"A nice range of shots and good use of location, in particular the beach sunset. Lots of thought has obviously gone into camera angles and story boarding and this shows in the final piece. An initial criticism would be a lack of narrative in relation to the song however this is relieved with the photo album at the end of the piece. A very strong video with good reference points coming from the stop start animation and band onstage. Impressive to get that much stagelight working but get the guitarist to wear a darker top next time, dayglow compared to the other two."

Overall, we feel that the feedback we received was reasonably positive. The feedback from social networking allowed us to get the views and opinions of people who are in our target audience, gaining the views of people who do, and of people who do not know about media. People also offered some constructive criticism, such as that from ******** Cooke, who suggested that the video is a bit repetitive, with going from the shots of the band to the shots of the narrative and back again. This is something that we hope to address in our second version of the music video.
There were also some good comments that were given about our music video. For example, I am pleased that ******** Cooke noticed the book that the character was carrying, as we were unsure if this would be noticed by an un-briefed audience. Also, it was refreshing to note that Thomas Robertson felt the shot on the beach reflected a sunset - an effect we were hoping to achieve, even though the shot was filmed at 10:00am. Thomas' point about a lack of narrative will also be taken into consideration for the next edit.
