long-form
Forty kilometres of nothing, filmed properly
A two-day walk with no summit and no drama, cut so the quiet holds for twenty-four minutes.
Long Grass sent nine hours of walking footage and one rule: no music under the long shots.
The channel’s walks used to run forty minutes and lose half their audience by the tenth. We kept every long shot that earned its length and cut the ones that only proved the distance. Sound carries the transitions: wind, boots, a stove lighting.
Average view duration went from 7 to 13 minutes on the first upload in the new format.
