Pro tip: the screen area is the same if it’s filmed in portrait and you hold the phone normally. In portrait you lose the sides but in landscape you lose the top and bottom. The only benefit to landscape is that it works better for computers, which doesn’t apply to the masses anymore
but my face was designed for widescreen?
portrait mode is for people with no appreciation of cinematography, they just want to gawp at someone's face. They should go live in a zoo or something.
Lmao “designed for wide screen” as though eyes don’t focus on one point.
Filming a random event in life is not cinematography, and it makes far more sense for someone using a phone to film in the aspect that people hold their phones in, especially if the majority of the viewers will be using their phones.
Just accept the fact that you’re in the minority as a desktop user and don’t complain about the disadvantages that come with that, given that you’re the one choosing to browse on desktop
I'm looking at my desk now, I have ~180deg horizontal vision and about 130deg vertical vision, sounds like widescreen to me?

filming is telling a story, therefore it should be done using the most realistic format - landscape. And filming a UFO definitely deserves a bit more attention than this duffer was able to manage
it's called portrait for a reason, it's just for faces, it's only ever used by heathens, because they have nothing important to say other than grinning at each other whilst wearing cat ears....
