Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) announced that he would not drop out of the New York City mayoral race this week. On Tuesday, however, he dropped a new video on Threads with no commentary, showing him jumping a man's car. Cuomo is shown with a young man of color whose car appears to have broken down...
And who the fuck actually records video in landscape mode?! Like in reality it’s always portrait mode.
edit I’m not saying portrait is better. I hardly ever use my phones cameras. But most videos on the internet from the past 10 years are portrait mode.
Almost always landscape here. I MAKE THE EFFORT, DAMMIT 🤣
Honestly I fully disagree on the 10 year mark. I’d say about 6 years ago the normal response to a portrait mode video was “what the heck is wrong with you, turn your phone sideways, only complete newbies shoot vertical video”, our monitors are landscape, our TVs are landscape.
However, then covid hit, and tiktok became the popular video platform… and everything reversed.
That’s kind of my point, if they were trying to fein authenticity, they failed by shooting in landscape.
I dunno, people who understand how to film and take photographs?
