DO NOT TOUCH!

I spent thousands of $$$$ on my equipment, there is no way i would leave my equipment in someone else party so they can play with it. Not happening! Sorry!

Do your thing! Great stuff!

I loved the idea of the subjects taking their own pics at a party.It could be an addition to any other event. You keep doing your thing and don't let the haters keep you from sharing your ideas.

Are you kidding me?!?!

I thought the purpose of these videos was to present ideas to help us be more creative in our photography. I don't need to see a million dollar production, just new ways to think about photography. This video did just that! More please!

Too many critics not enough educators

People get on and bash people for how the video was done. Where is the one you made and posted???? Seriously this is getting old this is why I won't get on any photography forums everybody thinks they know better than the next. Yet they produce subpar work and no results please save the negativity. I enjoyed the video and thank people who take the time to do this for the community this wasn't a presentation or some business project. So I understand why it came off like that. As long as you get the concept and principle it's all that matters. Shut up and keep shooting!!!!!!

Good But Painful Video

Great idea but completely subpar presentation for an outfit like Adorama. As others have noted, I'm sure he's a fantastic photographer but I quit the video more than halfway through due to his poor presentation. More "umm" and tangents rather than useful information. I'll read a DIY elsewhere ... and hope this guy sticks to being behind -- not in front -- of a camera.

Informative and fun

Love the concept. I'm sure your a great photographer but take some time to learn how to speak without the use of "Umm" so much. You will sound much more professional if u do. Thank u,
