Just a short video of a small room I put finished cases in. From these dimensions I should get about three and a half times these

Fantastic Josh. Oh how I envy those of you that have basements. When we lived in the midwest we always had basements but when we moved south it's rare to see a basement as the water table is high and if you build a basement it becomes a swimming pool.

you have an awesome space to display your models, I applaud you for how clean your space is and the absence of dust.

Very nice, indeed!  Having a basement is definitely an advantage.  They don't exist in California and like Bob Jackman, I miss having one. 

I hope you don't mind a constructive critique, though.  These are some things I learned when doing videos of my models.  Hopefully, you'll find my suggestions helpful. 

When making a video, it's helpful to hold the phone in the horizontal (or landscape) position as opposed to the vertical (portrait) position.  There are a lot of models you have I missed the first time I watched the video.  They were at the top of the screen which didn't show at first.  Also, pan very slowly.  Panning too fast doesn't enable the viewer to see the models very well.  With some practice, I think you'll find your videos to be easier to watch.

Josh, I agree with EVERY comment made about your video, including Marlowe's. "Go slower" when filming; I too had to learn that lesson (filming my 1:1 cars). Folks really want to see your models.  Love how neat & tidy your displays are. Great work!

@marlowe-or-marty Hey Marlow, great advise! This was more of an experiment, I was able to post this right from my computer. I was hurried because of the 60 second time limit and the constraints of the room  makes it too tight to do a shot to see an entire stack. The basement is about 6 and a half feet wider then this small room. Work is finally under control again, been a wild summer. I'll have more time now, if I do another video I will follow your advise.
