The story worth telling
Trying to fit a whole holiday into a minute can turn it into a roll call of landmarks. Follow the day everyone remembers instead: the missed turn, the picnic, the stop nobody planned. Ordinary transitions give the highlights a home.

- One shared discovery or mishap
- The journey back or evening pause
Let the camera run a little before and after each action. Those extra seconds give you room to find a better cut.
