GM - Rough Cut 6 Feedback

Audience: We showed this version of the rough cut to members of our A2 media class (all aged 17/18years old). This is an ideal audience to show the rough cut to because it fits within our primary target audience for the music video of 15-24year olds. Our teacher also gave us some feedback on this version of our music video and he in in keeping with our secondary target audience. 

• check the frame size is consistent throughout (do first walking it?)
• check lipsyncing lines up fully
• (0.21s) 'we were free' layering - playful footage
• Robbie walking up the steps - random. Only use once. first shot too short?
• Break performance up - window <3 shot?
• some shakiness which needs to be edited out or deleted
• (1.11s) drum - edit to the beat
• (1.21s) frame boys face better, get rid of girls hand from the corner
• also crossfade with the following shot
• motion tab - ask for help? 100% in point, 0% out point?
• split 2 shot up where licking the spoon - add robbie
• shakes whilst licking lips - delete
• phone shot is too random, doesn't fit
• space in the sky and train - link phone in on a layer

This is something that we tried however we felt that the original sequence ran better with the remainder of the video.

• blowing out the candles - put where the track really slows down and almost stops
• end - use the candle being blown out rather than the light being turned off
• layer kids on concrete for CU of feet at station
• (2.10-2.11s) shakes
• (2.13-2.14s) edit to the beat when percussion comes in
• flare effects
• 'flying' something knocked over/being thrown
• train set - link with the older gen on the train
• train set - big shake - slow down more to solve?
• oldest gen - hands on bum - creepy? takes away from the mood of the song
• not innocent (take out)
• dancing gen1 layer with Josh gen 2 - multiple layers 3or4 - resize and reposition them
• speed up dancing ^
• whale 'looks like hes having a sexual encounter with the carpet' - either delete or layer the same shot over and over again
• layer the girls face over the rocks during performance shots
• in bed together - not innocent - wear pjs
• more shot variety for the Robbie performance shots
• fill in gaps
• Freezeframe kiss at the begining - to remove the shake
• Move 3 shot up screen
• Your smiling- zoom to smile - set in point/out point
• Robbie performance after train-cuts away too fast
• Split screen on drum beat
• More MC shots,enfatic body language cu of Robbie
• Freeze frames/split screens
