HillTop Farm Trailer - After audience feedback



Question 3- AUDIENCE FEEDBACK
This is our changed video after receiving audience feeback, we made the improvements in which the audience told us, even tho we recieved criticisum we took it postitive as they were trying to help us improve our work and we would benefit from it.One of the main suggestions was to change the our soundtrack of "Shake it out" to the intrumental version as then the sound of Florences distinctive voice made it hard for the diaogue of the characters to be heard in some places of the trailer. We made another change of adding a title card at the start of the trailer saying " Regrets collect like out freinds" this worked as it was the opening line of the song aswell as it had the comparison of "Sambuca" finding out she is pregnant. The reason why we chose this song was because people will be able to reconise the song as it is in the charts aswell so they will understand the title card at the beginning.
The audience feedback also pointed out that the title cards should match the beats of the music as a couple were slightly off beat so this was an improvement, the title cards matching the beat of the music is a commen factor of soap trailers and we hope we have achived this.

The audience feedback has made me and Emma realise that somethings work and somethings dont like trial and error, we just had to see what worked.

OUTLOOK ON IMPORVEMENTS
Unfortunatly the instrumental version of "Shake it out" didnt work. So we hope to change it back in when we next edit out video, the reason why we thought this didnt work as it made the video have a dull feel and the music didnt seem to cause emotion and the massive swell of notes and Florences voice towards the end causes tension. Aswell Some of the lyrics relate to what is actually happening in the trailer creating the narrative such as "Regrets collect like old friends" at the beginning when sambuca finds out she is pregnant. we have to be careful whilst editing the song to make the chorus come in earlier as there might be sudden cuts in the song.
