Blog Feedback

In response to the feedback that we had received after our blog had been shown to other members of the class was that of positive response. We had been told that we had included many in depth analyses; we had managed to convey that of a good amount of research which had had been undertaken into each genre in order to consider which one to choose. Positive feedback was also given for our mood board, as it was said to have had a good use of pictures, which was again able to convey to a viewer the mood of our project, which was to be a jazzy, 1930’s and 'swinging’ mood. Our Ident was also praised, as it seemed appealing to the viewer and interesting due to the animation created by our group.
However, we also received negative feedback. This feedback was given in order for our group to realize areas in which we needed to improve on our blog. We were told that we had too much text and needed more visual aids e.g. pictures and videos as they felt that too much text made the blog more of a task to read and that visual sources would make it more interesting. We were also told that the picture of our mood board needed to be slightly smaller so to see all the pictures. Feedback also helped us recognize that we were missing vital information e.g. a shot list, location list and were missing the information of more specific on props.
We felt as though it was essential to receive feedback as it thoroughly helped us understand what areas were wrong with our blog and planning and what needed be done in order to rectify this. This enabled us to create a stronger blog and help us do a great amount of planning for our practical, which means an overall more achievable blog and hopefully a successful practical due to detailed planning and research.
In comparison to our previous thriller blogs, our opening sequence blogs seem to be easier to comprehend, a lot more organised, aesthetically pleasing and plentiful with information. We feel as though already, our blogs seem to be far greater than our thriller blogs due to having more experience and knowing that we needed to keep updates of our blogs regular.
