I’ve never done that before... but why not? ...

Here's a mix of the video with all the dialogue removed, so you can crack open and enjoy that sweet, sweet sound design.

However, I can try to describe it in sufficiently ~vague~ terms!

Hello,
I started making this correction video as just a bonus joke piece, but AS USUAL I got carried away, made it needlessly elaborate and took a long time.
Now I'm kind of undecided.....

Hi friends,
The new video is NEARLY done, but I have to pause for a quick trip to the Big Apple and frankly, it's all your fault.

The only thing I learned from this process is that Lindsay must have nerves of steel. It’s really hard not to flinch when your eyes are closed and stuff suddenly hits your face.
