Some Really Impressive Editing

Lasse Gjertsen is a 25-year old Norwegian videographer who created this incredibly creative video.

He doesn’t play either piano or drums. It’s all done in the edits.

Fantastic work.

Gjertsen has been approached by several commercial makers, but he considers advertising ‘below prostitution’.  (Ah, to be 25 again).

Take a look.

*Many thanks to Harry Yuan who turned me on to this.
