Default Making Repair Videos

.I appreciate Repair Videos, but there are many ways to improve them. Here is my take, as follows:

1. Don't attempt a video unless you can steady the camera. I get seasick many times with jumping cameras.

2. Show the overall view of where the work will take place. Car front?, car rear?, engine?, underneath?, which side of car.

3. No. 2 comment also applies to localized work. Removing a screw up-close does not help unless we know where it is on the car.

4. When you say "here is the part" in a maze of other parts, please use a 'pointer' to identify the exact location.

5. Use enough lighting to thoroughly illuminate the working area.

6. Identify a removed part by holding it in your hand. I have spent much time with various videos to see what an ECU looks like.

7. Watch your hands obscuring the work in progress.

8. Don't waste time by telling us about your life or other cars you have or have owned. Get down to the business at hand.
