   JTEM to All   
   I really like this kid, hate this video   
   29 Jan 26 13:18:08   
   
   From: jtem01@gmail.com   
      
   Well I don't "Hate" this video but it's not good...   
      
   https://youtu.be/j-VdzYNnyNU?si=ilNFF-mnavrOF-l9   
      
   Oh yes, he's got a VERY modern almost "Ambiguous" sexuality   
   thing going, which I can't help but think has to be a big   
   plus on the social media Hellscape. He's 18, which means he's   
   not just a consenting adult in America but 2-years past   
   "Consenting Adult" in the U.K.... two years older than   
   Greta at her peak.   
      
   The video isn't good.   
      
   It just isn't.   
      
   It's too dark. The lighting is awful. The camera work   
   is sloppy. And I get that camera movement is important   
   for what is otherwise a static shot. I get it.   
      
   See:  The old rule used to be 10 shots per minute --   
   one different shot (cut) ever 10 seconds -- but in   
   today's Short Attention Span Theater even that's not   
   enough!   
      
   I think the original Star wars, the first print of   
   the film, had maybe 300 cuts, or under 400 anyway. And   
   the last Bourne Identity flick had well over 2,0000.   
      
   "Things have changed."   
      
   And why I bring this up is because camera movement   
   negatives this need. If the camera is static, you   
   change the view by splicing in more shots -- the more   
   splices, the faster the pace. But if the camera is in   
   motion you are changing the view on the fly!  You don't   
   need to perform any cuts, splice in different shots.   
      
   So the video has lots of camera movement, showing that   
   that they have knowledge of the rules of good film   
   making, but the camera movements are sloppy, proving once   
   again that "Knowledge" is no substitute for talent!   
      
   I. Do. Not. Like. The. Camera. Work.   
      
   I honestly don't.   
      
   I don't see any "Film Making" in the video. I see someone   
   following rules that they read.
