Evaluation

When looking back at the final video I am pleased with what was completed. My client wanted a simple video that put across his story and showed some examples of his work. We did consider adding prices to these paintings but decided that it would look a bit too much like an advert. All the paintings shown in the video are available for purchase; we ensured this. The music used was created by the client for his exhibition footage so he decided that it could now become his regular theme. Whilst the editing took some time due to technical difficulties, my client waited patiently because he did not have a fixed deadline. The technical difficulties included a failed transfer of footage that meant editing was at a standstill with some footage that could not be reconnected in Final Cut. This was the only problem that occured during this project. We did spend a little bit more planned time on filming due to the client being unwell at the begining of production. This did mean we had less editing time and then less time to solve the editing problem. If I was to make another video for this client I would ensure that I used all of the same colour schemes, fonts, logos and music to make the business' theme reccur. I liked working with this client because they had a flexible deadline and they were also flexible on the stucture of the video. But I do understand that other clients will have a strict deadline and will want a very specific video. I was lucky enough to find a laid back client that meant I could use a bit of creativity when making their video.
