When you think of traditional video storytelling, there are lots of rules and best practices that are in effect. Whether it be 16×9, 4×3 or what have you, the video frame creates a boundary for the viewer, a finite space for storytelling in video form.

Let’s just hope they don’t look away from the action and miss plot points, which is a real possibility.
