- agreed with Jay@2 - it's called the 'rule of thirds,' I think - you should have the eyes at or near 1/3 down from the top of frame - check out the tv talking heads to verify... and, I gotta say it - isn't that dude "dancing" around the world politically incorrect on a few issues? global travel in airplanes for no reason (emissions), obvious disinterest and even disrespect for cultures by jerking himself around like a frat boy (the people and places don't matter, just the image of himself in them), AND it's not a dance, it's a lame excuse for a dance - if you saw him do that at a party you'd say he were an ass - and that he was finally sponsored to do it?! yeesh - teh internets are LAME if that's good enough for top 5

The camera (iSight) placement looks fine while I'm taping, but crops everything in the editing/saving process. And the mic came with the camera (which was a gift). When I'm wealthy, I will upgrade. Which will never happen.

This particular project was a rush job of sorts, and the computer room in my new house just doesn't lend itself well to webcam work. When I have time, I will test out camera angles and lighting. Which will never happen.

My brother saw this piece on TV at 3:45 this morning.

I still don't agree with calling someting made for national television (a SNL Skit) a "viral video". It was first broadcast to millions of people in a different medium. Seems like a totally different thing....
