Decision to get some more footage

when we originally thought that our product was finalised we showed it to some of our classmates and some friends from outside the media group. We thought it was important to get the view point of someone who didn't take media studies and someone who was a mainstream media consumer and what they thought of our opening sequence. Both sets of people who saw our product suggested a possibility of some more shots added in or some shots being edited in a different way.

This was beneficial for us because it meant that even though we thought that our product was finalised, the advice we got from other people meant that we needed to get some more footage to make the story-line more clear. We thought that if we listened to what other people and what they thought it would have more appeal to a mass media audience, which would hopefully gain us more marks.

Other people also suggested that we should change the duration of certain shots or add effects or even take effects away, this again was valuable to us because it helped us realise how other people viewed our product and what they thought would make it better. So hopefully by taking this on board and changing our product it will result in a more superior final version.
