First Lesson After Easter

So we have had two weeks off for Easter and now we are back we need to complete our evaluation which we were unable to finish before half term! During our lesson on Tuesday we were able to upload our footage, as before we were using the wrong camera and wouldn’t upload. We than started to edit we took moving images from our production and placed them in the appropriate places which relation to what we were saying, to make our evaluation more visual. Although we didn’t finish this in our lesson on Tuesday therefore we will be staying after tomorrows lesson to complete it.

Evaluation Questions

For our final piece of our coursework we need to evaluate our whole production and produce it in an interesting and creative way rather than a written essay. Our teacher showed us a number of ways which we could do this to give us some ideas, we have decided to make video using our voice over with images of relevant clips from our production.

We were all given the same elevation questions to answer, these were;

1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
4. How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Evaluation Question (Feedback)

Our of our evaluation questions consisted of us asking our target audience some questions about our final production and ancillary tasks to find out their opinions on it, we made sure we asked individuals who had never seen our production before so they were looking at it with fresh eyes and no background knowledge of it. We all asked three different people the same questions. I asked three of my friend two that go to my school and one that goes to a different school in the area they are all 18 therefore they fit into our target audience. There’s were;

1.    Do you think the theme and idea of the video is clear?

Alex; ‘ I like the theme and the angle you have taken to it, using the young girl really makes you think about the music video and it keeps you intrigued throughout as you want to know what happens’

Megan;‘ it makes you realise that beauty isn’t all about appearance as you realise it is a stange to see a young girl doing what you expend an adult to do therefore i believe it puts out a really inspiring message, it works really well!’

Hollie; ‘It is clear to see that it is about beauty and self-esteem’

2.    Do you think the production, digipack and magazine advert would appeal to our target audience of teenage to adult females? Why?

Alex; ‘Yes as it is about beauty and has a girly theme which is reflect in the font and colours which you have used’

Megan; ‘I really like the magazine advert as it makes you take a second look and think therefore it works well and will definitely appeal!’

Hollie; ‘I think it does appeal to both teenagers and adults as although it is girly it is still classy’

3.    After seeing the music video, magazine poster and digipack, do you think there is enough continuity to link all three together?

Alex; ‘I think there is although the band isn’t on the poster; Maya is which having seen the music video is a hard image to forget’

Megan; ‘The font really helps with the continuity; I really like how you have placed the band members on the band name’

Hollie; ‘They do all link together, nothing appears misplaced. You can easily link all three together’
