G324 - Rough Cut 2 and Feedback

 -Happy that the shell shot has gone
-When one of the band members is playing the guitar you are not able to see all of the guitar and the shot is too long.
-Beach scene is much better
-Lovely comedic elements
-Glad the present has changed
-Solo isn't on the guitar
-Some shots too long
-Like the close ups of the instruments
-Really like the Christmas scenes
-Great lyric visual relations
-Great locations
-Good instrument shots
-Pouring wine shot is too long
-Good montage
-Instruments occasionally not in frame
-Bass headstock gets in the way of guitar solo shot
-Good narrative
-Establishing shots are brilliant
-Some performance shots are too long
-Really good beach shots
-Good use of locations, costumes and actors
-Lip syncing is good

From this feedback we will change the shot of one of the band members where you can only see part of his guitar as we got this feedback from rough cut one and rough cut 2. We have also had several comments on the length of some of our shots. We will change some of these shots and add in new shots to make sure we have shorter shots.

G324 - Rough Cut 1 and Feedback

 -Nice performing shots
-Lovely boat shot
-Narrative is clear- nice comedic elements
- Don't like the shell shot
-Nice whole band shot
-Video is appropriate for song
- Nice use of pan on beach and bench shot
- Nice montage at the end
-Nice consistent use of close ups
-Possibly more band shots
-No shaky shots
-Range of shots is good
-Good lip syncing
-Great transitions
-Cuts well timed
-Nice framing and continuity
-Like the bird over the sea
-In instrumental with guitar solo, couldn't really see the hand playing the guitar
-Interesting locations and shots

From this feedback we are going to change the elements that people did not like or did not think worked well. We will change the shell shot in this rough cut as we also do not think that it works well in the video and does not help the narrative flow properly. To replace any shots of the narrative that we change we may also add in more band shots, as that was some of the feedback we got.
