Hi flea

Good work!!
Just my 2 cents: While walkouts can be good, you'll notice that most interviews posted here focus on the seated portions,
just like the news network clips focus on couch or "leg chair" footage.
You could start a clip with walkouts, and then chop out all the closeups, shots of the hosts, etc.
By the time you do that, plus take out commercials, you'll have plenty of the guest, but you've whittled it down to a
manageable size. A lot of talkshow interviews edited down with that approach tend to result in clips about 1 to 3 minutes long.
Interesting. Good suggestion. What I was worried about initially is that people might want to see (hear) the entire interview, but most of the feedback I'm getting suggests that they don't care. I have a huge backlog of clips, but only the first few minutes were recorded. From now on I'll get the entire segments.
(So far, the edited version seems to be about 30% more popular than the full segment.)
Also, I don't get E! in HD, so no Chelsea caps, unfortunately.
And I guess I should post talk show clips into the established thread? I'd kind of prefer to have authority to edit the subject line when I update.
