We asked the class what they thought of our idea, and they give us some feedback around a month ago, but as our ideas have developed we have not spoken to the class again. I decided that I would ask a couple of people from our target audience what they thought of our idea, and whether it matched the conventions of the genre that we were aiming for.
" The idea seems very good but it may be difficult to do as you've left yourself a lot of work filming in different locations, and with plenty of actors. It definitely fits the conventions of the genre you're aiming at, and your storyline really matches the song which you're doing. Also I feel that your website and CD cover are very much in the style that The Futureheads aim for, which makes them look like they could actually be theirs"
"Even though the song you've chosen is not your stereotypical cheery Futureheads song you've still managed to keep your storyline, website and CD cover interesting and not be boring, like a deep lyrical song could encourage. I think that the house robbery idea is a lot better than your original hitman idea as I feel it'll be easier, and more realistic to do."
"I really like the locations that you've chosen to film in, and how you've spent time and effort securing the right locations which really fit your storyline. [Eg; Office] Also I like that you've got a lot going on in the storyline, and I feel that even though you'll have a lot of work to do, if you pull it off it could be a very good music video which fits the conventions of the Indie/Alternative genre."
It's always good to hear what other people have to say about your idea, because as a group you may think it's brilliant but outsiders may think different. This has helped us know that we're on the right track, and we know we have a lot of work to do, but we'll get it done and hopefully pull off a very good music video.
