<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 9776175, member: 79705"]Hahaaa I do think most people are very nervous in front of a camera, especially center stage with a minimum crew of maybe 8-10? people staring at them from behind camera and lighting set-up. Not even counting any audience. I've worked with a lot of first-time background actors who have actually signed up to be on camera, aren't even the focus, and are veryyy nervous. The camera just messes a lot of people up. I've seen multiple people forget how to <b>walk</b> normally. It's bizarre.</p><p><br /></p><p>Additionally, it can be overwhelming and your brain just....doesn't remember how to function or what was said lol. Big money being discussed is probably a bit of a jolt out of that!</p><p><br /></p><p>I do agree that it annoys me when people don't care about the history of the items or the free expertise they're receiving. It probably shouldn't, because we've all sold a thing or thousand here, but I think history is awesome and want others to as well. I had to take a break from antique R eddit because it was a constant stream of value demands with no community contribution, thanks, or interest in those objects. I'm not even opposed to value discussion, but damn y'all can do an eBay search! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> And give something back to people who helped you! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie80" alt=":shifty:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
