Final products

Ancillary Task:

This is my final Music Magazine Advert. I have created 2 versions because I thought that it would be convenient for Korean readers if they could read in their own language and one in English for other magazines.






Ancillary task : 

This is my final  album digi-pack, I only created one as I didn't want my audience to be confused between the English version and the Korean. Therefore, I decided to put Korean translations on the track list instead. This will be convenient for the Korean Audience who are not familiar with the English language.

Music Video:

This is my final edit of my music video. I have follwed the majority of my audiences advice as they know what they want. Therefor I edited it the way they liked to ensure that I am meeting my audience's needs.

Storyline: Mi-Kyong has been engaged to a new man that she doesn't love. She hesitates to put her ring on as she knows that her wedding is right around the corner. She gets up from her previous position and walks inside the living room. But it isn't hers, it's her ex boyfriends. She sees the pictures above the fireplace and notices that he's happy with his new love. She picks up the frame one by one and she tries to re-live the times with him and how that used to be her in those pictures. But instead she's been replaced by someone else. She keeps trying to remember again and again but she can't. She finds herself lost in her own thoughts until she finally wakes up and realizes her reality is upon her and her past relationship is now just a distant memory.

Final draft - Music Video

 
 
This is my final draft of my music video. I have changed all of the requests and individual feedbacks from older drafts as well such as deleting the clip where she walks up the stairs as it's irrelevant and I have also added extra clips on the last third of the video to make up for the missing clips. I will ask a few of my audience for their feedback through social media such as skype, facebook and whatsapp.

After recieveing feedback from my peers I have decided to edit the final once more to decrease the blackness when she closes her eyes in the last quarter as the duration was too long therefore I slowed the speed of the clip where she closes her eyes to fill in the darkness.
This is the re-edited final:

Audience feedback

Over the Christmas half term I was able to show a majority of my target audience my products. I directly gave my blog URL to the majority of my friends and asked for their feed back. I asked for comments on my music video and someone left a comment on my two previous posts.


Twitter feedback:

@anzy :  I like the way you've got a simple story line and you've chosen good actors to star in your music video.

@Steezyahongza : The magazine advert is my favorite product. It stands out from the usual adverts I see.

@MaattLi : All three products are good and I can see they are all linked with each other.


This shows that the majority if not all of my target audience like my product its somethign they expect. My final step into finishing my products will be a final draft which will then lead me into making my final evaluations in different media forms.

Construction of music video: Draft 6


These are a few written feedbacks from a focus group. The majority of them liked the video so far but felt like the "walking" away scene is too long. From what I have learnt, I will need to edit and change a few of the chains of the video.

Changes I've made from the feedback I was given:


This is the first change I have made, I've learnt that the dramatic black pause was too long therefore I made the duration by half a second which now fills the black gap. I also showed down the first half of the frame as it went to quickly. I changed the clip speed to 60% which slowed it down.

From the feedback I received, I learnt that the majority of the audience disliked the walking away scene with the feet. So to tackle this problem, I deleted a few of the feet scenes and added a scene where she's looking at the clock. This now runs for 5 seconds. I also slowed down the duration of the clip where she's crying to decrease the walking away scene.

This was one of the most liked scene which shows a graphic match on the tea cups. However, the audience thought that the clip was too quick and wanted to see it more. To tackle this request, I increased the clips length which shows the rest of the clip to the audience. I have also increased the duration of the 2 images of the boys which shows them for a much longer time.
