Questionnaire

After the completion of our media product we asked a group of ten of our peers about their opinions of our opening sequence.

7 out of 10 said they really enjoyed it whereas 3 people said they did not enjoy it as it was not a genre they were interested in. This reaction was particularly interesting as the 3 people who said they would not enjoy it were males.

6 out of 10 said that they would be interested in watching it as a real film plot.

6 out of 10 found our editing effective and found the music was appropriate for our genre.

Overall the feedback we obtained was positive and really helped us to gain another perspective on our media product.

Inspiration for the editing of our opening sequence

We watched many music clips and opening sequences of a variety of different movies to find inspiration and help us for the editing of our filming. We especially loved this music video by Selena Gomez and found the editing original and interesting. Here are a few screen shots of a few shots we tried to replicate in our opening sequence.

Inspirations for the soundtrack for our film

Lady Gaga - Fashion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msoL-34x5JA

David Guetta ft Rihanna - Who's That Chick http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOdmf4N5aPE&feature=related

At first we chose these two songs as a potential soundtrack for our movie. The reason we chose these two particular tracks is because they both represent exactly what our film represents. Both songs have an uptempo beat which is ideal for the start of the film as we want the song to represent the character's excitement and pleasure that she gains through shopping. The lyrics match the theme too. Furthermore both songs are sung by two very independent artists which also reflects the protagonist in our movie.
However we are not allowed to use commercial songs in our movie as it is copyright so we are either going to create an original track in Garage Band or find an existing track from the internet which we are permitted to share.
