Yes, we are "too old" and totally removed from the demographic that Celebrity is trying to attract. The ZOOM, ZOOM, ZOOM on the homepage is truly awful - makes me dizzy.🤢 UGH! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordylad Posted April 12 #4 Share Posted April 12 but a valid point.....wonder if it was health checked before release because I am sure it will give people with sensitivity issues some problems because of the Zoom effect and I'm sure strobe lighting has also been used 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted April 12 #5 Share Posted April 12 There are also tv shows , that camera jumps all of the place we cannot not watch It just like people who post those 3D pictures or post videos were the person moves the camera to fast 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerunner Posted April 12 #6 Share Posted April 12 Never noticed the main page as I am on it for if anything 2 secs. either going to my account for future cruises or just doing some research on cruises I was thinking of. I stopped and looked this time but its a waste of time to be on the main page as there is nothing there and wont make that mistake again, Click find a cruise or scroll down where the info I need is or just go to my account.

Rare hcat Posted April 12 #7 Share Posted April 12 I took a look..It does seem quite amateurish and very unsteady. I don't think it will garner NEW cruisers if that' s the best they have. Not even Close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PTC DAWG Posted April 12 #8 Share Posted April 12 (edited) It got your attention, enough said..once you scroll down, the video is gone from sight. A BC powder may help your condition… See what I did there? Edited April 12 by PTC DAWG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always amazed that so many youtubers make such motion sickness inducing videos too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is normal user behaviour on websites which is probably why the video is there as they aren't expecting people to sit and look at the second for a long time.

miched Posted April 12 #12 Share Posted April 12 Never noticed it. I had to go to the website to see what this thread was referring to. Sometimes when there is too much it is like you can’t see the forest for the trees. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mom says Posted April 12 #14 Share Posted April 12 I had to go to the website to see what the fuss was about too. I thought perhaps the page was limited to just the video. But nope; I was able to scroll or click right past it. So I'm not sure why anyone would stay with it if it bothered them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was designed for people with short attention spans. This is like listening to commercials on the radio that change every 15 seconds. I’m going to update my profile pic since some of you seem to like the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise Gopher Posted April 13 #25 Share Posted April 13 Well their new branding seems to be working. The zoom zoom fast photos and video is all part of their new brand guidelines that launched earlier this week. https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Celebrity/General_Info/NCC/NCC_2024_Brand_Guidelines.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
