Call it friendly criticism if you will, but the strong suit of video is that it allows you to see things. A verbal explanation of the ATTYs' dynamics arent much better than a written one (to most of us anyways). Which again would beg the question, why video? Why not just a blog entry then?
Would have been nice to see a detailed breakdown w explanation by the designer.
There are several reasons.
- I want people to get to know the designer as well as the product.
- I hate transcribing.
- Video advertising usually pays more.
- My review will focus on how the atomizer works.
The first point is really important to me because I've always been creator-focused in all of the businesses I've covered (games, comics, etc.). A lot of vapers know their mods and atomizers, but don't know the people behind them. A lot of these guys work hard, risking their own money and using a lot of their personal time to try to make a good product. You get a much better
sense of the person on camera than in print. There have been a few cases where mod/atomizer creators have told me that they were recognized in public because of an interview they did with me. I love that.
