Somewhere, a DC area video editor is experiencing post traumatic shock syndrome. This in a valiant, almost epic attempt at making that mono toned spoken mess impersonate a speech essentially at gunpoint. Poor guy will never be the same.
Srsly, if you watch his tie in the A camera angles, the stripes wiggle a bit at each “morph” cut. That’s a cut transition tool designed to hide the fact it’s a cut. (Apologies to those aware of this sort of thing)
Could have benefited from some dissolves, some b-roll, some soft focus—or maybe just have shit-canned the whole concept. The old “we’ll fix it in post” will not work when you have no salvageable footage to fix—he really should just give up on-camera work. (I watched about a minute and it felt like at least an hour.)
