Our final assignment in the fellowship was to create a hype video for the upcoming hockey season for the San Jose sharks. As a fan of the Sharks, I was incredibly excited to work on this and create something that both longtime fans and new fans could watch and enjoy.
The creative idea behind this video was to create something you might see playing as a commercial on espn or wherever else you may be watching sports. I wanted to bring feelings of excitement and passion, as well as strength and speed, so I edited the footage I was given into clips that are in time with the music.
The most difficult task of this entire project (besides waiting for everything to render) was to edit the footage just right so that former players did not appear. It came down to frame-by-frame editing to achieve this.
