Feedback From Our Peers
We decided to share our music video with our peers on facebook in order to get feedback from our target audience. Our peers were then able to comment and post telling us what they like about the video and what its strongest points were as well as anything that they thought we could improve on.
From our peers we discovered that they enjoyed the upbeat and fun element of our music video and the boy-meets-girl love story narrative was very popular. They also felt that our editing was of a high quality meaning that our video looked professional. The only thing we found that they said we could possibly improve on was the syncing of our video, especially with the lead singer lip-syncing, which was something that we ourselves found very hard to do in the editing process.
Our Final Music Video
This is our final music video. We are all really pleased with the final product and feel that the amoutn of time, money and effort that we put into creating our video has paid off. We feel that we have successfully created a professional looking music video of a high quality that correctly fits the indie-pop genre and would meet the criteria of our target audience.

Lighting
As we chose to set our music video outdoors at night-time this meant that we needed various pieces of lighting to make sure our video was clear and looked professional.
For the party and dancing sequences we used this lighting in order to make sure everything could be seen clearly. We were able to put these at either end of the area in which we were filming and this produced enough light to film these sections. We only chose to use these lights for these sections as the rest of the scenes that we needed to film were quite fast paced and involved a lot of moving around and moving these lights would have been time consuming and difficult. We also had to hire a generator in order to power these lights in the wood but the strength of these lights meant that we were able to use them in between filming in order to light the space we were working as it got darker throughout the night.

The main light that we used for the filming of our video was a light which we attached to our camera. This light was incredibly bright and this meant that we were easily able to light up the actors enough to ensure they would be clearly seen in the final video. This meant that filming was much easier as we were able to get a variety of shots as the light moved with the camera, meaning that what we were filming was always lit. We also took the light off the bracket and held it which meant we were able to easily move it about and light what we needed, as well as creating various effects with the lighting in order to make our video look more professional.

Update
Having now finished filming for a third time, we have all of the shots we need. This time around we took shots from different angles and made sure we had a variety of footage. We can now edit the video and create the finished product. The filming still isnt quite the same quality as the first set of shots, but this is problem that we feel we can over come in the editing process.
