I don’t like anything about LA but somehow this video had me cheering for the Dodgers…how did you do that?
I really feel like you guys nailed it with this one. It’s to the point where you have to watch it twice to really appreciate the intricacies, especially when you know how much work goes into an edit like this. Stunning job all around
This video made my heart skip a couple beats…killer intro, major editing skills, just plain wow.
Action much? This video is a winner
A good intermix of tense build up, driving music and a dynamic that brings you into the moment between these two teams as they battle it out for the win. Beautiful footage and a well built piece.
Love this!!! Makes me want to bleed Dodger Blue and that’s coming from a die hard Phillies fan.
I can see you are an expert at your field! This is professionally done in every aspect
I really love this video! It captures all the tension, passion and thrill of the sport! The picture is crystal clear with beautiful slow motion shots and the edit has great pacing!
Alright, I’m going to come out and say that I am a die hard Phillies fan. But this promo has me even starting to “Think Blue”!
I love the whole thing. it build up the tension and even got my to love the LA Dodgers even more. I am a huge fan of the them. The quality is amazing as well.
Wonderful video!
This quality of video should be standard in the MLB
Amazing piece of work. Felt like I saw an entire 3 hour game in less than five minutes. Shooting and post were very impressive.
whoops…forgot the link: http://es.pn/JCdVGe
Loved the video too. I didn’t even care that you mixed in a storyline from another game against the Padres…it makes it MUCH MORE THRILLING to believe it actually happened to the hated GNATS!!! hahaha. 4+1 game will forever be one of my favorite Dodger memories. JEFF KENT + JD DREW + RUSSELL MARTIN + MARLON ANDERSON and NOMAH!!!
…still gives me chills just thinking about it…!!!!!!!!
read all about it here.
anywho…GREAT VIDEO…definitely gets me pumped up for this season. and we are on a ROLL!!!
This video brought chills to my skin. The quality of the video is outstanding. Detail and execution is to point, and ending is phenomenon. You can see the intensity of the game and the history between these two teams in minutes.
Extremely well put together. The high speed shots early on build up emotion and tension between the players. Then hitting the viewer with quick cuts and fast zooms/pans, keeping the tempo up. The soundtrack is heart pumping and keeping me glued. And ending it with some great AE work. Solid product!
A pleasure to watch. Very stunning and captivating. The sound design was powerful and the pacing was engaging. Great edits and use of camera angles. Fantastic work.
I seriously felt like I was watching a movie. The production was great and the storytelling couldn’t be any better. As a big sports fan I left hoping that every game could be filmed this way. Rep Interactive does wonderful work and I’m looking forward to seeing more. ESPN who!!!!!!!
I am a San Francisco Giants fan and if you know sports rivalries, you know that this is not a friendly relationship. But this is such an amazing video, cutting edge editing, fantastic video quality and awesome angles. I would have loved to be apart of this production team. Go Giants!
Another stunning presentation from REP Interactive. Excellent and well thought out camera movements and angles, on the field, around the stadium, and high in the sky. The ambient audio from the crowd also really caught my attention and made me feel like I was really there with the crowd cheering. All cuts were on cue, and the clips really sparked my interest in the Dodgers.
What a thrilling video! The incredible camera work combined with fast-paced editing brings highlights the drama in a big game. This video takes the entertainment of baseball and turns the volume all the way up so that I’m jumping out of the seat without even watching the actual game! Definitely makes me want to hit the park this spring.
This is definitely a world-class video with some amazing cuts
and soundtrack. Quick pans, forward and backward zooms,
real-time and slow motion shots provide a spectacular
tempo; heightening the tension in both the game and fan
footage. From the cityscape establishing shot of L.A. to the
intense actions of both the players’ and fan’s POV, this video
takes the viewer on a roller coaster ride of emotions and
gives the illusion of being a passionate fan in the Dodger
Stadium or a player on the field. It makes me want to go the
game. Being able to communicate emotion in an authentic
way from both the player and fan POV is what I like best
about Think Blue.
Loved this video. Great edits! High quality video and animation. Very well put together
I enjoyed the clear emotions that you saw in the fans, the Dodger players, and the SF players. The audience could feel the excitement of the players when they won.
I loved this commercial. You felt the energy in the stadium from everyones stand point. You felt the excitement of the fans, the energy and the talent of the dodgers and the disappointment of the giants. That is a game I would have liked to be at. Now if only all baseball games were that exciting.
This video is very dynamic, it tells the story in dramatic imagery that keeps it moving. The use of close-ups bring the viewer into the action and the wide shots are exciting to watch. Overall, a really good promo.
I like this video, perhaps because I am a sports fan, but even more so since I appreciate all the work that went in to it. There are some really nice shots there, including a great over the stadium, skyline shot. The choice of music is very fitting and the way the footage is cut to it makes it very compelling and exciting. The spot utilizes the HD footage to its fullest and the slowed down shots look really sharp. This is a high quality spot.
I love the cinematography. I hope to make quality work like this.
This is a great video, the kind that gets me fired up to watch a game. The visuals, music and editing style work together to get the viewer excited. A great example of an excellent marketing idea, and it looked like it was fun to edit.
Very, Very well done. I am a huge baseball fan and just watching the video got me pumped for the 2012 season. Clean crisp shots, amazing audio and sound effects and great story telling. Really impressive.
Even if you are not a sports fan, the emotional intensity of watching any close game will have you on the edge of your seat. This video seemed to capture all of the drama, tension, and excitement of an entire baseball game within a 2 minute span. The effective use graphic animation, slow motion video, sound effects, (excellent) music, and announcer voice over made this video a favorite of mine. Great work!
I really love the beautiful shots done in this video. Thanks to the editing, the pacing of the video was intriguing with the slow motion and to top it off, the color correction was splendid with the “vibrant stand out colors” This is well done.
The balance of motion graphics, music and cinematography was executed very well! Rarely do we get to see a baseball game this up close and personal that provides such great eye and ear candy for the viewers. Great job REP team!
Wow what a cool video this is one of my favorites so far I like the background Music to this song and the cuts to the song.
loved the editing style!
go blue!!!
This is an impressive piece of filming and post production work. The music drives the story from start to finish and the excitement of a close game when the home team wins is felt from start to finish. The video invites the viewer to participate, makes him or her feel like they are in the stands screaming along with everyone else. Use of different speeds in editing – slow motion, acceleration, etc. add to the drama. By the time the video is over you really want to go to a Dodgers game. Nice work!
Go Dodgers! I can’t wait to go to the games this year!! Awesome video guys
This was my favorite video. the intense facial expressions combined with the slowing down of motion in the beginning gives it that “the beat is about to drop” effect. Like being at a concert and once the beat drops everyone goes nuts and starts dancing. Makes you feel like you are right there up close and personal with everything. Then it continues through out the video with some Rage Against the Machine (which I have been listening to since I was 13 years old). The depressed look of the opposing team members face at the end is priceless.
