Audience feedback

Audience feedback about my chosen song

I have gathered audience feedback about their opinion on my chosen song for my music video. I have social networking sites such a Facebook and Instagram, websites that I am able to send them the link through. I felt this would be the best possible way to receive a response, as my chosen target audience are influenced immensely through media sites so there are able to see what others think within their age range about my chosen song. It also allows me to get a quick response rate as they spent the majority of them day checking for the latest status update.

After receiving my results through either Facebook or Instagram, a lot of my respondents stated they would expect a scene where my artist is pictured glamorous with a sparkly necklace, holding a diamond. They felt this particular scene would help relate to the chorus of the song, relating and engaging the audience with a slight narrative and performance based music video. I personally agree with this feedback I received having my artist dressed in dull clothing would contradict the lyrics and meaning on the song therefore I would risk losing my engagement with my target audience. Also having my artist pictured with props will add to the atmosphere and angle of the shot within my music video which makes it more enjoyable to watch for an audience point of view. As well as asking my respondents about the mise en scene of my music video of the clothing aspect, I also wanted their view on where they felt one of the locations should be. One respondent had an interesting idea, which I was particularly fond of, was a bath scene. She stated after watching many pop music video, that has the tempo and similar meaning as the song ‘Royal’ she said many had their artists filmed in a bath, which she personally found effective.. My audience member also stated they would like to see many close-ups on the artists in order to see her facial features clearly.
