Artefact 2 - Evaluation

The results came out very similar to the previous artefact but, with out so many variables that might of affected the participants and a much larger sample I could be more sure in the results. I found that age and gender does not appear to change the answers given and in contrary to what I had thought, most of the older generations prefer the modern style to the older style.

Showreel First Edit

As I went around london today I took with me, CVs, Cover Letters and this showreel (with my Leaving home trailer added at the end). I searched for some post production companies before hand and maps of how to get to the different places.

Artefact 2 - Beggining

As Artefact 1 had a variety of flaws in it i have decided to redo it but using two differnt clips, one is the first ever music video made 'Travelin' Man' by Ricky Nelson and the second one is 'Flowers and Football Tops' by Glasvegas which won best special effects in a music video 2009.
I am going to make it silent though so there is not any bias due to the type of music.

Artefact 1 - Reflection

After having completed Artefact 1 I realised there were a variety of problems with it and so, thought it would be a good idea to basically repeat this test but making some minor changes. The main problems were: firstly, I only had younger participants and secondly, the music seemed to play a large part in which video the participants preferred.

Artefact 1 - Final Artefact

Artefact 1 - preparation

After watching them all I chose to use Department of Eagles video for "No One Does it Like You". This was due to the fact i thought it was the video i could do the most with and started editing it. Originally I was going to use the edited version compared to the real version but after putting them together and watching them there wasn't enough difference between them for anyone to really tell the difference. Instead, I decided to use some live performance footage I had from my client project and make a very basic/ old style of a music video which basically just consists of live performance footage. such as in the first ever music video "Travelin' man" by Ricky Nelson:

Client Project - Documentary Proposal

I completed my proposal in the past few days and and prepared my presentation. There were a few changes during the writing of the proposal as we had originally planned on making the documentary based on the man behind the music but after having meetings with him we realised that he didn't feel comfortable talking about his life. So we changed it so that it was based on his life in music which probably suits his personality better.

Here is my half of the Proposal Presentation Chase and I gave:
