Pitch and Feedback

This is mine and Jess’ feedback video on our pitch:

Overall, our feedback was positive and our pitch was received well. We discussed our plot, what mise-en-scene we are going to use to create meaning, what camera angles and shots we will include and so forth. We were asked specific questions such as what will our narrative vs performance ratio be or what is the background to our narrative. We also received some constructive criticism and thought abut what we would need to consider going forward both in pre-production and on the day of the shoot.

Positive feedback:

• Good narrative
• Attention to use of mise-en-scene
• A variety of settings
• Good communication
• Interesting meaning behind the song/music video
• Simple and effective plot

Goals:

• Consider staying away from flashbacks – not always needed
• Give clothing more thought
• Only have our actress lip syncing to one of the singers to avoid confusion
• Make sure we are very organised
• Think about how we will get from setting to setting
• Ensure we include lots of close ups
