Simon's feedback from rough cut

Fiver Matt/Tara/Tim
Live footage of The Fiver Very good, great intro, like the build up of band/tech/crowds
What the requirements are for getting in Doesn't make clear that you need some footage or experience first
What you get if your band is accepted Clearly sets out both financial offer and opportunities to work with pro sound and lighting people
How to apply Provides info
It must look contemporary Looks modern
Fast Retains excitement
Appealing to the 14 – 17 age group Good interview with younger band
Supply all the relevant information Yes
General comments If young band could be brightened up that would be good.
Really clear, good pace, like (love!) the intro
Sticks clearly to brief, well done

General Feedback
Don't use the junction/fiver.myspace address, it is no longer live!
All promos need to use our logo and NOT stetch it in any way.
Please use Helvetica as the font with no additional formating (ie bold, shadow etc)
The following logos MUST appear in the promo: The Junctions, The Arts Council, CRaM, Long Road, CRC, Parkside Federation, QB Learning Outside the Classroom, Skillset
All promos should include some advice on getting noticed, for example 'good photos' of them gigging, consider testomonials, 'action' photos

I think this feedback is alright, because it says what he does and doesn't like about our video. Unfortunately, he didn't really tell us to make any massive changes and appears to quite like it how it is. This is good because it means we have made a product that he is happy with, but it also means he hasn't given us anywhere he particularly wants us to improve. We are going to have to rely on the feedback from the Bournemouth people to give us areas to improve.
