Artefact 4 - Interactive 'Red Button' What to Do?

I had gone through all these options but still was not sure exactly how i would make this into an artefact..After thinking if there was anything i could make to test or somehow of seing if people really like, i couldnt think of anything other than a questionaire.

So i went ahead and created a questionaire trying to get as much info out of the people as possible and so most of the questions were giving qualitative answers.

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.
