Interesting things to ask, to be sure. But why all the cuts? I mean, I'm sure they had to edit out the usual number of "ummm" and "ahhhh", and "wait, wait!" phrases. But the director had at least 3 cameras on him, from different angles, and kept cutting between a tight closeup, and three-quarters profiles from both left and right.<p>Why? Is this sort of thing done just to prove you're not filming it on your Droid, that you've got the resources to have 3 cameraa, 3 photographers, and you can edit it all together? Because I'm not too sure that the editing added much to this one.
