Comment Wouldn't feel comfortable supporting with so little information about this. Where was it? What kind of marmot? Geotag ideal, but rough location at least. Given the uploader is in switzerland, maybe we can presume it's an Alpine marmot, but that seems like too big an assumption. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 13:39, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Thanks for adding more information. The colors seem just off, but it's a good video that seems featurable. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 15:37, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

weak oppose I'll start with the positives: 1. Camera on a tripod. One reason user-generated video is so far behind still images in terms of quality at Commons is (imho) that everyone seems to think they can just hand-hold it. 2. Sequence of the shots, starting with a wide environmental shot and getting successively more intimate with every following shot. 3. No audio is better than bad audio.

Here's what I don't like: 1. no audio is a bummer. 2. the last shot is not composed very well with the marmot slowly making its way to the edge of the frame – the concept of en:lead room applies to video as well. I'd just skip that one and end with the one where it's taking a break. 3. colors are off, there seems quite a bit of a magenta cast. --El Grafo (talk) 07:39, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
