Rough Cut for my Music video

This is the rough cut of my music video . The next thing ill be doing is getting audience feedback from a facebook group or from a focus group.


 After uploading the rough cut , i decided to conduct a focus group to get feedback on my video .
I came up with five questions to ask and the question are open ended , which gives room for opinion from the group.
1. Do you think the narrative is appropriate?
2. What genre do you think it is ?
3. What can i change in term of editing ?
4. What do you like about the video?
5. Anything in general that i can change ?


Feedback summary 
1. do you think the narrative is appropriate
They all thought the narrative was appropriate because they thought it reflected what they saw on screen but they weren't sure about what the actual storyline for the narrative was. I decided i would make the narrative more clear by selecting different clips that better convey the meaning of the song . My narrative doesn't have a particular storyline it's just showing a happy couple in love doing happy things and i really want to make that clear in the video.

2. What genre do you think it is ?
They were able to identify that it was RnB.

3. What can i change in term of editing .
they thought that some clips should be more consistent specially the piano scene , which was only seen in the opening. they didn't think the video flowed well. These are all things that i can change  and the piano scenes could integrate more.

4.what do you like about the video
some scenes matched really well . It represented music videos that are current and are in the charts rights now.

5. Anything in general that i can change ?
Speed of editing is too slow .
lip synching is a bit of.
different angles would help.
change the lighting .
