1) Type up your teacher's feedback in full plus a summary of the comments you received from other students in the class. WWW: - Excellent drone shots; high angle - Post production after effects - On screen graphics; Japanese lyrics - Cross-cutting - Opening shot/establishing shot - Whip pan; camera movements - Branding + promotion - Edits - Cinematic zoom out EBI: - Resolution of export - Shorter + tighter - Drawing more distinct - More detailed locations + shots The comments agreed with the WWW; however the most common EBI was the fact that my music video was way too long for the brief. 2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write three WWW bullet points and three EBI bullet points for your work.
