Question 3

 what do you expect in indie genre?

What people thought of our video and how it used the conventions

Our audience feedback was quite expected we thought that certain aspect of It would be different but we were fairly please with what we had gathered. We thought a questionnaire was the best way to get many results from people and they could answer the question in their own time rather than just jumping on them when they were not prepared with a sort of vox pop. We got quite a bit of inspiration from the video above from what a random selection of people thought about the indie genre when we asked them a few question on this genre of music. We thought that asking other what they thought were the main conventions worked well as we could make our promotion video better for everyone and not just what we thought was good.

We were lucky with this response with 50% of the people saying indie this was a good answer or us and it confirmed our decision to do an indie video. We were pleased that we got this result and we did give the questionnaires to people at complete random.

this was an unusual answer to our questionnaire we did not expect this we thought that the majority would go for the urban and pop art vibe, however they did want narrative and so we had both narrative and performance,

This was also not the answer that we were expecting but this question does relate to the 1^st question if they wanted a pop art effect then they would of gone for bright colours to fit in with the conventions of the pop art. We did however use monochrome which are gritty colours and we did use some bright colours as that were the second most popular answer.

we did not expect this answer either we were expecting outside, as we could not use a gig or create one we used the influences of Hall of Fame video and do it in a warehouse, there are also too many restrictions to film in a city and so we had to choose an urban location, this is why we chose a typical house.

We expected these results and we were pleased with the outcome of this answer. We did include this in our promo in the performance clips but not in the narrative as it wouldn’t not have fitted in. This does tie in with last question at a gig there will be lots of people and then it the smallest answer on this question, this is the only problem with doing a questionnaire.

We expected this result and we were very pleased and we included this in both our narrative and performance as we took our influence from Hall of Fame and We Are Young. We went for smart casual as this is what we believe indie to be like.

We expected this result and we have had inspiration from The Script and Hall of Fame Feat William, we were pleased that we could annotate the video and base some aspects of that in our video like the setting of the performance in a warehouse. All in the entire questionnaire went well and we got the responses we expected from people chosen at complete random who were aged between 16-19.
