What do you do when you feel the need to artistically compromise your work in order to appeal to viewers, and avoid inconveniencing them? Easy! Create two versions of your work to ensure that neither stands as the definitive one!
I kid. It was an easy decision to split this up because I knew the exact scenes that were giving the video such a long run-time, and they could be cut without confusion. Not only that, but once I was sure that only my friends would end up watching it, I felt comfortable unmuting most of the footage. This was not my original intention, and you can tell by how often my sentences get cut off in this version.
Would you believe the peanut scene starting at 2:51 is a reference to a culture festival a month earlier where I ate a peanut butter cupcake and had a horrible allergic reaction? Well there’s coincidentally footage of that exact cupcake prior to the incident in that scene! You’d never know that unless you were there at the time!
