Odd (to me) photo orientation choice up there, so I’ll throw this one out:

  • I vary my orientation, depending on my subject and what I want to include in the frame

  • I vary my orientation for other reasons or no reason at all

  • I (almost) always take my photos in one orientation only

Here’s a controversial one: Cell Phone video orientation.

  • Horizontal - Vertical video is the scourge of the devil. Moving visual media is traditionally shown on horizontal screens, so all video should be recorded horizontally! Besides, that’s more naturally how we see the world.
  • Vertical - It’s 2021! Get with the times, we’re living in the TikTok generation. Much video is consumed and recorded on mobile devices or tablets, which are naturally held vertically, so there’s nothing wrong with vertical video, you dinosaurs!
  • I’m cool with either, though have a (slight) preference for horizontal.
  • I’m cool with either, though have a (slight) preference for vertical.
  • Something more nuanced.
