Thanks for the feedback!
re: ROUTES/MAPS TOO FAST: my thinking was that I wanted to slow down and examine the interesting route choices and blitz by the uninteresting ones. If you really wanted to see where I went, even for the "boring" routes-- you could pause the video to check it out. If I slowed down for every single control, I would have a 20 minute video, not an 8 minute video (which is already pushing it).
That said, I could at least add another second or two to the maps. I think that after looking at the same maps for hours, I can look at them and process them faster than a fresh viewer.
re: USE GPS/ANIMATE THE MAP: I agree, this would be ideal, but unfortunately, I do not have a GPS or animation software. I am currently winging it by editing photos in Photoshop.. so including still photos is all I can really do at the moment.
re: INSTRUCTIONAL vs RECAP: these are really race recaps of my actual 'competitive' runs, and I try to sprinkle in some educational retrospective after the fact. They are created for those already acquainted with orienteering...
...@gruver: (who says that for learning, they are "useless"), these videos are rated for Beginner-Intermediates-- for people already acquainted with orienteering. I also have videos rated for true Novices, for "learning":
For example, this video on CONTROLS:
