Feedback from group presentation

Our presentation went very well, we all feel that we had a clear, well constructed pitch and that our ideas are very strong. We used a PowerPoint presentation to provide visual aids for us and the audience, we presented our mood boards, audience research, results from textual analysis and our initial ideas for the music video. The class were very enthusiastic about our ideas and they were especially positive about some of the camera techniques and stylistic features that we presented to them that will go in the music video.

From comments made by the the class we have picked up some new ideas and made some changes to our own initial ideas;

• We are now going to include a fairly loose narrative in with the performance side of our video, centering around the idea of the band being stolen goods salesmen. Following on from the idea about the new guitar as in the song lyrics the band members could be selling the stolen goods to save up enough money to buy the new guitar.
• We will have the band wearing casual suits and trilby hats and carrying old leather suitcases in a typical cockney south London style.
• We also decided to shoot at a new location- the beach, and have all of the shots during daylight as this was the feeling that most of the class put forward.
• The video will have a fun, cockney humour to it with a British realist style portrayed through the band.
