Untold Stories: Feedback

Fortunately, we were on schedule and when the time came for displaying rough cuts, we had a good amount of work done editing-wise. This was a good thing because it will allow for better feedback. Due to our initial aim of creating interesting pieces, we weren’t sure whether we succeeded in that area or not, because the feedback was more negative than positive. However, we could use that to improve our project. For example, the advice of adding typography and statistics was helpful. Furthermore, decreasing the talking-head shots were useful in creating a more visual piece. And, adding more pauses to make room for reflection was crucial. Luckily, the feedback did not call for structural changes, so we were positive that we could improve the documentaries in the week to come. It’s worthy to mention that the use of feedback is regular in our group, we set deadlines for ourselves to share our work and provide comments. This way we got to make sure that the parts complement each other well, but not too well to an extent they’re using the same shots and imagery.
