You’re tearing me apart Lisa!!
A lovely find though i doubt it will ever make it into this edit.
I think some of these shots look fantastic, If you had one or two frames of the rupuring, before it cuts to the wide shot for the explosion that would look awesome. But anything more would ruin the timing of the music queue. Its a challenge becuase on one hand, I’d like to see a beautiful shot, on the other, I’d rather keep the thematic 3, 2, 1… Boom! Luckily its not up to me: Adywan, you are our only hope.
