As a designer the images dont seem to have a very clear evolution so its difficult to tell why things were changed. It sort of frusterates me to watch this video because, while I respect evolutionary editing and design -- this feels like a lot of versioning for no clear reason.

I'm sure thats not the case -- but its what it FEELS like.

It's a one minute video just sharing some of the discarded designs. There's a reason behind all of it, but showing the reason(s) wasn't the intent of this video.

Then what was the reason for the video? I guess I'm genuinely missing the point.
