- This is my submission to the Colbert Report's Edit Challenge. I wanted to make an interview that looks very realistic and authentic, which means I did not take as many liberties as some others have with the creation of sentences made from individual words.
This submission is clean and certainly believable as a real television interview. I have seen some other versions that are very creative out there already, to which I salute you all. I originally edited and submitted this version the day after the original segment aired on the Colbert Report, but didn't want to post it to TH-cam until others had had a fair chance to make their own version without benefit of basing it off others. So I think enough time has passed that it is safe to post mine.
The Assignment here was to re-edit an interview turning Stephen's answers 180 degrees from his original responses and I think this edit does that very well. It is clean, and professional and has the look of a real interview, which was what I wanted to make. There certainly are funnier and more creative entries out there, to which I tip my hat to.

lmao, I liked this one, it was the most believable one I have seen, and the responses are funny!
EXCELLENT, it literally blue my mind, I thought it was real! great job!!!!!!!
It's the magic of Television, my friend!
Holy crap it's so realistic! Wow!
WOW i had no idea you cut this! nice job
I didn't know it was cut until I read it in info! Good job. =)
This shits awesome to me man!! Hell ya man props to you
That was pretty impressive!
thanks for your response!
I had lots of practice cleaning up both Clinton's & GW's interviews when I worked in network news... this interview was a lot more fun. ;^)
Holy crap. I thought this was a real interview.
that was fucking awesome, i didn't even know it was edited until i read the more info thingy
hey!
awesome job.
I know this is way later, but..... I don't suppose you'd have a link to the original footage?
This is really good. 5/5
Thanks for your input, and I appreciate your opinion. In my own defense, all I was going for was a clean edit. I wasn't attempting to make anything unique or a creative piece of comedic television.
There are lots more creative and humorous versions of this assignment out there... and I tip my hat to them all.
When Qwen asks Steven to give his opinion on "President Clinton" -you can't tell me that was predictable and "expected." -well maybe you can, but I would disagree.
cheers!

sorry you did not like it. did you read the description where i specifically mentioned "I wanted to make an interview that looks very realistic and authentic" -sorry if you missed that part.
next time you leave someone a comment, could you be more constructive in your critism? maybe why it is "the worst one yet..." leaving a random "this sucks" comment is a bit rude comming from someone who has not submitted a single video at this posting.
cheers!

HAH! yeah... totally right. though it the answers are turned 360 degrees, maybe they get dizzy. *lol*
good catch, Shasheeka!
cheers!

great job 5 *****
How did you DO that?! :)
Comedy Central changed the link to the original video source. The segment that contains the RAW video that this "Edit" was created from can be found here : on.cc.com/1IR95ip
Originally there was a link to download a video-file, that's been disabled, but you can view the segment and see the original raw interview. My edit clearly is a cut-down, and I chose not to include every single reply that Colbert said... but still I think it's pretty decent, and all the edits are clean. *coughcoughavailableforfreelanceworkcoughcough*
this is my favorite episode. he LOVVS cok
it's edited man
1:13 LIES
WTF???
just saying outrageous things and the opposite of what one might expect to hear, isn't always funny.
not colbert's best piece.
Hello commenter from 6 years ago!
This is not what he said, this is an edit made by the person who posted this video!
Following up 7 more years into the future just to tell you it's definitely edited
