A scene from the Aaron Sorkin TV series "The News Room," which I edited into a visual gag. The original scene is from season 5 episode 1, where Thomas Sadoski's character is on an airplane, and he has just told its pilots about the death of Osama bin Laden. In the original scene, Sadoski then looks wistfully back and forth at his colleagues, sitting behind him in the airplane cabin seats, who smile back at him. In my edit, he looks repeatedly back and forth between them -- multiple more times than he did originally -- and the speed of his movement, along with the reaction shots of his colleagues, increases each time, to the point that it becomes a ridiculous blur.
