Banking and Basketball: Videos that Score!
The "Doug Shoot" has been a long time coming. We were pitching ideas to First National Bank not long after the ink was dry with the partnership. But timing is always a little crazy when the main man is juggling an NBA schedule.
Our list is a mile long when it comes to college and professional athletes we've worked with. When it comes down to it, our main goal is to keep a relaxed atmosphere while we are filming. We had five hours with Doug on Monday, and a full punch list of content. We filmed everything from surprising First National Bank Creighton Visa Debit Cardholders, to a private meet and greet, to interviews and filming Doug with Creighton Basketball campers.

We kept our crew small. We used 3 shooters for the day, just to make sure nothing was missed. We had one assistant producer on set and an audio guy. We shot with a Cannon 5D Mark II, a Cannon 5D Mark III, Panasonic AF100, and a Panasonic GH4.
We got everything knocked out and wrapped 20 minutes ahead of schedule. We're excited to start editing the final product, which will begin in the next couple of days. Stay tuned!
Using Video and Graphics for High-Impact Results - The Houston Dynamo!
Our work with the Houston Dynamo of the MLS started in 2010 with a TV spot promoting an upcoming match against world soccer legend Thierry Henry.
Since that time, we’ve produced well over 75 videos for the Dynamo that cover the full range of production. Commercials, in-stadium graphics & features, sponsorship presentations & pitches, jersey unveiling’s, new stadium celebrations, psych-up videos, team intros, season-in-review’s….the list goes on and on.

Tonight we’re working on a video celebrating their 10th season in Houston. Going through all of the historical highlights keeps reminding me of the really fun projects we’ve been a part of over the last five years.
One of my favorites was from 2011, when in-state rival FC Dallas and the Dynamo were beginning to define a new rivalry. We developed the concept, wrote, edited and developed the graphic content for this spot:
A second favorite was a video we produced that aired as part of the pregame ceremony on opening night at the Dynamo’s new stadium:
It’s been a fun five years of content for the Dynamo, and a successful 10 years in Houston for one of the MLS’s best franchises.
