Evaluation: Creative Arts Evening

On the 20th March, our school held a Sixth Form 'Creative Arts' Evening which allowed the Sixth Form of the school to exhibit their creative work to a hall full of guests. This opportunity allowed us not only to show our music video to a wide audience, but also the chance to ask the audience for feedback. To do this, a 'video feedback' booth was set up on the evening to allow guests to be filmed whilst they spoke about their opinions on our music video.


Here's a small brief to detail the content of the video below:

Below is a written copy of the speech (which is included in the video above), that my group performed at the evening to introduce our music video.

"For our advanced production in A-level Media, we followed a moving-image brief. As a group, we decided to produce a music video, to accompany the song ‘Misery Business’ by Tennessee rock band ‘Paramore’. Alongside this we produced other promotional material such as magazine adverts and CD and DVD cases.

Our finished music-video was truly a group effort that resulted from extensive market research, meticulous editing and a filming process that took us multiple attempts to capture the perfect mise en scene and reflect the genre we were working in.

Although we’ve had a lot of fun (and difficulty) throughout the whole process, ultimately we are proud of what we have produced over the four-month duration of the project, and hope you enjoy watching our music video."
