Music Video Evaluation

Although we produced a music video I feel that the group members lacked enthusiasm to participate to the best of their ability. For example, lack of punctuality, not having the determination to contribute to the tasks that were being set.

There were many difficulties that we confronted for example, a member of the group not being focused on the task that needed to be done. This was overcome was by carrying on with what needed to be done with more effort and not giving up.

Our music video was narrative, this is used in many current music videos such as Rihanna - We Found Love, Akon - Sorry Blame It On Me, Garry Sandhu - Sahan To Pyariya etc... This enables the viewers to connect the lyrics of the song to the images portrayed in the video.

The audience that have seen the video said that it the length of each shot was too long, this made the video tedious to watch after a while, but it was complimented for first attempts. Other effects could have been added.
