Neutral AHA OK --Killarnee (T•R•P) 04:11, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
Comment - OK, the High Line looks like that, but the video is disorientingly fast, and what's with the music cutting out halfway through? I think a somewhat slower video showing a walk the entire length of the High Line, starting with going upstairs and ending with going down the ramp uptown would be better, and they could take a little time to view the flowers, which are beautiful. I consider this video valuable, because it's probably the only one we have that shows this much of the High Line, but it's hard for me to support a feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:32, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
Oppose pretty much per Ikan. --El Grafo (talk) 15:34, 29 January 2020 (UTC)- Oppose yes per ikan. the speed, the sound cutting out, more time looking around, less time focused on the people immediately in front of us. — Rhododendrites talk | 05:35, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm not a fan of that timelapse approach to depicting linear features like roads to begin with; the High Line is as this video demonstrates particularly ill-suited to it since it is designed with foot traffic in mind ... those breaks to stop and smell the flowers are especially jarring. If I were to make something like this, I'd mount the camera on something wheeled that would guarantee a smoother ride, and instead of doing this as a single take (really stressful after a while), cut back and forth between takes of the camera moving forward with the crowd, views to the side (especially of the many notable buildings that can be seen from the HL), and perhaps some still shots of OSM pages so the viewer can get a sense of where the camera is and what it might be looking at and how those this things relate to each other in space.
In addition to the other faults noted by Ikan and Rhododendrites, I'd add that there is no music credit so we have no way of knowing if the music itself is under a free license. Daniel Case (talk) 01:16, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Daniel Case. -- Gyrostat (talk) 13:28, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Too fast movements, chaotic.... -- Karelj (talk) 21:42, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
- Neutral I am neutral on this. Nice and funny idea but the video is too discontinuously -- PantheraLeo1359531 😺 (talk) 18:58, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
