That would vary hugely. A lot of my stuff is more about engineering situations rather than doing tricks, and I could be spending many hours/days investigating before I start thinking about what to put in a movie and how to structure it. And when I eventually do start recording, there's usually a whole lot of playing involved, to try and get the best footage I can.

With this movie, obviously it does relate to a trick (which I spent a ton of time on), but these clips were just some fun things which happened, so this was like a relatively easy bonus movie for me. No hard work aside from the editing.
