What I Have Learned From My Audience Feedback
What I learnt was that my minor tasks appealed to the audience and worked well with the music I was promoting. My explosive themed DVD cover emphasised the explosive nature of rock music. My advert shared conventions with the genre aswell. Becuase artists rarely ever publish live tours on DVD, it was hard for me to see what they looked like as i've said. I had to do it by just judging on my own. The audience members I asked said that I had captured it all well.
Main and Ancillary Effectiveness
I took this to heart when working on my resubmission. My DVD advert was kept the same as I believed it to be very effective, as you would see a DVD advert in a magazine.
Even though it looks very plain I think of it as a teaser trailer for a film, only showing what you need to see. I wasn't sure if I should put down some tour dates but then I thought that this would only be the announcement. Then the viewers would look out for updates on the band wesite on myspace.

Keeping Media Conventions
These conventions make these media products very successful. I used fast pace action to go on with a fast paced music track and I kept the trend of rock videos not always having a solid plot.
The aimed audience is not only for people who would view the video, but for people who would listen to the music. So I aimed it at early teens through to mid 20's. I did this by playing safe and not actually giving any characters personality, that way the characters are only objects emphasising the music.
If televisions were to show the video, it would be played on MTV rocks or Kerrang! because those are the channels that show this kind of music. I attracted this audience by making the video very easy to follow and having easy listening mainstream rock music with no overly technical musical aspects.
Finalising and Audience Feedback
I also posted my video on youtube for the public to view and comment, this is a great way for my video to be seen, through web 2.0 and the peer to peer viewing sites. I also thought of uploading my video to facebook, but my feedback may be biased as only my friends could comment on it.
