Great Highlights from a Poster

[Deleted]

Just wanted to make a little plug here for "ToTheHouse" and the highlights he made of their season last fall. This is seriously the kind of stuff I think we all wish we could do with our highlights, but it obviously takes the right computer programs, the know-how, and a ton of time. My regret is that I don't have any of that but left it in the office for the players to watch yesterday evening and now they want something like it.

I just wanted to give you a rundown. He took a central theme for the season "Terminator 2" and uses the whole theme to build a highlight video. Very cool. A number of different sections--top 10 plays, all-league players, regular season, playoff run, etc. Very, very good.

I know that he makes videos for hire at www.reelsportsreplay.com and has a ton of neat stuff there.

Mostly I found out about it just because I sent him a private message about a question.

If you get a chance, take a look at his stuff. Like I told our head coach yesterday, I don't know why this guy is messing around with high school, colleges pay good money for a guy with his talent to do video. He must like coaching those League MVPs!!!

is this just a plug for this guys services, or are there actual clips lasting more than 5 seconds somewhere on that site?

There are a lot of clips on the site, but he next-day aired the highlight videos on DVD to me so what I'm referring to is the videos he sent me.

the video effects and stuff are actually not that difficult and y'all can download those programs for FREE off of cnet or downloads.com....

the biggest thing to make highlight videos is getting GOOD FILM (it's frustrating).

I wish there was something I could discuss further here....but all any of us can comment on is the few 5 second clips.....

I appreciate the plug Blitz...

Broph - I have not had time to clean up my web site and put more than a few clips on the there. Those clips are actually from a DVD I created called, "The Greatest Licks". Over 300 big hits from high school players from all over the country. I finished that in 2003.

Broph - If you are skeptical and think what I do is from a download or "not that difficult" then I'll have to show you. Send me an email with your address and I'll send one to you. [e-mail]

I provide a service to coaches who don't want to take the time, or can't find the time, to make a highlight film for their team. Mine may not be the best. All I am trying to say it that I could be an option. I really appreciate Irish's comments. I make custom films. I am a father of two small boys, full time teacher, full time football coach, small video making business, and sell DSV part time. I make about five team highlight films a season. Let me know if you want one. I'll send anyone my work. I find it like coaching. I like seeing what everyone does.
