Thanks for the input

I think he's talking about how the camera was always moving around and zooming in too much. It got better later on, but for the first bit literally every die roll felt like EXTREME CLOSE UP TIME.

That, or he may have been annoyed by the guy cutting in, but he was asking good questions that a beginner would have, which is what the video seemed to be for, beginners who had never played before.

Keeping the camera still should be top priority. The shaky zooms ins/camera work is distracting.

Unless you are going to invest in a steadycam buy a tripod: Set it up and use it.

If you plan on doing these regularly consider some using multiple cameras/shots and some editing software for some post production.

Plan out shots and do test video so you can see what works and what doesnt in regards to zooming, shakiness, angles, etc. bad camera work fatigues viewers and works against you...

The shaky handheld mtv stuff gets old quickly.

Nice DV runthroughs, I wanna try them out myself, perhaps I will soon

I enjoyed it and didn't find the camerwork that bad. Good job. This would be great for beginners.

Thanks for the input guys, we are trying to do something a little different then other battle reports out there and that is show all the action, I personally am not a fan of still pictures or not showing dice rolls and turn by turn reports, We have taken the camera moving issue and will try and keep it steady a bit more but as you all can probably understand we can get quite excited some times

Cheers
