My top ten gripes about YouTube (and indeed many other amateur) videos:
1. Photographer stands about 100m away from the action and doesn't use the zoom 2. Camera pans away to shoot the people who threw the girl in the water rather than the girl herself 3. Clip ends the moment she hits the water 4. Clip starts the moment she hits the water 5. The photographer (usually a female) is screeching all the while at the top of her voice, which is picked up by the camera microphone 6. Everything is shakey and blurred 7. An onlooker is allowed to get in the way at the critical moment 8. Photographer says "Oh my God!" about 20 times in a 30 second period 9. Film is shot sideways so you have to rotate your head or the monitor through ninety degrees 10. Poor picture quality
Still I shouldn't complain, because at least they are candid shots and 1 in 10 is usually worthwhile. |

It seems that YouTube is a consistent disappointment when it comes to candid wetlook. If there is a 1 minute video, 55 seconds is the person getting carried to the water to be thrown in and 5 seconds in the water. Then - it's cut off. No good and long shots of the chick coming out and seeing her clinging clothes in some nice shots. Instead, it's almost always cut off. In addition, 50% of the videos are really crappy quality - shakey, blurry - and then there are the ones where the camera goes sideways - what's up with that?
I'm not saying I don't look at them - just that for the number that are out there that there are very few of any decent quality. I guess it's like candid wetlook pictures in that you have to see 20 to get one or two that are really outstanding. I just think in the YouTube world it's more like 100 to 1 when it comes to candid videos.
Good news - it can only improve!
Just voicing my views ...
