  • This is a VIDEO GAME. Lean forward, pay attention, and be prepared to click a choice or skip forward when you're told.
    This is a beta--it's a proof-of-concept designed to replace more boring quizzes as a way to allow people learning photography to practice important photography skills when hands-on practice isn't an option. Let me know if you find it useful and how I can improve it.

    Rightfully earned yourself a new sub here, good sir and ma'am!

    Awesome video guys, being a gamer and a photographer, this one really really cracked me up!!! excellent information overall too. keep up the great work.

  • @george.brandon
    @george.brandon 9 лет назад +19

    Yeah, this is cool! I support more of these.
    To fix the obvious answer problem, just do the wrong answers second sometimes (saying "this first answer looks good but let's see how the other option would go...)

    Wonderful for this old beginner… An absolutely ingenious approach. I'm a retired college professor and it just beginning in photography at the age of 60. Very exciting world and I want to applaud you for this unique approach and for the work required to produce it. Bravo. Here's hoping the old adage about the old dog isn't true (Smile). I may not become an expert but I sure am having fun trying. My wife of 39 years who is as inexperienced as I am has joined me in this wonderful adventure. She is not only photographing she is being my willing model, at least, most of the time. I enjoy recapturing the beauty of her smile. Thank you for helping me do it. Well done.

  • @natern
    @natern 9 лет назад +1

    Very cheesy and amusing, loved it. All it's missing is the doom-style UI with tony's face getting more distressed and bloody with each wrong answer. ;) I appreciate the planning that went into this to cover common problems that can be easily missed, especially the flash sync limit. Great work gang!

  • @bebotivo
    @bebotivo 9 лет назад +5

    This is a brilliant idea and it works really well. I enjoyed selecting the wrong options and getting told off by Chelsea.

    Tony & Chelsea, Great Job! Great way of teaching, loved it and more importantly, learn t some more things as well :-). Thank You for doing this video. The audio and video game way to present is great, giving the sounds for correct and incorrect answers was fun. Unique, well done.

    @theodore1228 8 лет назад

    Look at you guys utilizing gamification methodology and showing off all Justin's video editing skills like an old school video game. Very well done. I am impressed. Great job not only showing the golden path but also demonstrating errors in the first person. 👍😉

    This 5 year old video was the perfect quiz to lock in stuff I thought I knew but was slightly unconfident. Turns out I DO know what to do!!
    Obviously thanks to y’all! I watch so much from this amazing channel. 🖤

  • @MichaelJohnsenOslo
    @MichaelJohnsenOslo 9 лет назад +1

    Great concept! It fails somewhat in that the correct answer is always the right one/the time mark furthest into the video, but all in all a very cool video, I'd love to see more! Also love that the options doesn't take you to another video, but simply skips around this one :D

    @NWTrailBum 9 лет назад +1

    Pro tip. When you get to the three crocodile pit that doesn't have a vine to swing across, instead of trying to quickly jump from one croc to the next when their mouths are closed, stand about where their eye is and you won't die when they open their mouth, thus allowing you to take your time jumping from one crocodile to the next.

  • @AndiBlair1492
    @AndiBlair1492 9 лет назад +1

    @arvidkuhnle6266 9 лет назад

    I like the real world approach to learning. As a visual & hands-on (tactile or kinesthetic) learner this approach to learning with immediate feedback is awesome. Instead of getting lost in the textbooks or fast forwarding or rewinding I can focus on what is important to learn and do. Nice.

    Proof of Concept: excellent, engaging and informative. Good (& necessary) to have the comparisons of the different photographs for the 'right' and 'wrong' choices. It was fun! Lots of potential for this concept - go for it!

  • @Sergio.jiujitsu
    @Sergio.jiujitsu 9 лет назад +1

    its great and really fun! but the only problem i see is you have to switch the correct answer sometimes to be the 1st one, if not its so obvious. but cool anyways!
