I think I ended up only recording, like, 20% of the cases that I actually did just-- and not because I didn't try, but just I lost a lot of these, uh, videos, or they weren't good enough to actually learn anything from.

You talk to any surgeon who's tried to film any cases, and they say the exact same thing.
24:46
They say, "How do you ensure the high quality? How do you get these angles?" Um, yeah, we've run into the exact same thing.

And so, like you said, minimally invasive ones are much easier because you already have one camera there.
25:00
The, the one inside the patient is already being recorded, and you can add that right in.
25:05
But what we like to do is at least have three or four camera angles on our best videos, and this is gonna be one camera mounted on a tripod for a panorama of the entire scene.
25:17
We have usually one GoPro on the surgeon's head and on the outside of their mask then we also clip, um, a mic.
