Draft 3 – Peer Review
categories: Music Video
We finished our draft 3 off of the comments from our previous draft and sent it out to some other students to review.
Student 1:
What works well:
- Lighting and visual effects such as the layering
- Overall lighting works well in connoting to the audience how and what the performance in meant to portray (anger/desperation)
- lip syncing and overall editing phase works well with the sing and narrative
- performance and narrative is strong and works well with the song
What needs to be fixed:
- There seems to be an accidentally jump cut at the end of the the video after G lies back down
- G laughs at the end of the video after lying down, could just cut the video a second before hand
- not so much about what to fix but a suggestion of lighting and colour gradient the lighting choice in the container
- changed contrast of the phone scene where G is messaging Jane as when the hook comes around it is timed with Jane screenshotting the chat, which took a closer look to notice
- drums aren’t always in sync but there not much you can do about that since G was in time
Overall, a really good music video that works well with the song.
Student 2:
What went well:
- Lip Syncing in time
- Good use editing
- Good variety of camera angles
- Good performance
Constructive Criticism:
- Maybe too much different effects going on
- Some clips are very long
- Don’t use snapchat (maybe messages)
Targets to improve on:
. Maybe look at the effects and sort out what may be too much
. Shorten some clips down
. Rework the messages to look better and more readable in the timeframe they appear for
. Fix the accidental end clip
. Rework our use of color correction
. Rework the clip of the actor lying down at the end
