For Merit response
now skip to Conclusion
Distinction:
Task 6:
Assess
(judge, weigh up, balance) the feedback from client, target audience and peers
and draw conclusions from it.
Which sources is most valid/valuable in judging the
success and why?
|
The most valid
source needed was the feedback left on the video from the target audience.
Because they are the people that the advert is targeted towards and if there
is something that they don’t like we could change it. It’s vital because its
direct from the audience and with the comment system on YouTube (where our
advert was first distributed) we can answer them directly if we needed to ask
for their reaction towards the advert. IE did they enjoy it? Would they share
it across social media sites? This is crucial for getting the advert viral.
|
What were the expected or unexpected
findings?
|
Expected: I knew
that the advert would appeal towards the audience, so i expected them to
overall enjoy the advert as something simple. I also expected the message of
‘’pass it on’’ to be clear to the audience as there are two close ups of a
bright yellow sticky note with pass it on written in bright red pen. However
I also knew the advert wasn’t going to go viral because it’s so simple and
doesn’t take any risks.
Unexpected: On the
other hand, I didn’t expect the audience to pick up on the lighting issues
the advert had during certain scenes, most notably on one of the close-ups of
the sticky note. I also sure the audience was going have a problem with the
music that was used, because the music could overpower the advert at times.
However, the only feedback were the music has been concerned had been
positive.
|
Task 7:
Justify
their comments – why do you think they said/thought this and do you agree with
their comments/feedback
|
Summarise and
explain the strengths and areas for improvement
The biggest
strength of the advert would be that the message of ‘’pass it on’’ is clear
and that the audience was able to pick up on. This was because during the
post-production stage I was sure to add two different close-ups of a bright
yellow sticky note in the advert, to enforce the message of the advert.
The area for
improvement is the lighting during the advert. The audience picked up the
issues straight away as well as the client. This lighting problem is more
noticeable during one of the close-ups of the sticky note which has shown to
be a problem as one the audience members noted they didn’t fully understand
the message because they couldn’t see the note properly. So overall I agree
with the audience that the lighting problems need to be fixed.
What caused it (ie didn’t plan or have strong idea, shoot
original images?)
What caused the
lighting issues was where the actor was standing. The camera didn’t pick up
the lighting during the first part of filming and it was suggested that we
use a lighter to balance the lighting in the advert at first. However when we
filmed the second actor looking down at the note the lighting seemed to have
sorted itself out.
How did this affect
meeting the requirements of the brief?
The only real
affect this had was that the message of ‘’pass it on’’ isn’t clear at first
to some of the audience members. However they all realized what the message
was before the advert ended and said the message was strong regardless.
|
Merit/Distinction:
Task
8: Conclusion (weigh up the positive and improvements) was
your advert a success overall from the viewpoint of your feedback
|
Overall,
my advert was/was not successful in meeting the brief because:
Youth Audience (idea,
locations, pace of editing, costume, shots)
My advert was
successful in reaching the youth audience required for the brief. Because
there are enough shots to keep the audience interested as one comment pointed
out. The location where the advert took place could be seen as a college or
university library so it would appeal to both of the target audiences for
this advert. Finally the costume’s used in the advert were regular clothing,
so the actors look like they could be either college or university students.
Message (was clear
– story made sense, encouraged them to do this?)
The overall message
of the advert was very clear. Most of the target audience realized the
message of the advert which is to ‘pass it on’’ on their first viewing of the
advert. The message was made clear by two close-ups of two bright yellow
sticky notes with pass it on written on them. This also made the story make
sense to the audience of one person finding a ten pound note with the sticky
note, then deciding to do the same thing of hiding a ten pound note in a book
for another person to find.
Would go Viral
(taboo, outrageous, unusual, funny, special effects, memorable… would make
you share it?)
The advert would
not go viral as it lacks any of the elements of buzz. It was seen as a lain
simple advert with the message of passing on acts of kindness, but because it
was so simple it didn’t stand out much in comparison to other viral adverts
IE the 3kitty advert. However the message was clear and the advert was nice
so it would still be shared on different social media sites like: Facebook,
Intsagram and twitter.
Regulation
(copyright use of music?)
The usage of music
was one of the strongest points of the advert. The audience didn’t complain
about the volume of the music and it appealed to them. The music used was
copyright free music that was uplifting and fit the overall bright theme of
the advert.
