I agree with you in most of your arguments, but for a really good video its far too noisy and of low resolution.
At least filmed with some feeling for good wet-looks. OTOH: There are videos of far better quality where you can see that they were taken by people with no sense for what is good wetlook and how to celebrate it in images. Take the fantastic dunkings from german "Tigerentenclub", where many female teachers from the loosing teams of a school competition are dunked at the end. An absolutely faboulus wetlook occasion - but nearly comletely spoiled by a director who is missing any sense for what makes good "wetlook". You always see many good "befores", the dunking from above, the raising and soaked dripping over the foamy tub from the side, and then: finally, a closeup, but always always from belly button to head shots. No exception! Rarely the wonderful dripping person over all (and only from a distant camera, her pants (mostly nice jeans) or a closeup from anything else. And all this of course in the end of the show in a time span counting seconds. Take a look at the free examples you find at the wambank, and you will know what I mean.
So, the search for really good youtubes continues.... regards waterman |
In reply to Message (45323) Now THIS is a good Youtube!
By Amf - Wed 21/07/10 12:19:06 GMT Website: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4vSVsS-7I0 Two girls excitedly run and jump into a pool in tight jeans and shirts.

Here's why it's good:
The girls are cute, thin, in their 20s maybe, not fat, and not underage They are wearing long pants, not just shorts, which for me does not even qualify as wetlook They are obviously having a great time, and doing it because they WANT to The camera work is nice and steady, and keeps the focus on the girls Though it is night, the lighting is very good There are excellent, long shots of the girls AFTER they come out of the water It's only been viewed 38 times, so you know it's new.
What? You're still not satisfied? Well then, here's part 2. Since it was so much fun, they jump in again, and climb out, in front of a group of onlookers. These girls know how to have fun!

Here's a typical Youtube vid for comparison:

Why it's not good:
Most of the video is BEFORE the girl goes in the water Camera is zoomed in and shaky Though the girl is a good sport, it's not her idea to go in Finally, the video ends RIGHT when the girl is about to come out of the pool, which is so typical, and so maddening. Why??? I mean, you throw someone in the pool fully clothed so they end up all wet, right? Why not capture that part? Sigh.
Oh well. We shouldn't complain. This Youtube phenomenon is really making an amazing new world of wetlook, don't you think? And the quality is getting better all the time as people get cell phones capable of shooting HD video. The future should be interesting.
