Music Video Feedback

During class, my peers from A-Level watched my music video where they gave different kinds of praise of what I have done well. They also gave me feedback to further improve my video. Here are the feedback cards shown below:

Reading through my feedback, I noticed that one strong positive was the cinematography. I made sure that I had at least 3+ angles of each shot so that I would be able to cut to each angle every few seconds so that my music video did not get boring

One point I was told to improve was to make my narrative more clearer. Even though I understand what my peer is talking about, there was a point to make sure my narrative was not so obvious. This is because when looking for inspiration to create a music video in this genre, most indie videos did not have a story driven narrative. For example, in Liam Gallagher - Wall of Glass, there is no story in his music video, and he is the template of what I want my artist to be. Therefore, I wanted to make my narrative less noticeable as I didn't not want it to be the most important part of my video.

Another point was the fact that some of my footage was seen as shaky. This was because of the unavailability of equipment such as dolly's and camera grips which would of made camera work more steady. Because I have no budget, I am unable to buy this equipment therefore I have had to use steady hand camera work instead.
