Sports action is made for video.
Action, color, drama, and excitement all make for great video stories, whether it's basketball, hockey, soccer, baseball, or any other sport. But the great granddaddy of sports drama is NFL Films. They still lead the way in telling and retelling us mesmerizing legends of the playing field: impossible dreams, long quests, gritty action in all kinds of settings, bitter defeat, and glorious victory.
If you're even a casual fan of pro football you've seen the meticulous production and editing that turn a football game into a ballet, an opera, or a battle between the Persians and the Spartans. Surely you've heard the deep baritone voice of the late John Facenda speak of "the frozen tundra of Green Bay", or a Robert Frost-like poem accompanying the sights of large grown men playing a boy's game. This style - often mimicked and parodied - is the face of the NFL.
What makes these productions so intriguing? Did you know that with today's editing software you can create your own great moments in any sport in dramatic style? We specialize in editing your sports footage into Sports Highlight Videos. Here are just a few of the elements we see in big time NFL Films productions that we can approximate with your sports action:
- A soft, arty "film" look that tugs the emotions
- Lots of slow motion.
- Lots of sound - from the field, the sidelines, the locker room, etc.
- Booming narrations quoting literature greats like Shakespeare, Frost, and Browning
- Signature camera shots, tight on the ball, jump cuts, close ups, multiple cameras
- Dubbed sound bites of enthusiastic local broadcasts over key plays
- Very macho, muscular music scores
Are the cameras rolling at your local sporting events? The field of athletic competition produces some of the best memories of our lives, and the lives of our children. You have the human drama of athletic competition in your hands as well. What are you doing with it? Where are your son's Little League games? Or your daughter's soccer matches? Or your bowling league? Or your well-played charity golf tournament? Don't let them sit in cameras or in drawers! It's time to make a play and turn these into interesting stories! Let us help you bring all your great sports moments to life!
It's all up to your imagination. We can create highlight arrows, isolation techniques, quick cuts, slow motion, stop action, high energy music, narration...the possibilities are limitless. But in the end you'll have your own "NFL Films" production!Speaking of video and sports, another of our specialties is a Sports Scholarship Video.
