Pitch Feedback

After presenting my 3 pitch ideas to the rest of the class, I asked someone else to record all of the feedback that I was given and not down what everyone said. The general comments that I gathered were:

• That I needed to be careful to not copy the original, official video for the song 'Why'd you only call me when your high' as the narrative that I had explained sounded very similar to the original.
• Also, for my second and third ideas, some people noted that I may find it hard to find the range of locations that I was planning on filming my video in.
• However for the same two ideas, they liked the idea of the person in the video finding things that brought back different memories and said that this approach would be effective within the video.
• However it was also mentioned that my first two ideas could become more of a montage and begin to drift away from a narrative.
• Overall, most people agreed that the target audience for my ideas would be late teens as this is most common within this genre.
• A couple of people agreed that for my third idea, 'What went down' by FOALS, that a more metaphorical approach could be used, for example, having a number of visuals, actions, or shots that create and reinforce the metaphorical meanings that can be heard within the lyrics.
• Overall, it was said that my third song idea was the best song out of the three and the best narrative that I had pitched was the one for the second idea. So I think that in order to be more successful, I will take note of this and consider it when I come to the production of my video.
