According to my google search a lot of this is basically whatever bits fall from the upper ocean, things like pieces of plants and other things that fell. Every deep sea video I see has anywhere from a small amount to a “wow I’m really surprised we can even see the creature they’re filming in this” amount. Why does it appear so well on camera and why does there appear to be so much of it?

To produce an image at great depths, you need to illuminate your target with lights. These lights are usually mounted on the same machine that carries the camera. The light bounces off all the sediment and detritus in front of the camera which makes these stand out against the dark background.
