I understand this is NOT going to live up to the quality of the normal WR videos, and I appreciate the format, but come on… it’s as if this is the first take. No offense, but the video’s only a few minutes long, couldn’t you have done another take on it that would have fewer uhh’s and repeats? Hell, just videotape it then dub over your voice.

Keep up the videos, but put just a little more time into it next time, please?

yeah kept my question till the last, how dramatic :)
no seriously, there is a part of the video where it seemed just like that stupid movie “cloverfeild”. all the vibrations and so. so funny, especially that i just watched the movie yesterday.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

As I’m sure is evident by the first three videos, we’re still working out a proper way to compose this series on screen. The trick is going to be getting as much information back to the reader as possible, without getting caught up in the high-production type video we love to share in our magazine. We really do appreciate the constructive criticism though, and your patience in our efforts to bring you what we think will be a really valuable addition to our site.

Rule number one: Have at least one less cup of coffee before filming Ask It video in the morning. That one was totally on me.

Thanks for the help and for tuning in.

Seventy cubic inches of cargo space?

i like this system. some minor problems though but overall it is a smart idea.

Thanks for answering my question. I figured it would come down to personal preference and taste as well.

Thanks.

I don’t mind the low-budget production method - the hand-held camera thing works great for this kind of segment. My one issue is: get someone else to hold the camera, or a tri-pod. Make it a psuedo interview with yourself.

I would appreciate being able to see someone actually getting in and out of the front and back seats (especially since I’m on the taller side too) to get a perspective on its size, ease of entry, etc.

Other than that, I like the new segment. Keep ‘em coming. Showing the ease of use for the folding seats was cool too. Thanks.
