The ancillary is idenifiable to the audience and will enable the target audience to relate to the band as the style suits the genre of music.







The editing in the video is really effective as is the editing in the digi pack and poster, especially as the imagary in the digi pack and poster corresponf to one another.





The camera angles are extremely effective in the video as thier has been quite a wide range employed.





All three of the ancillary products conform to the conventions of what is expected in music related products such as the chocolate box pose on the poster and video and lip- syncing in the video.







The imagary featured in the digi pack, video and poster all cohere to the style and genre of music created by the band producing a believable product.






The video has effective mise-en-scene which corresponds to what appears in the poster as well as the imagary in the digi pack creating a consistancy throughout the ancillary.

What have you learnt from your audience research feedback?

Having produced thirty questionarres to hand out to the audience members that viewed my music video and then anylyising the feeback that they gave it became clear that the relationship between the main male character and the female character could have been improved as the interraction between them both appeared quite false and forced, therefor in order to amend this i would ensure that the actors that i employed to be in my video next time would convey a more sincere and convincing partnership. Another point that became evident was the maintaining of peoples interest in terms of following the narrative as some people stated that at some points during the video thier interest was lost slightly. To improve this I would fasten the pace of the cuts in order to captivate the attention of the audience. However we also recieved a great deal of positive feedback; we asked "What do you think we did best at?" we recieved the following commets; "Variety of camera angles" "Good precision of editing i.e matching the editing to the beat of the music" and "The mix of narrative and performance".

I personally feel that the combination of both the digi pack and poster aid in enhancing the main product as the poster creates an initial notation of the style and genre of music that the band produces. Which can be detected by the misce en scene in the poster such as the style and clothing of the singer that I have purposely made the focal of the poster, thus this will create a preliminary fan base for the band. Likewise with the digi pack; this also allows the audience to form an initial impression of the band in terms of whether they wil







In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge the forms and conventions of real media projects?

Taken from the theory of Andrew Goodwin "A good music video is a clip that responds to the pleasure of music, in which that the music is made visual, either in new ways or in a way that accentuates existing visual associations". Having analysed my own and other proffesional music videos i can recognise that all of the features that Andrew Goodwin discusses in his theory are presnt. Therefor i have come to the conclusion that as the music video that i produced with my group meets the standard of what he set and conforms to his conventions my video is a sucess.




Professional video.


As you can see both of the music videos focus on the narrative of the song as well as coorperating a performance element as well in order to ensure that the existing visuals are "accentuated". Both of the videos also contain variouse close up shots of the artist in order to convey the meaning and emotion that the songs posses.
