Olympic National Park is temporarily closed as Washington, the US, and the world work to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus. We filmed this series in early January and are currently at home practicing social distancing. We hope you and your community of friends and family are staying healthy as we work to #flattenthecurve.

@davidhorrigan3274 3 года назад

Great series! I found your videos while doing research for a 7 min talk at work, on any topic I want, and I picked the Siletzia & Olympic Mtns story because it is as cool as any geology story. It's a perfect story for Seattle residents because we can see the Olympics from the street, yet pretty much no one has heard of Siltzia. Thanks for the great presentations!

While there was some interesting facts, it felt forced to have so much time focused on the car throughout the video. And, while there were some cool shots, it didn't feel like any of the material got better justice by having the video of you all there. If anything, the science felt a bit lost in all the car shots. I get that because of travel expenses, you all needed a sponsor and getting to go in person was really awesome for those making the video. But, for us viewers, I think we would have had a higher quality science video without the travel that required such a heavy-handed sponsorship.

@mal2ksc 4 года назад

Car commercials are nowhere near as insidious as fast/junk food commercials, particularly high-sugar breakfast cereals. You only buy a car if you need one, or have that much money burning a hole in your pocket, and it's easier with a single big-ticket item to throw away all the baggage you've picked and let something like Consumer Reports tell you what's best for your particular use case. Also, used cars are plentiful if you are willing to trade prestige for cash in your pocket, so you don't even have to choose solely from what's being made right now. That said, I also don't want a seven and a half minute car commercial masquerading as SciShow. Had it been 30 seconds about the car and 7 minutes of SciShow, I'd have been fine with it.

@felixmervamee7834 4 года назад

I feel the same, but at the same time I don't blame them. If sponsoring from a car manufacturer means you can afford content you might not ever get to make otherwise, it's a gamble on whether the quality or intent of that content is good enough to offset the "selling out" or "compromising" from that sponsor. Is it worth promoting a major cause of modern pollution to possibly get more people interested and curious in science? I would be tempted to say yes, but it's not a simple call to make.

@octopus44445 4 года назад

Yeah I don't doubt that it was a significant sponsorship, and if these occasionally existing is what it takes for the good parts of scishow to exist, then that's better than no scishow. But it made the actual content of this video hard to pay attention to and seemed completely unnecessary considering all the important visuals were the usual infographics and stock-looking footage, anyway. I think it bothers me more than anything else that is not only a blatant commercial, but in particular a commercial talking up a large gas powered vehicle while not talking about the downside to large vehicle in a way that feels totally contrary the brand of scishow.

Was expecting information about Mt. Olympus, got a commercial for the Outback. I love Subaru as much as the next person, but good lord, this makes me worry that SciShow is going the way of the History channel. I get it, you have to pay the bills, but the obviousness of this advertisement makes me concerned for the validity of your information as time goes forward. Please don't let money dictate how you present information.

@christiangibson1867 4 года назад

Eh. As long as it's super obvious like this, I'm reluctantly ok with this stuff once in a blue moon. More covert advertising is where it starts to be a problem.

@OtakuUnitedStudio 4 года назад

They run on time whether they've got 1 passenger, a full load, or none. So that the one on the other side of the river has somewhere to dock when they come across. I think I saw another car starting to pull behind them before they changed angles anyway, and weren't showing other cars due to privacy protection.

@@OtakuUnitedStudio They are never empty and WSF don't cross rivers. And you do not need a ferry to get to the Olympic Peninsula. Nor, do you need a Subaru to drive on a dirt road....

@OtakuUnitedStudio 4 года назад

@@jdwelborn Ok, cross the sound then. But I've been on ferries before; they don't tend to have just one ship at each crossing because it's inefficient. They tend to leave at the same time because there's really only mooring for one ship, and there are probably people who want to come back across from the other side. Maybe it works differently there, though. And while they may not specifically need a Subaru to drive on a dirt road, they were probably required to say they did by Subaru when they promised to fund the channel. Car manufacturers tend to require fairly aggressive product placement. I don't know exactly WHY they chose to allow Subaru to sponsor them, but I can almost guarantee the ham-handedness of it was a contractual requirement.

@BonaparteBardithion 4 года назад

@@jdwelborn You don't need a ferry to get to the peninsula, but if you're going from the Seattle area (SeaTac if they flew in) it's a lot faster than driving around the sound. Same for anywhere but the south and far west regions.

I'm a fan of SciShow, and I understand the need for sponsors. However, the Content to Ad ratio is way too low. This was a car commercial with a few interesting facts, not a science show with a car sponsor. I hope you'll be able to find less intrusive ways of getting sponsorship. I like your content and I want you to make a living at it. I just don't want to watch an 8 minute car commercial.
