With Football season right around the corner, it's hard not to be excited. I love football season and I of course, loyally follow the Buccaneers.
So the other night I was tinkering around in Photoshop and put some new players acquired this off-season in Bucs uniforms. Making it a little unique as those particular players haven't played a game for the Bucs yet and there are really no images of these players suited up. I posted them in a Bucs forum I frequent and got a very positive response from my little endevors.
One poster in the forum was curious as to how I put these players into these uniforms. That gave me the idea to make a video about how I go about doing that. It was interesting, making the video. I had never recorded my desktop before and wanted it to come out all right the first time. This isnt for a client so I wasnt about to get all in a tizzy for nothing.
I figured I would use the Bucs newest 1st round draft pick, Josh Freeman, as my subject matter. Needless to say it was quite a process. The sig only took an hour to make start to finish, but I wouldn't be able to put that on you tube to share with everyone with it that long, so I had to render the video and condense the speed. Then I rendered again and condensed the speed again getting the video down to a few minutes. An hour long project wound up being spread out over a couple days.
I think its a neat little venture into bridging the gaps between design, film making, and the behind the scenes process to it all. It was a fun, albeit long project. I may not be apposed to making another one or two sometime in the future.
