I'm particularly talking about the amateur, youtube clips here. But it doesnt matter whether the clip is meant for wammers or just a comedy effect.

Countless scenes (in my opinion) have been ruined by the presence of screaming in the background, creating instant distortion and instantly rendering the clip unwatchable. I mean why upload something to youtube if you (or a friend) are yelling all the way through?

Does anyone else have any similar annoyances?

overly dark... or cameras that are seriously like 1 mega pixel. Whats the point.

The most irritating are the clips shot using a phone cameras in pour light
pix elated shaky garbage Great if you want to view it on your little phone screen or the back of a postage stamp

I'm only an amateur but at least I shoot in Full 1080 HD

Apologies for the all caps but my message is important: VIDEO ONLY WORKS IN LANDSCAPE MODE. DON'T TURN YOUR CAMERA SIDEWAYS!

My personal "favorite" (seen almost exclusively in non-professional wam videos): camera operator decides to suddenly pull away RIGHT after the pie hit.

White chairs..........

Jet

Mine is when the auto-level feature keeps turning the video on it's side, then sometimes back to normal only to 'correct' the horizon and put everyone back on their side again.

Men in the scene spoil everything. Unless it's simply an arm coming into frame to deliver a pie, men in porn should stay as far behind the camera as possible.

I second men in scenes, with the exception of hosted gameshows...

It completely destroys pay content for me though-masturbation+guy's arm or body coming into the scene=.....hmm...

Feet.
No, really. Feet.

I can't stand when the camera leaves the action and goes to show someone else or something else. Stay on the woman or women please. I don't care about anything but the wamming in question.

Any music that isn't generic is a huge turnoff for me; luckily stuff like 'Girls just want to have Fun', or whatever only turns up on sample clips and not the paid products. I have no idea why, but even when its an artist I enjoy, when it pops up on a pie video, I'm outta there.

For me, if the person in the video isn't having fun then its ruined.

You must always have fun

I'd define spoil as confidently expecting something great and then realizing its not present.

for me thats bare feet. I usually assume it won't be present and wait to see but sometimes it seems like such a no-brainer that I drop my guard, get all excited and then...

but set against that are times when I am not expecting it and its there

If the video makers spoken directions are in the final video he is doing it wrong.

Yeah, me too. I get that there's a lot of cross-pollination between fetishes here, but feet right up in the camera definitely downgrade a video for me.

In a lot of cases with amateur wam the filming isn't very good because people are uploading into YouTube to show proof of something that's happened rather than to satisfy us gunge thirsty wam fans.

For example, a video of a pie fight is usually all over the place because the person filming has got caught up in the pie fight themselves so insead of keeping the camera still at the risk of getting a face full of cream they are too ducking and dodging. Another quite common example is the gunging of a teacher...who is on a stage...and the student/teacher/parent filming is in the distance the other end of the room so we can therefore not even see the person getting gunged let alone the gunge itself

ha, as a new amatuer producer i'm writin all this shit down!

Ah Noise - you must abhor my scenes then as my shoots have my direction all over them. Generally people seem not to mind - frankly I don't have the time or inclination to do it any other away - I am an amateur enthusiast who happens to sell what he shoots to pay for the shoots...

I don't mind hearing other producers either..

I think everyone's covered the main points, but SAUCEBOSS's has to be the funniest. Camera on its side, wtf?! Has anyone actually done that??? lol
