This video took so much work, but it was so worth it! I don't know how the views will turn out because you never really know, but this video is great

It was almost 2 hours of original unedited footage. For context, most of my 10-20 minute videos have about 45 minutes of original unedited footage. I was able to edit down that circa 2 hours down to the 37 minutes video you see here. I watched it at normal speed in my editor (when looking for last checks and small editing tweaks) and despite being almost 40 minutes, the video felt more like 20 to me. 

I've also got a community post and chess.com forum thread shared photos related to this video.
