i think about lando's editing style so much despite the fact that idt he edits videos anymore afaik

i was going to put this in the tags but it kept ticking me off that i was continously hitting the character limit so its here now \o/

tbh the main reason i'm so endeared to lando's editing style (read: his editing style from ~5 yrs ago that i have been referring and will continue to refer to as his editing style even if it isn't a current one) is that i go "Oh i've 100% made that Exact same editing choice to make that Exact same joke before." eg: there's a specific lando log from 6yrs ago i saw recently bc it appeared before me on my yt home page &. god. man i am hopelessly endeared. for i too would do the master chef intro interlaid w/ hard cut clips of me failing to cook

another eg: ok maybe i shouldn't admit that i've watched the 2019 rookie of the year video way too much specifically just to giggle at lando's edited video but uh. yeah. heart emoji. in my mind there's a lot to dissect between the default title card + background music that immediately starts off the video and the pink sparkle w/ default cursive font on all the transition cards as well as the explosions + airhorns + self referencing. between these two examples there's a lot of snappiness made w/ all the hard cuts. the editing is amateur but from personal experience it's not easy to time everything properly so there's obviously not a lack of thought either, and it didn't rly hit enough w/ alex and george but it hit for me plenty and this is what counts. it's a bit short and the humor probably doesn't hit the same for people who haven't watched like ten mil videos fuckin sue me tho (dont) i liked it

at the end of the day it's less about the editing, more about the insight it gives into lando. but fuck it i'm not a psychologist i'm here to giggle. and i did. tldr i think people with wit and humor are hot, this is my thesis forever
