I spent a whole month editing this. I personally like it. It was fulfilling once I put down the finishing touches and watch it.

Just a suggestion for viewing: don't blink :)

Hope you enjoy

A segment of a whole "clap" sequence would take sometimes close to 2 hours to edit. That's equivalent to about 2 or 3 seconds. It was complex and time consuming. I wanted to do a whole full video to about 4 minutes of the tune - but realized It would take me MONTHS to do that, with school and whatnot. Plus it works better as a short video.
 
I like the way it is cut - only issue for me was theres no subject or common theme that ties it all visually apart from the style of the edit.

It's kind of there.. just happens so fast that you don't get the time to think about it. But I'm not of course saying that it has a grand theme there.

though it's basically a short sequence of life.

cars keys locked
kids get pulled over
sport
recreation

etc. But I'll be honest I didn't start out with a theme when I made it - was going for just a concept, but then I picked out certain clips I wanted to use, etc.
