Post-Production Questionnaire Results - Question 11

The eleventh question we asked was 'What key themes have you picked up from the music video?' We asked this question because we wanted to give our music video some perspective and to see if maybe our audience members picked out some deeper meanings that we didn't intend to be portrayed, but are. 

As the chart shows the two most popular answers were obsession and love. This is definitely  shown through the video through the props - post it notes - and through his careful planning to make everything perfect for the date. This shows that we were successful in portraying our narrative. The next most popular answers were distress, unrequited love and hope. I think that we got these answers because of the difference of gender in our audience. Hope, I believe, would have been said in the comments left by females because they would have felt empathy towards the character. Distress is shown through the actions of the character and also through the actions of the dolls. Unrequited love would have been shown through the turning point or when the song/video reached its climax and the girl didn't show up.
Very interesting answers we got were 'let downs' and 'internal conflict'. Let downs is an answer that is very general and therefore this audience member has linked it to broader contexts and situations, showing that this video does not just limit itself to being let down with a date but, deeply, being let down with life. Internal conflict is an interesting answer because this audience member understands the emotional instability of the character and can see the internal conflict portrayed through his actions and indeed through the dolls. 
These answers again show a diverse range of emotions and themes that links to the actions and range of emotions shown by the character. These answers also highlight that we were successful in portraying all the key ideas that we wanted, to our audience.
