Equally, you could argue reading a recipe in a book takes less than a minute; stretching the same recipe out to five minutes is already pretty leisurely.
If a video maker wants a shot for 'rinse the rice before you boil it' anything over 3 seconds is filler.
It starts with "Guess what's for dinner everyone <cut> shitty mall curry in a jar <cut> [puts bin on table] <cut> he shoots he scores <cut> almost... [intro] What's going on <cut> we're back in the kitchen saying <cut> no to jar sauce [cut to filtered dramatic zoom] neveee <cut>" etc... They should add an epilepsy warning at this point.
Many of these cuts don't actually cut anything, they're just changing the crop to make the video more dynamic. I find it headache inducing. You never have a continuous shot that lasts for more than 5 seconds or so. Everytime he naturally takes a breath while talking he cuts. Every time a shot lasts for more than 5 seconds he changes the crop to make a dramatic zoom on his face or something.
It's a very popular type of editing on Youtube as far as I can tell, but I find it unbearable to watch.
The criticism of simply the frequency of cuts seems weak to me, it's been like that forever with most types of video entertainment content.
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!
The one that always comes to mind is when I'm baking and the instructions say to whip egg whites until soft peaks form. When exactly is it "soft"?! Sure, I know now, but I definitely didn't know back then, and as it turns out a video is a great way to get the point across.
I get that it's effectively the point: you overwhelm your audience without giving them the time to consider switching to a different video, but I find it frankly unpleasant.
