A technical observation: it seems you shot this in 16:9 (probably in HD). However, in post, you letterboxed it into a 4:3, which, once uploaded to YouTube, ended up pillarboxed back to 16:9, leaving a thick black frame around the entire image. Also, it would have been nicer if it were at least 480p; this way, the letter- and pillarboxing reduced the actual pixel count below the YouTube's lowest quality setting of 240p...

hey thanks for your comment on your observation. It was actually shot on HD 16:9 i think. the problem was in Premiere pro the playback was so choppy even after rendering. so i did not render to HD maybe my computer hardware is not "strong" enough for HD? any suggestions?
