16.10.12 - Peer Feedback

In class we gave each other peer feedback on a mindmap. In turn we each listened to each others songs and were able to given written feedback on possible ideas on: texture, colours, shots, storyline, possible scenes etc.

Peer ideas from listening to the song

My initial ideas and opinion of what the music video could be

From the peer feedback I have been able to finalise some ideas for the music video, also it was nice to read that many of my peers were thinking along the same lines as I was, however have given more specific details in what I could do. 

One of the ideas was to show the contrast between the relationship of boy and girl, this is the main concept of the music video, showing the process of the artists relationship with a guy, however I think that the idea to emphasise the different between past and present through the editing technique of grey scale is a good idea, it would be nice to possibly learn how to do that on Final Cut Express but also to introduce another theme/ motif or moral - illustrating that relationships are not just black and white, but many shades of grey. 

Another idea that I liked was looking through old photos; I would like to develop this through possibly making the images come to life (such as is used in Cher Lloyd - Want U Back).

From the peer feedback I have been able to develop my initial ideas and I am now a step closer to creating my Final Storyboard. Also from the feedback I have been able to select possible motifs that could be featured in the music video such as: cliché rose, love hearts.
