I think we've all been in a position where someone has a hobby that we're trying to capture. But how do you capture it all without loosing the audience? Fine editing, great use of cutaways and simple transitions. Also a great example of why a longer format is required sometimes.
Particularly I like the middle of the video where he's describing setting up the sculpture in the museum. Obviously all the producer had were archived stills, but that didn't slow them down. Again simple and quick use of the photos (w/ some whimsical music) and the story continues.
I agree. There were some obvious break points that would have made great second or third stories. At the same I was never bored in it's current longer form.
I'm always curious as to that magic number when it comes to length. 3, 5, 7, 10? Too long.... too short.... Likewise I'm always interested to see a piece that proves the exception.
In short, watch this piece from Make Magazine.
