Okay, cool! I think I did okay in mine (anyone want to check, haha); I'll probably try and do some more once I'm back in my own place and not my parents' house.
I'll have to check it out later. There's also a bunch of people here who'd be willing to preview a video via email too

This! It should not be a review in and of itself. Tell me about stuff I can not 'see' in the review. Show me the size and how loud it is.

To those using their webcam, please adjust the camera so that we're not staring straight up your nose.

You should see how many "false starts" I end up with. I hate splicing clips together, so I'll shoot it a bunch of times until I can get it all in one take most of the time.

I have to admit, there was a recent review of lets say a product we have recently been discussing, and when I saw that it was 6+ minutes, I actually had to watch it to see wtf could be said for that long.

I love vids for a real life size look, and the sound is another one I look for, how easy the controls are to use, if its rechargable a demo of how that hooks together helps too. Some of them have tricky slots.

Another thing I find myself doing is watching myself on the comp screen instead of looking into the camera. I have been getting a lot better with my videos. Honestly I liked the older version of WMM because it had funner, easier stuff to add.

I went through this vid stage where I just had to jazz them up all awesome... I like some of what I did but I got disappointed a lot when no one seemed to care (or i thought they didnt anyway) after all the hard work I put into them.

You will learn as you go, and experiment to find your own style. Try not to repeat others' styles, because it just won't work. I learned that one the hard way too. If you have ever seen my cat oh nine tails vid... lol

Hi everyone I'm just dropping by. I was wontering if one could request 2 buyout assignments at the same time, in the same cart. I know if you already have one shipped you can't request another. But what about doing 2 at the same time, before checking out?

'umm' is how I talk anyway. I know folks don't like it but I will never edit them out. It just would not umm be me, eh?

I love it when someone's cat shows up in a video review. I imagine it saying "Hai Hooman."

How do people feel about video reviews where everything is written on screen (i.e. no voice-over)?

Absolutely! As long as they're in the same order, you can do multiples (up to 5 i think?)

You can request multiple buyout assignments at one time, you just have to finish them all before you can request more.
