Music Video Evaluation on Focus Group

Focus Group

Production Log-6

This week my group and I have put together a series of opened and closed ended question for our qualitative and quantitative research. When coming up with the questions we found it quite simple as our idea was very realistic and so we were able to produce good questions.

Next we went on to film our focus group with 4-5 pupils from year12 and 13 in order to vary the ages and ethnicities. This went well in terms of getting everyones opinions, however we realised that many if not all the people we asked were one sided in their opinions, saying that they did not like the actual song itself, the idea was complicated and the characters were not going to be able to represent the Canadian artists well.

From this we decided to draw a line on going with Selim's idea, and instead go back to our original intentions of using my idea and song. Since, agreeing on this we have produced a new set of questions to go with the new song and idea and filmed a new focus group. Our next steps would be to continue developing our idea and film our focus group evaluation.

Apartment flat- living room

One of the locations we chose to film at is in a small cafe in Kennington park. We decided to film there because the interior of the cafe looks similar to a living room, which we think will look good as it is much more spacious than the apartment. It also looks like a living room of a house from the inside. The park is also located quite close to all of us and is about 5 minutes walking distance from my house which makes it easily accessible to me if per say my group members were not available to film. In terms of the permission, we have already gotten it from the cafe manager who has said that we are welcome to film at any day, any time. This location is going to be part of our 'flashback' scenes where the two characters will be acting out their happy moments spent together, and although this is not the only location that is going to be used to show the couple during their happy times and memories it is still going to take up a few shots and so we'll need to pick a day from our production schedule that will be sunny, to show them enjoying the weather on a day out. Another location we're going to be filming in is an apartment flat, which belongs to my neighbour who I have kindly asked her permission for.  The flat was in fact used before for filming when I was making my unit 1 & 22 short film, and from that experience I found that it would also be suitable for filming the music video. The shots in the flat are going to be showing the female character (the girlfriend) lipsyncing the lyrics of the song we have chosen (Amanda Kaletsky - Desire). These shots will convey her regretting the relationship and remembering the happy memories she once shared with her ex boyfriend.
