Director's commentary feedback

RUN

Good  and considerate understanding of the technologies used in production of the video, for example in terms of the types of camera’s used and the quality available.

There are evident links between creative decision making and use of technology on both productions of the video using professional digital cameras and in the post production editing process – in discussion of match of action, lip syncing and graphic matching’.  This is sustained and thorough and accurate in discussion of the branded themes of creativity, authenticity and ‘hippie’ theme of the video

The commentary shows a discrete awareness of the use of new media technology and uses discriminating examples really well for example in FCP: particularly to selection and construction of narrative, editing techniques, such as cross cutting and the pacing used.   This knowledge and understanding is evident in the use of colour saturation and adjustments.

Commentary attempts to evaluate online technologies, the use of creativity which the digital technologies enabled.

Excellent command of terminology and well presented.  There is sustained justified decision making links between the technologies used the product and audience reception in terms of the creativity that the group used..

There is some sound understanding here and it is concise work.  I feel you need to be more exacting with your understanding of CD digipak conventions and more reflective on CD cover designs.  Perhaps you would like to revise this post.

This is soundwork - there are evident clear accounts of your planning and research for your music video production day after half term
There are one or two ways to develop the blog.  First to begin using a wider range of blogging tools - there are lots of well presented images, but use of Flickr or powerpoint will increase the creativity that is shown on your blog. 

Second the reflective comments that you make need to be developed further with  key media concepts and theoretical ideas;  for example, link the planning to star image,  or how set design and lighting link to mise en scene and/ or what model's of lighting you are using in relation to your set - key, fill, directional, discuss the intensity and colour and what you are trying to represent about your artist.

Try to add more detaile to your blogs
Begin to make the move beynd description - link ideas to real media, ie Star image/ Dyer

Feedback

Excellent concepts blogged.  These are  detailed and through and you have been creative with your blogs, I particularly like the use of art/technology.  You have a secure knowledge and understanding of who you want your artist to be signed to; perhaps you could link this further by stressing the advantages that your artist has signed to the particular record label.  Your clearly identify your target audience and have profiled them well.  Excellent research into CD covers and you have a wide range of examples, and this would be developed further if you can link the real product to how it will influence your own designs.

Feedback

You had produced some concise work with your blog entries.  In order to develop the detail to your work you need to revise your class notes and add some detail to the comments you make, for example, look at the work on Dyer and Stars, Negus and the video as a promotional tool.  You have been creative with and to an extent visually dynamic with your blogging – there is a clear sense of brand identity.

You have produced proficient work with your blog.  There is a good understanding of what the  task demby providing more annotated points.
