General Shutter speed experimentation

I understand all of the basics of shutter speed and how it works, but I've never really tried to experiment and see what the effects would be of increasing it. Usually I just set it to 1/50 and get to work.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHD9Win0I1I - I stumbled across this video. I like the look that it has. It looks really 'crisp'. The video I've been shooting looks a bit more 'misty' for lack of a better word. Would I be correct to assume that that was possibly shot with a higher shutter speed to get that kind of look? And if so, which speed if you had to guess?

It might not be shutter speed that I'm seeing in my stuff though. Just looks ghosty sometimes.

You can tell those guys are still photographers not filmmakers...

Hard to say, but yes, looks like 30P and a faster than 180 degree shutter. I think it looks like garbage personally.
