Group: Pitch review

We presented our pitch to our class and to the teachers last week, and the general feedback was good. People thought that our idea was very well suited to both the artists style of his videos and also the genre of the music. In particular it was thought that our research into the mis-en-scene was very good particularly the costume and locations to shoot in.

The overall decision for our audience research was good, it was thought to be a good idea that we conducted our research via social networking sites for ease of answers and also to gain more detailed and open questions.

The only real questioning point as a result of our pitch was that we had not been able to explain the narrative part of our video as we did with the performance area. This is because we did not have a reccie prepared for the narrative like we did for the performance part. Because of this the people that viewed our pitch were not able to fully understand the aesthetic that would be promoted in the narrative part of our story, however it was apparent from the pitch and from our audience research that having the juxtaposing performance and narrative parts would probably be the best way to go forward as the song is really two songs put together and the audience should be able to distinguish between them in the video.

As a result of this pitch we will now ensure we created a reccie of at least part of our narrative including the locations and specific shots to a high standard and in a similar format to our previous reccie which was sort of like a montage of our favourite shots. Hopefully once this is done it will be more obvious and easier to explain how our narrative version of the song is going to be portrayed.
