The discussion of whether John Podesta is the man in the Fatherhood video has centered on analysis of voice and speech patterns. I have tried to include the URL from this video into this post, but I see it has just been banned from Youtube.
The Fatherhood video is a visually “complicated” piece. The screaming, flashing multicolored lights, the distortion of what appears to be a glass shower door and the brush all add to disorienting the viewer.
I examined the video frame by frame to try to extract more details. The images are posted in the album http://imgur.com/a/BPKXH
The album includes original screen shots and enhanced images.
Early in the video there is a silhouette of a person moving in and out of focus but at 04s there is a clear body profile of what appears to be a thin man that appears to be wearing knee length shorts.
At 27s a hand image is seen with wide spread fingers. The hand is also seen at 28s and appears to show somewhat distorted fingers.
The next three images were from frames at 40s. It is of a hand that is seen from the top (in a handshake position) that turns palm downward. These three frames show a hand with fingers that are not fully extended, but that appear to be positioned with fingers curved downward.
Although these images are individual frames and are only momentary captures it can be definitively said that the man in the video is quite thin. Five hand images were captured, which together appear to show widely spaced finger positioning, distortion, and finger curling.

This is a pretty futile exercise. Given the low quality of this video, the darkness, the video compression, there's not even enough information to enhance. It's basically a Rorschach test.
Perhaps my work monitor is too dark, but I literally seen none of what you are describing if if I copy the image and try to enhance it.
As you note, you can't even be sure of the glass is.

Keep caution trolling, Alefantis. You have been exposed as CTR. Note to all: The fact that known CTR is saying "nothing here" means that "there is something here."
