As our music video is aimed at a niche audience, we knew that it wouldn't be to everyone's taste or that some people may not even understand the deeper meaning/symbols in the video. Our media teacher suggested showing our video (which is almost finished) to a year 10 group to see their reactions and what they thought of the video. Even though they're not our target audience, it was interesting to hear their opinions which is beneficial to us as we can make some minor changes.
Person 1 - They found the song boring and the video slow pace and that they prefer Pop/R&B.
Person 2 - It's not for our age group.
Person 3 - The part of the song that says "Back in 1991" has the reverse shot of the friends jumping which is quite good.
Person 4 - The video is about two best friends.
Person 5 - The girl lost her friend because some shots shows them together whereas others show the girl by herself.
Person 6 - The friend died because of the shots of her walking into a graveyard.
Person 7 - There was a book of memories.
Person 8 - There is no friend and that she is actually imaginary.
Person 9 - The scrapbook is left in the graveyard, which must mean that she died.
Person 10 - The shadow/silhouette of the guy singing is really good.
