Feedback from Simon Bates

Simon first wrote general points of what he wanted included in all the promo videos

  • Live footage of The Fiver 
  • What the requirements are for getting in 
  • What you get if your band is accepted
  • How to apply 
  • It must look contemporary 
  • Appealing to the 14 – 17 age group 
  • Supply all the relevant information 



Simon then wrote these points referring specifically to our first rough cut promo. Simon said;

  • Good use of the bands, drops me straight into the evening
  • Does not show entry requirements
  • Mentions financial incentives but not the opportunities of working on large stage with sound and techs - would be great to include this in the final cut
  • Left me slightly confused
  • Looks modern
  • Great editing and speed
  • Yes but does not include too much of the younger band(s)
  • Unsure the ticker tape is clear enough, moves too quickly, unclear



These are all points we were all to aware of ourselves and if anything, i feel Simon has been too soft on us.
