After finishing our rough cut of our music video, we went around other sixth formers in the school. We told them the main idea for our video and what we planned to do next, and let them know we would edit out some of the bad shots we knew were there. Here is their feedback:
The Questions
1) What do you expect to see in a music video for the song Barbarian?
2) What music videos have stood out for you in the past?
3) What do you think of our main idea?
4) What do you think of our rough cut video?
5) How would you improve how the rough cut was edited?
6) The next part we want to have children re-enacting what you've just seen to show that it was all their imagination. How would you go about filming this?
Matt Heard
1) Vikings and battle scenes, maybe some shots of the band playing at the same time?
2) OK Go's video's are amazing - they are all so unique and interesting, as well as fitting in with the music.
3) I think its a very good idea and if done well could really get you a good grade!
4) It's very well shot and edited, I liked it a lot!
5) I didn't like the turbines in the background, but I do like your idea of them purposely being there to subtly show that what you are watching isn't real. But personally, if I didn't know this fact, I would try and change that.
6) I would fade in from the warrior on the ground to the other kid on the ground, and then have them fight but less dramatic than the actual battle.

1) battling and warriors with people playing the music as well
2) Rammstien - Mein Land, Marilyn Manson - Tainted Love, or Obey The Beard by Psychostick
3) I think its a brilliant idea and fits well with the music
4) I like the slow motion shots and the quick cut editing, I think you've done a brilliant job for a rough cut!
5) There were a couple of shots used more than once that need to be changed, apart from that I couldn't find a flaw!
6) I would have a similar style to what you filmed except have it at a much slower pace, and I would have whoever calls the children in for tea/end of break time turn around and have a sword showing on his back to get the audience to think even more.

1) I would have people fighting and something related to history, with shields and swords etc.
2) Any video by the Gorillaz, OK Go!, and Take On Me by Ah-Ha!
3) It sounds like a very good concept, and the name of the song and the genre of music fit together very well with the idea.
4) I really liked the shot where the axe comes down on the camera, and its a different location to what many media students have chosen to film in.
5) I think you could at a few more fast paced shots to increase the drama of the battle.
6) The shots need to be longer in length so that it is less dramatic than the actual battle.
Josh Field
1) Guitars and bands, maybe a story line involved to keep the audience interested but doesn't always have to be the case.
2) I don't really watch many music videos, but Twenty One Pilots release some good music videos.
3) I think it's a really different and clever idea. Its good that you'll end watching it with a different perspective to how you started watching it.
4) It was a really well shot and well worked video! The actors you brought in were amazing and it fitted well with the genre of the song.
5) There are a few songs that are the same, so I would edit those out. Apart from that its perfect!
6) I would have it in a different location to where you first filmed it, like a school playground or in a garden. Have the children pretend fighting with cardboard and plastic swords to make it like they are really pretending.
