Video:
From what I learned from the comments of my past elevator speech, was mainly that I should go into more detail about what exactly my product is. When I made the second video I didn't even think to add much more detail, this is because I got comments from my first video to include less detail. I guess I'm hoping the third video is a good median between the two.
Reflection:
I made the video more of a sales pitch, instead of an advertisement. In my first video it was clear that I didn't describe the service enough, or even how far it's extent reaches.
You are so far the only person I know who set up their video pitch this way! I really like it because it is unique and set apart from the other pitches, so it stays in people's heads more. I like also that you included a before and after for your pitch, and it reminds me of how I explain the problems and solution that my concept covers in my pitches. My recommendation, if more pitches continue in the future, is to set up the camera so that your head and torso are seen. This will let you seem as if you are interacting with the viewers more. Good job on this. Here's my link: http://entintheair.blogspot.com/2016/03/elevator-pitch-no-3.html
ReplyDeleteJames, I really like your creativity here. You went with the problem first. The lame situation of having nothing to do gets all of us! And I didn't have any problem understanding your concept even though this is first time I've commented on your blog so that's good. I'd recommend trying to shorten it a little and be more concise, there was some wordiness that could be eliminated. Also, that ceiling fan is distracting but I know most of us aren't working with professional producers lol. Hope that helps and good luck with the rest of the assignments!
ReplyDeleteHey there James!!
ReplyDeletethank you so much for sharing because I found your idea to be very well written and insightful. You set your video up very well by the way you worded it. I was easily able to relate to this video and how mine was because of the setting to where it was taken, although next time you and I should definitely take it where there is no ceiling fan due to distractions that may come along with it!!! Thanks again for sharing and I hope you get the chance to check out my blog post at: http://alexabernie.blogspot.com/2016/03/elevator-pitch-no-3.html
James,
ReplyDeleteI loved what you did with your pitch, it is by far the most creative and unique one I've seen so far. I agree with Rosie that like this, your pitch is more likely to be lasting. Boredom is probably a common problem for most people that aren't surviving and foraging to live, so I like the concept behind your idea too. I agree with Rusty and Alexa regarding the ceiling fan. Good luck with this idea though, check out my post here:
