What is a great footage?
The "evaluation" of a given footage always has subjective
elements because depends on the personal perspective and experience of the
person giving the evaluation.
-For people that are looking for the "best shots" great shots are
the ones showing crisp clear details, this kind of footage only can be
taken with objects that are relatively close, spotted with naked eye.
But as almost anything else in life there is a trade-off in everything,
objects that are far away will always look less crisp in any camera system
and they will be almost always beyond naked eye spotting. But these far
away objects are a lot more common than the closest ones and they will show
new details and transformations that are not seen in the closest ones.
- For other people, like myself, the best captures are the ones that
contain more "information" content and usually single captures no
count for that but whole sets of them.
The never ending goal of making connections and learning is what
differentiate a videographer from a researcher.
As a matter of fact already there could be very sharp and open minded
people in this field making connections/discoveries without physically
making observations. In the near future observations will be done with
automatic equipment and the "specialists" will just analyze the
footage taken by machines. Perhaps that
already is happening in some places.
