 * I’ve set up a video library of sorts and when you come to this library, there’s
   a list of videos to watch and you can click thru to individual pages with said
   video to watch.
 * **Concept 1:** Ideally, I’d like to be able to edit a video post and “tag” it
   as featured so when you view that page, this specific video displays at the top
   and is styled much larger like a banner. So, an if statement in the template?(
   I’m a beginner, be gentle)
 * **Concept 2:** Otherwise, if I could create a post that is the featured video
   and that would just be manually changed when the feature would change BUT I am
   unsure how to plug that in to the template. Specifically, how that PHP would 
   be written.

 * So, I accomplished Concept 2 HOWEVER, I’d like to incorporate Concept 1, if it’s
   possible. It’d be much easier to just edit an existing post and click a toggle
   rather than duplicating content.
