Audience Research for Music Video

Here is our GoogleDocs questionnaire asking questions about music videos. We sent this questionnaire out to everyone in our year group and we also put in on social media. From this we can see what exactly people like and dislike about a similar genre of music to our music video.



We also asked members of our school to answer our questions about music and music videos. This will help us make our music video popular with lots of different audiences.



 Here is a time lapse of us editing the video.

Risk Assessment for Music Video

Treatment Video

Here is our treatment Prezi, which goes along with our video. During this we are explaining what song we have chosen and why, what is the concept of our video, our location, how we intend to represent our characters, what camera shots we are going to use and why, what we want our audience to think of our characters, who our target audience is, what influenced our idea for our video and secondary research we found.



Here is us presenting our treatment.
