Final Cut Feedback
For our final cut feedback we collected our data in 3 different formats 2 of them being our traditional methods, one of which was questionnaires created by tom and one of which was a focus group which was organised and carried out by Abbie and Danielle. The third collection method was skype interviews which was done by myself, we decided to conduct skype interviews as well as our traditional collection method so that we could conduct private interviews giving people freedom to say exactly what they think and also to reach people which were not available for our focus group. Below is the results and videos.
Skype Interview
filmed and edited by Jamie Robinson




Focus Group
filmed and edited by Abbie and Danielle
This is the formal interview conducted by myself and Abbie, I took on the role of editing this due to Abbie being the main editor for our vlogs. The comments from this interview were very positive and full of praise for the product that we made.
For the first question we asked regarding what the most effective part of the narrative was our participants in the interview stated that they liked how the breakdown of the relationship was steady and subtle, they also liked the consistent use of filters in order to display the different moods at the time. This feedback was helpful as filters and non verbal communication were the two most prominant elements when it came to displaying the breakdown of the main characters relationship, so it showed that our audience are able to understand the theme of the narrative.
Another question that links nicely with the previous one was asking if our audience understood what the narrative was about, we were really happy with these answers due to them stating exactly what our narrative was about, this being mental health and the breakdown of a relationship. We asked a question based around lighting and our audience stated that they really enjoyed the use of warm and cool tones in the happy and sad moments as they really excentuate the emotions. They also liked the use of the soft warm tones of the performance lighting, they stated that this fits the conventions of the indie genre highly. We gave our participants the opportunity to speak about conventions and costume choices, they highlighted that they liked our use of the text overlay at the end of the video becausee it helped them understand the end of our video being the main females unfortunate suicide. They stated that they felt the costumes were highly conventional of the indie genre due to them being very minimalistic. Finally we asked if there was anything they didn't like, some stated that they felt the match on action scene with Ryan leaving the house after an argument scene was slightly too quick, in hind sight we could have slowed it down slightly in the editing process but we felt as if it showcased the emotion after the argument scene really well.
