Would it have killed you to leave constructive criticism instead of an uninspired one-liner? It's only my second attempt and I have to fight major performance anxiety issues to do anything with a camera.

What? You were serious? Oh...awkward.

Great review, though next time it may be a good idea to review something more worthwhile. It doesn't matter if it's something that might have already been reviewed before. I'm pretty sure most people on this site (including myself) would have much rather appreciated a review of the Storm figure that was in the video.

And you can't possibly have anxiety issues doing things on camera. It took balls to post and claim a review of those crappy figures.

Well the point of this review was that it really wasn't anything special. I mean look at the articulation! But yeah, it took the guts of a god to do this. Twenty-five minutes of setup just to work up the nerve.

I've got a Namor review as well here on the Ark that might be more elaborate/worth it, but at 15 minutes I dunno if you want to clock that in :P

I appreciate you amending your stance. Most people would have gotten downright nasty after that.

To help your nerves maybe try writting a script for your video, start with an introduction;include your name and what you're reviewing, give your a 1-2 minute discussion about the pros,cons and your overall feel or rating for the figure. Then get into the articulation, maybe a final thought , a signature thing or just a simply "until next time". then cut. I know seanlong and shartimusprime do that formula for the most part. also work on having the camera solid and stationary, have your figure standin tall and sturdy perhaps using a base or rotating display. you can be completely off camera if you want minus your hands for the points of articulation display, keep up the good work, the more you do the easier it will get, and maybe you need an aid such as a stiff drink or puff to get over the initial hump. just a thought, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the points! I'll definitely take some of those into consideration.

The entire point of these, really, is to reduce the awkwardness I have during a camera roll (I've done voice acting and narration, which is much easier, and I want to try physical but turn into a mess during it).

Somebody wanna buy me a camerastand/tripod?
