Feedback from people:

1. The music was good but you could’ve used a better choice
2. The set stood out so well and grabbed the attention of the audience really well
3. It reminded me of Pingu , maybe you should’ve added a name to the whole thing and called it Pingu from Space as it is a penguin
4. It was imaginative and different
5. The idea was good but you could’ve made it work out better
6. The use of unexpected animals stood out well
7. Work more on the storyline as it would’ve worked so much better if you had like a story to put out to your target audience
8. You could’ve worked more on the ending as I felt like it was too rushed




Feedback from Amy :
Strengths are the sparkling space set, planets and the sound used, which work well to create a space atmosphere. Music is appropriate if a little dark and mysterious. A stronger storyline would definitely have helped this piece, the set worked well and then it felt a little rushed and random. The penguin character could use a little more detail and again storyline, especially in connection with the unicorn, a little too random perhaps! The character movement is fairly smooth, again a little confusing in terms of the action. Ammu has created atmosphere and some fairly creative work.




Feedback from Rob :
The set, music and atmosphere was good especially how it started off in the beginning. It really lets you think imaginatively as it can have a lot of different meanings to it even though it seems strange.









General Feedback and Improvements I can make from the feedback:
I came up with this  idea because I thought it would be something different compared to what everyone else was doing. Doing a theme based on this gave me a lot of ideas on how I can change it around or make it something unusual. Having to make last minute changes also meant I had to make characters up which is how I came up with the idea of the penguin meeting up with an unicorn in space but I later thought I will build that up by changing the penguin into a superhero , adding a cape and a label on him.



I do agree with the feedback given as I felt like I should've spent some more time on it so I could work out a storyline. I also felt like I had to rush into another plan after having to put the spaceman idea to a side after loosing the character. I thought the music and set worked well together because it gave a mysterious feeling where it makes you think about what might happen next. I don't think I should've used the unicorn as that made the whole thing a lot more confusing to understand.  Furthermore , I should've added more shot types so that the audience don't feel like they are staring at the same image for too long  as using various types would've made things a lot more interesting. Next time I should work on changing the music around a bit as I felt like I made the whole thing too mysterious.


I also think adding a name to the beginning of the animation would've made things a lot more effective as it would've given an idea of what to expect before the animation started.
My weakness in this project was not thinking of a proper storyline before having to change the characters as it seemed like it all came out of no where. My strength in this project was building the set and the characters and filming It  even though I had a lot of work on changing
 a lot of ideas around. 'character movement was a little confusing' I think I should've definitely made the movements clear because while I was filming it I did make a few mistakes with the movement for example when I was trying to get the penguin to move around a planet and it didn't fit which meant I had to make it go all the way back and carry on moving it in a different direction which did seem a little confusing and strange after finishing the whole project.


I am glad that people were trying to be imaginative as they could when they watched it because of how mysterious and different it was. I also felt like them being imaginative helped them think about their own storyline about what was taking place. The set turning out better than expected worked really well with everything else and it just made things stand out better to the audience as a lot of people complimented the set more than anything else. I also thought using a music like that helped me create the atmosphere I wanted to create.


The process of this could've been improved even though I did manage to get things done but if I spent more time on this I felt like I could've had enough time to work on it more to make it into a better standard which meant that I would've been able to get better feedback. Getting feedback like this from people also helped me understand how I can change it around next time and the things I should think about while producing it.
