YAY!!!! YATTA!!! My Summary DVD finally arrived and I just finished watching it just now. I love love love yama-chan's photocard that came with the first press edition ^_^
After watching the DVD, my first thought was Ehhhhh??? I was kinda lost since I also have the 2010 Summary DVD version and the two versions are soo different. The 2010 one have a circus feel to it and more of the JUMP member's up close shots of their facial expressions while performing. It makes the audience feel more intimate.
However the 2011 version have mostly far off shots that you cannot clearly see the member's expressions. I was really disappointed with the editor and cameraman. Especially yama-chan's performance of Hitomi no Screen, the camera angle was always long off shots for most part of the performance that I could not see the dance and his facial expressions clearly.
Not to say I did not enjoy the DVD, but I would rather call it a concert instead of Summary. Other than the camera angles, I really have no complaints on the DVD. On the whole I am quite happy I bought it. Since attending one of JUMP's shows live is really gonna be difficult for me, money and time wise, I will have to rely on watching DVDs to see my favorite group perform ^_^
hey! say! jump
