Last Thursday, during my sports video shoot for the Waukesha South Blackshirts Football team, I shot this photo of some players in front of the Ken Hollub Stadium scoreboard. This was their final game of the season, so a lot of the players hang around field for some reflection. This photo was of the last four players on the field.

Waukesha South Blackshirt Football Team Green Screen Video Introduction Shots

Shot 25 green screen head shots for the Waukesha South Blackshirts Football Team on Wednesday, October 17. The shots will be composited over an animated title sequence for their highlight video. I also shot their final home game the following night at Ken Hollub Stadium. It rained for the entire game so it was a good thing I had a KATA rain cover for the video camera. A little awkward for shooting but it stays dry.

Coin Toss – Waukesha South Football homecoming game against Arrowhead. Photo taken 9/28/12.

The coin toss for a Classic 8 football game I shot video for. I usually bring along my still camera and take some shots in between the video stuff. I shoot sports highlight video for the Waukesha South Blackshirts Football team and the still shots come in handy for extra filler in the final video. I drop them into After Effects and create some animated effects to give them some extra life. Depending on the opening to the highlight video, I may use them to create a movie trailer effect to the start. The sunsets are usually a decent color this time of year so they make for some nice images. I try to avoid a flash if possible and just up the iso a little.
