Until Vine and later tiktok, basically the whole Internet was in the horizontal format and vertical videos would play with huge black boxes on the left and right and in turn you can’t really make out the details of the videos as well because they were so small on those screens. Today’s internet is very different and has things actually designed for vertical videos so complaining about it makes no sense anymore.
It’s often hard to adapt already existing horizontal videos into vertical videos, but the current high prevalence of vertical video platforms create incentive to create better editing tricks. I personally am often surprised how they accommodate for these situations now a days

That probably means they should’ve zoomed out, regaldless of orientation
To create even bigger empty spaces of ground and sky?
Once you’ve got everything you can just crop to where the action is happening later, as well as chose a different aspect ratio if need be

Not really. Most phones can film in 4k and most services compress it to absolute shit anyway nowadays. You’re not losing much but cropping first

Except it does. It is such a waste of space to film like that. If anything film a square
We all know the best way to film is in the shape of a circle
