SORT THE LIGHTING OUT.

People tell you over and over again that you can't see the effect because of the lighting but you don't listen

I'm sure its a nice effect....If i could see it

Sort it out Mike

Why post it, when all I can see is a totally black screen lol

You've even acknowledged the fact that it's dark - yet you still go ahead and put the video on here for us all to see (or not, in this case !!).

Do you ever check your videos after you've filmed them and thought that it could poss do with being filmed again

I put a vid up aaages ago and I must have filmed it 10 or so times until I was happy with the lighting/angles/noise ... etc

Take a hint - watch your videos after you've filmed them - if you can't see Jack Didly, how do you think that we are supposed to

Mike, do your parents often forget to pay the electricity bill? Seriously, almost every single video you post has lighting problems. I just don't understand why almost all of them are poorly lit. It might be in your best interest to take all the shades off the lamps in your house when you tape, that way we can see the effect.

go to your local diy store or ask your dad he may already have one, you want to get yourself one of thoughs 500watt work lights on a pole, i know they do a version in canada.

...er, since when was that change yours? i didnt know you were that old

It was so slick I couldn't see a thing!

im just confused as to which "new application" was applied to the snap change?

otherwise...it should be entitled

"the snap change"

How can you not realize that posting videos like this is pointless, its so dark you can't see whats going on. There no point apologizing for it being dark, because you shouldn't upload it if its like this.

Its really very simple.

im going to go ahead and say that mikey doesn’t practice his tricks enough before putting them up on youtube so he uses darkness to cover things up. i know darn well all of today’s modern cams have a thing that brightens the picture in a dark setting. hell even my cell phone camera does it. i think he does it on purpose.

just a stab though.

I know moves are meant to be invisible to the spec... but the WHOLE effect!!!
If this is the amount of quality control applied to something you can re-do until it's right, imagine what his live performances are like when there's only one chance!

There must be some pushy parents involved here who are guilty of supplying delusions of grandeur.
