Walt Disney's MultiPlane Camera (1957) [video]
Old instructional videos so much more informative than today’s. They’re so simple. Clear narration, simple animations, music is appropriate and minimal. They don’t overload our senses in the way modern videography does. It seems to me that everything today is optimized for the highest cognitive load - sort of similar to the “loudness war” in music, but for videos. Popular videos on YT are optimized for clicks and likes and subscribes.<p>For example, compare Mythbusters first season vs the last. Another example is “The secret life of Machines”; amazing BBC series on how things work.<p>I love old videography so much. I could watch highly technical instructional videos like this all day without fatigue. Such a great pleasure. Thank for sharing this!
