OT: Virginia Tech Documentary

By: IceHokieGuy on January 18, 2017, 4:47 PM | 20 comments

As promised here it is. I have not put in Titles, Chapter titles, or credits in yet, so if there is black, just wait a few seconds and it will resume. I had a lot of fun putting this together
Hope you guys enjoy!
(also I did not do the voice for this, my brother did, and he is significantly younger)

Edit: Here is a more updated version with Titles and credits

I can't sleep so I'm up watching. I'm on the Clemson game right now. What a song choice for that game!

This is awesome! Was just thinking about doing something along the lines of a recap video for the season. Nothing as in depth as this, well done.

Awesome documentary!

Are you looking for feedback? I have a few criticisms of the narration.

-What we do is, if we need that extra push, you know what we do? -Put it up to fully dipped? -Fully dipped. Exactly. It's dork magic.

My brother did the narration and yeah I know he isn't good but I didn't have to pay him

Just that Appa-LATCH-un should have a short A, and Liberty isn't Division II. Other than that I loved it, sounded natural and just the right tone.

Haha fair enough - perhaps he just needs experience and not be so nervous. Maybe do it yourself next time?

I would do it if my voice on camera didn't sound like a nickelodeon actor on helium

I can pronounce Appalachian the right way and have a thick accent! I'm down for it!

Fortunately for us Satellite radio listeners, Dabo's victory speech has replaced Dino's as daily bumper music.

If there is any part of this to watch, it is probably the UVA game above else

Hey maybe it's just me, but the McMillan audio discussion of his TD at BoB seems to be out of sync with his mouth.

Overall a really good job. I don't know if you were looking for feedback or not but here are a couple of things I noticed.

If your brother is willing I think it would be worth it to re-record some of his narration. Early on there is one point where you hear him flip a page in the script and there are some double spoken words plus the pronunciation and other items NavyEMC pointed out.

You might want to bring in his narrative a little earlier for the UNCheat game. The weather report seems to run long. Do you have the "Just listen to that crowd" clip from the ESPN post game interview with CJF for the UNCheat game? It feels like it would fit with what you have. Also, it seemed strange that there wasn't a narration for the GT game. The other spot that it felt a little too opponent focused was for the ACCCG you could cut to shots of the agony of defeat a little sooner.

I told him I’d crawl on my hands and knees to be the DL coach at Virginia Tech. Now, all of a sudden, I’m sitting in this chair and I told him I’d still crawl on my hands and knees to work here. I just want to be here.

I don't have that clip, although I would like to put it in. I do have the post game interview against ND where he said "Blacksburg is a pretty special place" which will be in the final cut today along with a post-credits sequence honoring the fans of VT

Looked great though I had to watch it muted because I couldn't understand what was being said. It looked like a lot of work and like you did a great job
