The questions I asked:
- What did you enjoy/like the most about the video?
- Did the pace of the editing match the pace of the song?
- What could be improved in the music video?
- Would you buy the artists album? Would you want to see more from the artist after watching the music video?
- Give the video a rating, on a scale from 1-10. (1 = just terrible, 10 = fantastic!)
I found the focus group gave me a far better chance to get people's opinions, than say a questionnaire.
When I asked the group to rate the video the average was 7.5, which I am very happy with! The group also made great contributions when it came to explain what was good and bad about the music video!
One member mentioned how the video's sharp editing and entertaining footage made it a more enjoyable watch. The group also mentioned how the variety of location made the music video aesthetically pleasing, as in the differentiation in the locations. As a group, they spoke about the costumes made the video easy on the eye, as the outfits, and how I edited it, was great to watch. The group also made points of where I can improve the music video, which I found really helpful. As a whole group they agreed that some of the lip synching didn't match up, which I myself agree. One member of the group, mentioned how the changed in the glasses throughout the video, made it appear as if I had made a continuity mistake, I had made a conscious decision to do this, but I appreciated the comments. When I asked if the group would buy the artists album, or would be interested in hearing more from the artist, some of the group said they would buy the album, and the rest of the group said they would definitely listen to more of the artists songs. I'm also really happy with my efforts as the group all agree that the pace of the editing matches the pace of the song, which is something I found to be really difficult, and so I spent alot of time doing this, and was happy the time paid off.
I'd like to say a HUGE thanks to everyone who gave feedback on my music video!
