Have we ever had a discussion of how terrible modern camera work is?

[concise]

My recent breaks must have been too long, but this has been bothering me for the longest.

2nd different raw matches for my point

Why does the camera have to change every 3 seconds? This is one of the more annoying aspects of modern wrestling. Along with the quick zoom in and zoom out for most strikes, or if not instant camera change. For all the talk of great production values, camera work has taken a major back seat and is one area where there's been a major downgrade.

ADD camera work


Imagine how different this match would be shot in 2012.

I always catch the wrestlers not connecting with there moves. Like when cena does the five knuckle shuffle. He had never connects, he just hit the matt

Oh yeah, it's been a major complaint of mine for a while. In all forms of visual media, let some shots fukking breathe and let me see what's happening.

Though someone mentioned that they think they do it to cover up misses and protect the workers more, especially with better cameras and HD exposing missed shots more and more. Never thought of it from that angle, so if that's true, I can understand to a degree.

Still sucks though.

Wwe camera is so bad. Always cutting in the middle of moves. Too many close ups




I still be watching though
