Does anyone here think that if you're making a video and things such as the hand you're not using is showing or maybe your head is in the shot, that it takes away from the combo itself? I think it does, but that's just me, I bet other people have different opinions. Of course if their hand is in the shot the exception would be if they're using both of their hands in the combo.
Discuss.

I don't think it distracts from the spinning, I just think it looks ugly. :/

Depends. If you have a noticeable pen, they'd pay attention to the spinning of your pen, rather than the shot of your other hand. Buhh overall, I doubt anyone pays attention to it. As long as it doesn't block the pen spinning view.

unless you need it as a prop, keep your background as clean as possible. any pro will tell you that.

It will distract the viewer for less than a second, but then you might miss your moves if you spin fast.

Well...sometimes when you film you have to have another part of your body...depending on the position...
well...as long as the background doesn't have something moving...i'm fine

I find that if you have your head or somethign other than your hand and your arm in the shot it is very distracting
And whenever I see two hands in a shot I think that the other hand will be used, and get highly disappointed when it is not. -

yea, having the heads move in front of the camera is like wtf
but i think some stuff is ok..
bonkura had his mouse and stuff showing in his WT video, i actually thought it looked better like that -

i find pens in the background that arn't being spun are distracting

i hate sounding like a kam fanatic [sorry kam] but his superhanz vodeo was probably the best set up video i've seen. you can see that he's actually there, but it doesn't distract you

i think it takes away from the spinning when the camera is far away from the hand thats spinning
i like a close up so i can see the tricks being done. imo -

i prefer clean background like a lot of the pros
key3, kuzu, seven, s777, x1213, minwoo, coulomb etc
but i think one or two specific items are cool like
kUzu's doll? thingy? those things alot of jeb spinners have
and
i find minwoo's hat thingy.....forgot what u call them...very interesting
i like it -

As far as desks go, neat desks are probably the best.
But I like how GZSakuraz has little decorations like stuffed kitties and Scott Shaputis has his ivory Buddha.
Neat deask, nice decorations=make combo like 30% better.

i agree. little decorations are always good but big things like keyboards piss me off.

When I film I tend to clear my desk, or at least the part of it shown... I also like to add my clock in the background, dunno why though lol. otherwise it feels empty a bit.
