I just started trying to count: 5000 frames x 10 minutes of exposure x 5 minutes coating time x 3 minutes development


That's an awful lot of work. I'm happy to see that as I was starting to believe that labor intensive video clips were relegated to the 80's.

Film is the vinyl record of photography.

I think they probably coated a roll of paper and then contact
printed a couple of long strips of film side by side. Still a lot of work though.

P.S. Oops, my internet has come back on and I read the story now. Yes, that is a lot of prints.

Some people don't make it easy for themselves do they. That was great work,even though I didn't like the song particularly, I can apppreciate the art behind it
