About a strange phenomenon in EEVA Pro
Hello dear friends and administrators!
For some time I have observed a strange phenomenon that I can’t interpret.
Distinguished colleagues, who are at the forefront of our profession and whose creativity, I believe, we all admired, have resigned their pro accounts and have settled on some less visible positions in order to present their work.
I respect their decision and the freedom of choice, of course, but can’t understand the reasons for this voluntary derating.
Since the phenomenon is noticeable enough and such a topic has not been discussed I get the impression that it is only I who is not aware of the reasons for these actions.
Therefore I would be very grateful if you share your opinion and reveal the reasons for this strange phenomenon.
I send you my best wishes for health and inspiration!
Victor Popov


Здравствуйте уважаемые коллеги и администраторы сайта!
С некоторого времени я наблюдаю странное явление, которое не могу объяснить.
Выдающиеся коллеги , чье творчество, я верю, радовало нас всех, начали отказываться от премиум аккаунтов, выбирая показывать свою работу с задних позиций.
Конечно, я уважаю их решение и их свободу выбора, но не могу объяснить причины такого добровольного “деклассирования“.
Поскольку явление достаточно видно, в то время как соответствующая тема не обсужадалсь, у меня складывается впечатление, что только я не в курсе причин такого поведения.
Таким образом, я был бы очень благодарен, если вы поделитесь своим мнением, и укажете на причины этого странного явления.
Я поздравляю вас и желаю вам здоровья и вдохновения!

    Bonjour Victor
    I just read to you, and I meet you on the content. I am also one of those who will not renew their subscription. Why ?
    • I like the politeness. Each time I wrote to the management of EEVA, I never had an answer.
    • EEVA is not very “open mind”. EEVA is not very “tolerant”. EEVA does not accept an another way of film writing. For EEVA, a Wedding film without slider, dolly, steadycam, drone, slow motion, etc. is not a “good" film. Who knows Ozu, Depardon, Bresson, Penn, Tarr, etc. as directors at EEVA ? Most of the video directors here only copy the American video directors. Where is the Slavonic spirit ?
    I have the right to not like zoom, panoramic, slow motion, direction, pose, Etc. I only like wide shots or close shots. I like shots which gives time to time. I do not have to impose a rhythm. My readers take time to look at what they want inside a shot.
    Today we have a real image dictatorship with a frenzied consumption of images. Who knows how to realize a movie shot upper to 3 seconds ?
    For 22 years, I filmed and i film Events in Belgium, China, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Morocco, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, United States… Who cares at EEVA. On May 21st, I will be in Kansas City. Nobody cares at EEVA because I am not “Show Off”…
    Here, everything is staged. No spontaneity. Everything is to “Copy Pas". The same movie Saturday after Saturday. Who knows to realize a film without pose ? I do. I never asked, in 22 years, to someone to pose for me. I only like the reality of an event. A Wedding is not Hollywood…
    If I have a “certain" success for 22 years, it is because I propose something else than it everybody makes. The important is not the pencil. The important is the writing.
    My name is Pier-Yves Menkhoff and I make Pier-Yves Menkhoff’s films…
    Cheers.

    I have my own reason. When I discovered EEVA, it was like a close interest club. I visited this site every time, and every time I found something exciting for me. I visited EEVA like a muse, for watching something new, something incredible. And I supported my Pro account to feel a part of this community. Not for orders, you know)). But one time something happened with EEVA. It began to appear many and many new users and it became harder and harder to find something interesting among the tons of material that is loaded on each day. Even at popular video page. And now it not so interesting to being part of this community, I can not be proud of my participation in EEVA like it was a couple years ago.
    I hope in the future something will change again, and EEVA become again the same interesting and great as before.
