VIDEO - FanCam episode (Bolton Wanderers game) is here...


Recommended Posts

have a look at what man city do, they have loads of behind the scenes footage of staf on their site.

Personally I'm not a fan of the interviewer led videos, they feel cheap. Have a look/go at creating some where the interviewer doesn't have to be part of it, let the subjects lead the segments themselves etc. it'd be better for continuity, especially if for some reason you couldn't do one or someone else wanted to.

Interviews are an extremely difficult thing to lead and I'd definitely recommend some training (seriously, don't take this as too much of a negative, it's just a skill that some people don't naturally have). You need to look at how to lead questions and get full answers, how to use body language to press for further comments and agree with them, thus avoiding interrupting them etc.

Also, get a better microphone. no offence, but that thing is a bit embarrassing!

Seriously, if you want a hand with some of this drop me a line. I have few years of experience in creating video for newspapers/magazines... particularly around sports.

Cheers mate

The idea is not to be 'pro' but grass roots fan stuff

The microphone is legendary already... there's no way we'd swap it out for a shiny bigger/perfectly formed one... this one has character

lol

Fair do's I'm really impressed by this. Nice one to the guy who orgainsed it all.

Being from outside Sheff, I only have a handful of mates / fam who are Owls so it's nice to hear other fans views (that aren't the same as the miserable guys who sit next to me on the Kop!)

Why grass roots? You should aim to get it to be as polished as possible (and I mean things like microphone holding avoiding things like arms taking up 30% of the screen which can all be doable with a bit more practice or training/assistance).

And drop the mic merely on the audio quality! get a decent boom mic and pole, or just get one camera mounted, a lavalier for individual interviews... makes a big difference, trust me.

Offer is there if you want a hand tho. PM me if you want to see any examples of my past work.

Here you go...

We're still playing with the format and trying to establish what would be the best/most fun/most interesting way to do this but the first two games has shown Wednesday fans are definitely interested in fans perspective on things...

Have a look
