Entry Description

This was a product produced by GBN Broadcasting's Football Production Crew. The crew consists of twenty broadcasting students and is a five camera shoot, including two cameras in the press box, two wireless cameras on the field, and one camera located near the crowd. We also have instant replay, a scoreboard operator, audio engineer, a director and a technical director. The announcers are from our sportscasting class.

  • 4/26 7:36 am - Leave field cam before they break huddle. Good talent energy. Good, constant rotation thru all cameras.
  • 4/25 8:34 am - Play-by-Play and color do a really nice job of describing the action without going overboard. Sideline camera a little shaky, didn't like how that camera was taken every time at the start of the play. I would rather see the offensive and defensive formations from the top to anticipate as a viewer what might happen. Too many shots of cheerleaders and fans, I understand they are a part of the event but what matters most is what is going on on the field.
  • 3/12 8:07 am - The first thing that I noticed about this clip was the nice audio mix of announcers and the nat sound from the field. That gives a nice feel of "being there" even though we aren't. Announcers both sound knowledgeable; make sure that you don't step on each other when providing analysis, though. As soon as that play-by-play action is described the color analysis should jump in a explain "how it happened", etc. There were some cuts to cheerleaders and crowd that was a nice touch, again, helped build the atmosphere for viewers that can't be at the game.
  • 3/3 9:49 am - Positive: The play by play and commentators seem engaged and energetic. The normal long shot showed good detail of each play. Nice scoreboard graphic
  • 3/3 9:49 am - Improvements: The shots seemed a little predictable: Sideline looking into the huddle, top camera, cheerleaders. Even though the play by play called the right game, names would be an added benefit of the announcing. Occasionally it looked like the top camera didn't know what to do after the play - stay in the spot, follow a player, etc. Lastly, try to get some emotion of players and/or coaches. You showed the game, but it could use a little life
