needs some more variety of shots and obviously the newspaper footage part needs finishing.
• Lack of instruments looked a bit weird.
• Music is missing.
• More footage needed.
• Maybe some instruments needed.
• Another green screen location.
• More close up's of faces.
• Are you going to sing? If so some shots of that would be beneficial to the group.
