That's the best thing I've ever read on these forums.I think we are concentrating too much on the skill, rather than the performance. When in fact, the performance is the skill.

I wish I saw more of performer's faces and facial expressions and less "floating hands" and/or "my hands in front of my crotch" videos that seem so popular among the video-posting crowd.
One problem not addressed yet is that performing for a camera is a double edged sword. Yes, you can control the angle and perform things that would never work in a live situation but which look phenomenal on video. Yet you also lose the ability to direct the attention of the viewer with your stationary camera setup. Yes you can edit (and oh so many do), but at what price to the effect?
As for gaffs...well, that's a beast whose belly we cut open months ago. But for the price issue, look elsewhere, friends. E's gaffs are not your only option by far.
Also, knowing why you want to use a gaff (ie, knowing what effect you're hoping to achieve) will allow you to narrow your gaff needs. I purchase gaffs when I've been inspired to practice a routine that needs them, not in order to be inspired by the gaff itself.
