Specsavers Feedback
After the completion of our second draft we got some feedback from the creative department at Specsavers. They watched through our video and gave us some very useful ideas and tips. They had some really interesting things to say and their constructive criticism was very handy at bettering our own work. Another thing they helped us with was utilising premiere to its fullest potential in which they taught us shortcuts and little tips which can make our work flow more efficient. Some of the most useful things taught to us by the supersavers people where how to make new sequences to try new things, useful shortcuts to make working easier and some general tips to make what we have more understandable and more fluent.
What they liked about our video;
- Our performance is well shot and looks good
- Our narrative is well planned and cohesive
- our editing so far is interesting and maintains the pace of the video well
Their advice to improve;
- More connections between the doll and jack to create a more cohesive link
- Some more close ups of the doll
- A wider variety of shots throughout
- Push the scenes of the doll being stabbed further back to establish the narrative a bit more and to fit the mood of the song
- Show a few more scenes of the girl to make an even balance
in conclusion it was very useful having the creative team come to help us out and give us advice. it really opened our eyes on what we can improve and how we can utilize the software to its fullest potential. it was nice to get a new perspective and was very useful to have a discussion with somebody who is an expert in the field.
