So if I were to theoretically say that I had a CSV filled with hundreds of hours of flight data and I used that, google flights and some other sources to make a detailed itinerary on how to visit every country with an airport exclusively by airplane, how would I best turn that into a video that wasn't just an elongated boring list?
don't elongate the list. just show the travel path geographically. if there are any moves that seem interesting to you, focus on those, and then speed up again through the 'boring' ones. which probably aren't boring if they are put all together. for example, if 12 moves go in an S pattern, don't focus on every indivisual move. focus on the S pattern. if 1 move takes 16 hours, focus on that one. etc. First thing to do is take a look at the itinerary and see what your thoughts are. the most important things to talk about, will probably be noticeable right away.
