BESL Pro S2 Team Profiles – Interviews


— DESCRIPTION

Team profiles/interviews that were played before or in-between games. Very fast edits as is the case with most HyperTown content due to lack of time. I believe this HyperTown I actually had a 30hr long work marathon to finish the videos on time.


Looking at this in 2020 there are 2 things I would've done differently. #1 – Have a consistent, better looking color grade.

#2 – Instruct the film crew to think more about the lighting for all shots and properly test audio prior to each recording/give better instructions to players.

— PROJECT NAME

BESL Pro S2 Team Intros


— DESCRIPTION

Team intro videos for when they walk on the stage.


For the team intros I prepared a template in advance to edit them as fast as possible. Still took ages to render because of the format in which I received the player pictures.


Lesson for future – when using images in video editing, process them as much as possible before even importing them in the project NOT during the video edit.


Keying 5x greenscreen in a comp. with 3D camera movement took ages to render.
