It's all in The EDITING!!!

Okay, so I was freeking out because I thought that I didn't have all the shots in the can - turns out I did, they were - on the whole - framed just how I 'boarded them and every short sequence I edited I was grinning from ear-to-ear because it was all coming off.

Then - SPOIIIINNNNNNNNGGGG! - a big spanner flew in and gummed up the works!

The Spidey shot - a jokey reference to the upside down kiss from Spiderman (2002) - totally fukkked up because the brick wall background made it obvious that I didn't really hang Bananaman upside down by digitally flipping him! A good Puppeteer should never let you see the strings and I instantly heard the words ''RE-SHOOT!!!'' like how Missy Elliot says ''RE-MIX!!!''

I now edited it like Bananaman was tripped over instead of hung but it felt phoney to me. I was already planning a definative cut in my head that would be slightly longer and have ALL the jokes that I originally intended.

But I didn't want to be a crybaby about it - I wanted to make the first version still be fun even though it wasn't a full vision.

The editing was done and now it was time for the MUSIC!!!
