Audience research and plans for this weekend

Now that we are at the stage where we are halfway through the filming and editing process, we decided to get in some of our actors and target audience members to get some feedback. Most people were saying that the footage "looked good and sleek" and had "an interesting narrative". But for some people who knew Ben who plays the abusive partner within the video couldn't picture him seriously in this role, other however who didn't know him said that his acting was convincing and scary therefore we feel sorry for the girl in the piece who is the singer.
So all seems to be going according to plan. Apart from a few narrative shots that need to be re-filmed hopefully this weekend. We will be moving on now to film the performance elements of our music video which I am sure will turn out just as well as the narrative. Only a minute left to fill however with the performance and due to this being an importqant genre characteristic for a rock music video mroe footage from the narrative might have to be deleted. A lesson learned here is that shots need to change angles quickly and last a few seconds for the music videos, long shots from one point borethe audience and take up too much time.
