What patterns or trends did you notice from your audience feedback?
In terms of positives the video was said to have good information and the stories were relevant to those who watched it.
On one occasion I was compared to IGN which is a much more professional variation of news updates in gaming.
For improving the Music that i used was apparently quite distracting so I should consider making it less prevalent.
The Audio was apparently also quite hard to hear in general so I will work on adding clarity to my voice.
In addition to this the audience also wanted to see more eye contact which I will work on for my next project.
What did you learn from thinking about this?
I feel that for visual effects I am doing fine but I must refine other skills such as Audio levelling and Eye Contact.
These can improve both through practice and exposure to more projects.
How might you make improvements to your work based on what you’ve learnt from your audience? Be specific
I want to improve my Eye contact as it seemed to distract a few people. The same applies for my Audio work as the music
Bothered most of my audience, my voice also was hard to keep track of which is very important for an informative video
My visual effects specifically transitions and custom effects I feel I can improve on as well. I would also like to gather my
Own clips next time as well.
Talk about three issues you had during production. These could be based on practical parts of the work, supporting tasks
such as research or even audience surveys.
The audio was difficult to manage, I found that I had a lot of echoes in my voice which made me sound like I was
1. in a large room, this was a big factor in how my audio ended up the way it is but I feel I managed to compress it to
an acceptable level.
Finding examples of 60 second news updates. This was surprisingly difficult though I did use exclusively YouTube
2.
so perhaps that was why it was so limited.
Selecting Music, as is evident from my feedback I made a bad choice for music. This is a subjective topic for
3.
certain, but it is still a blaring factor.
2. The 60 second clips were eventually found by finding science and political news, surprisingly there is a lot of it!
The music I ended up using wasn’t all that appealing to my audience, in future I feel I could spend more time
3.
getting better music and doing a bit more research into what my audience likes.
Write about at least three things which well during the whole process?
Talk about what you felt went particularly well about them.
I feel that the Visual effects such as the moving background was done well, I feel I managed to make enough
1.
subtle additions that were not distracting but nice additions none the less.
For writing I feel I have remained informative and given a good enough amount of elaboration in my topics and
2.
the questions presented to me.
I feel that my attitude towards this assignment was well done, I tried my best to give good enthusiasm in the
3.
recording and had a lot of fun actually making the 60 second videos.
And finally, write a small amount about what you enjoyed about the project which you could possibly use in future work
or assignments. This could be from research, design or your practical production process. Feel free to use screen grabs.
In the project I enjoyed recording myself and ignoring my own self critique as I need to build confidence in this industry,
researching in the industry of esports also allowed me to see how critics and general audiences have a large impact on
the sales made which showed me that I must appeal to my main audience where possible. I also liked the mass amount
of usage of Premiere Pro as I feel like I learn something new each time I use it, learning as much about the software as
possible will obviously help a load when I am in the industry and having to use said software.
