After working on a documentary, I have much more empathy for creative decisions on them, similar to more empathy after working on a consumer application Questions like why didn't this topic/scene get included? Trying to fit *years* of filming into ~90 min is inevitably going to have many scenes cut out, audience testing resulted in confusion / not resonating, didn't add much to storyline, etc Similar to why don't you add this feature? Need to keep the product simple, user feedback resulted in confusion, doesn't move the needle, etc

Empathy for creative decisions in documentaries and consumer applications grows post-work experience. Understanding the need for simplification and relevance in storytelling or product development
