What is your preferred clip duration?

In times of tiktok, YouTube shorts, insta and stuff, the amount of free of charge clips has increased significantly.

However, the majority of these clips have quite a short length. I wonder about our preferences as gwm-viewer community at this site.

Personally, I prefer clips with at least 1 min duration. But in general, the longer the better for me, and that is what I voted for.

I really want to watch the muscles and everything in longer motion, strain, endurance,…!

And rather short clips, especially those around max 15 sec just annoy me. Regularly, I do not even consider they have been worth my mouseclick and my time.

What do you guys think?

I don't mind short-ish clips, I just hate jump cuts.

I'd much rather have a 20 second clip with no jump cuts than a minute clip that has a jump cut every 3 seconds.

If it’s a promotional clip for a video that’s for sale somewhere else, then 30 seconds is fine if it’s something of substance and not just the first 30 seconds of the full thing.

Longer is better it's always annoying having to switch to a new video every few seconds. I spend more time clicking and loading the video than watching them.

the only downside of longer videos is that I sometimes can't choose what to watch. like there was a YouTube channel uploading long good videos. I watched 1 then the next day I wanted to watch another one but it was deleted.

Personally, I prefer clips with at least 1 min duration. But in general, the longer the better for me, and that is what I voted for.

I suspect "At least 30 sec" or longer would be preferred by those who interpret your poll to refer to the 1st and 4th of the following categories of vid whereas "not more than 30 sec" seems more likely to be preferred by those who interpret your poll to include the 2nd and 3rd category:

1) Continuous vids (mp4 segments with uninterrupted motion from start to end).

2) Discontinuous vids (separate mp4 segments strung together interrupting continuous motion including highlight reels/jump cuts).

3) Motionless vids (single and multiple jpg and png pics uploaded in mp4, or mp4 frames/stills).

4) Promotional continuous vids with title screens that take up a large or majority portion of the total vid duration.

Will always be prefer long clips. And the longer the better. Take OF for example. For updates, I'd rather see once a week updates where the clip that gets posted is 5 or more mins long rather than daily updates where the clips are like 10 secs long.

This is just about the length. Cutting, discontinues, music, raw sound, perspective, viewing angle, etc. - all not covered by this poll. I think these criteria would all need separate polls.

But as we are just at it: when it comes to my taste, I prefer all footage raw. Both no cuts and no music at all for training vids. Music for posing clips is okay for me, as long as it is underlining the individual charisma of the gwm and the setting she poses in.
