Sunrise and it’s because I didn’t sleep so I look like shit and have bags under my eyes lol 😂

It's a pretty common trend for vlogs originated by Casey Neistat. It creates a consistent persona and avoids the awkwardness of the eyes searching around. It also allows the vlogger to make sure they stay in frame without the viewer noticing. It significantly increases the connection with the viewer despite the stigma that people "hide" behind lenses.
