  1. I couldn’t watch the whole thing.  The frames change too frequently for my eyes to feel comfortable.  It especially bothers me when it jumps just a few seconds ahead in the same event or activity.  I feel like I’m watching it with a strobe light on.

    1. I think it’s a trendy editing style, to cut so quickly. I see it most often in music videos and I dislike it. You want to see something for a little bit longer, and then, “BAM”, it’s taken away from you.

  2. I think it’s a technically good video. Who cares? The event looks amazingly fun. I want one here every Sunday.

    1. The State Street event will be September 8, and we* are planning an Open Streets event on Sunday, September 16.
      * I am a member of the Wicker Park-Bucktown SSA transportation committee and huge proponent of it.
