1955, directed by David Lean
This and “The Muppet Christmas Carol” were my two longest videos, each clocking in at nearly 18 minutes. To summarize the work of David Lean, I had to create a montage, which meant watching all of his (very long) movies and clipping out about 30 seconds from each that would convey the story and be visually interesting. Outside of my Eurovision presentations, it was the most editing and paring down (going from 12.5 hours of footage down to two minutes) I’ve ever done. I still probably should have trimmed it further. I had more fun making a montage of the different recordings of the movie’s theme song.
