Evaluation Planning 3 & 4

3. What have you learned from your Audience feedback?

This is my audience profile. (who i aimed my products at)


These are some screen grabs, evidence of feedback.



 I thought about doing stop motion to start my music video. However i gave myself some thought and feedback on the idea and decided not to, i didn't think it fitted with the action within the music video. I also asked my family and friends whether i should include it or not and they agreed that it wouldn't go well. The friends feedback was reliable because they are at the ages between my target audience.











From receiving constructive feedback i chose to change the whole concept of my first music video idea. Reason for this is that the action and narrative storyline was not going along with the music and not working.

4. How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Blogger to post my posts online viewable by anyone with Internet access.
 Used YouTube to find inspiration of current real music videos.

TubeChop was used to cut down certain YouTube videos if i wanted to post a certain section or element onto my blog.

Facebook was used to advertise my music video and get feedback.

 I used microsoft word to produce word documents and then put them onto the blog.

Twitter was used to make a band profile and get the music video noticed online.

 Google allowed me to research current media.


Those above are the websites and social networks i have used.
I will also take photos of technology i have used to produce my 3 products.

Evaulation Planning 1 & 2

Evaluation 1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and coventions of real media products?



Bloc party- so here we are (influence of camera angles and action)
I copied the camera angle throughout the bloc party video onto my music video, however they would have used professional equipment to keep the camera steady whereas I used a tripod and made each person hold it.


Example album cover influenced me to do the multiple pictures on the cover.









Change of plan -
My change of plan indicating the elements I wanted to use in my music video.



I chose this song because at the time I was listening to this song non-stop.  This worked against me because I did not think of too much of it at the time, however when into my research I would of changed the song and possibly the genre to match a video I would of liked to make.


Evaluation 2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?


On my album cover i copied the convention of having many images of the main character (myself) reason for this is because in my music video i have many different faces appearing and i thought that the album on to the right would be a good fit because its similar in the way of one person but with the use of many props and clothing gives of the sense of many attributes/faces to a person.
