2. Do you think the music video works
well with the chosen track?
From this question, we have learnt that the video does
connect well with the choice of song. This appears to
be mainly due to the atmosphere created in the video
(dark, tense, gritty) emulating the experience of the
theme; insomnia.
3. What would you do to improve the
music video?
Overall, we received few but various improvements we could
make, such as use of props, more shots of the lead singer and
improvements to some aspects of lighting. We recognise the
issues above and, if time allowed it, we would make the
necessary changes to aspects in the editing process, for
example, lighting and shot variation.
4. Do you feel you could follow the narrative?
Was the character well portrayed?
Looking at responses to this question, we found that the
majority of viewers could follow the narrative easily.
However, some viewers felt the narrative could have been
clearer, yet understand this “confusion” was to stimulate the
atmosphere of the video. On character portrayal, one viewer
claimed she even felt sympathetic for the character, meaning we
have accomplished this goal.
5. Do you think the visual effects used in
the video add to the theme?
In response to this question, we received only positive
remarks, the majority complimenting the use of superimposition
in the video, claiming it added to confusion and portraying
insomnia. The use of superimposition and quick cuts were
always going to be paramount for us in the creation of our
video, as we felt this was going to best display the distress of the
character.
6. The music video tackles the theme of insomnia
and madness. Do you feel this is portrayed?
From the responses we got from this question, we
believe that we have portrayed the theme of insomnia
very accurately. With 100% positive responses for this
question, the audience too believe this is a genuine
portrayal of the mind of an insomniac and what they
may experience.
7. Would you, off your own free will,
watch this video again?
Out of all the questionnaires, we received only one negative
response. However, this may be down to the viewers personal
taste of music, maybe being a fan of a separate genre. On the
other hand, the fact we received only one negative response
means that we have accomplished our goal in creating a music
video for our audience.
