Some Steps In Making Sports Recruiting Videos

By Krystal Branch


If one is an aspiring athlete who would want to make it to the best college sports teams or the big leagues, then he should first show the recruiters that he is actually worthy of their time and viewing. A very good way to be able to show off some skills would be to make some sports recruiting videos for the recruiters. Just in case one does not know where to start, here are a few tips that may help.

Before one would create his video, he would first have to get hold of some video clips that contain his performances. He can do this by asking the head coach to give him some as it is definite that the head coach would keep those videos in his files. Now while doing that, he should also ask the coach to select the ones where he has performed exceptionally.

Now when he has obtained all of the required footage from the head coach, then he has to now look for some of the highlights there that can be included in the video. It is recommended that he would ask some assistance from the head coach in picking the specific highlights. The coach will be able to tell him the things that recruiters are searching for.

After getting some of the highlights that should be included in the video, then the next step would be to download these things inside the laptop. With this, he can use a video cutter to let the videos contain just the highlights that he would want to showcase. After that, he may just save these clips in a different folder which will be used later.

Now he should put that aside first and go on to the next step which is making an introduction part for his clip. Now this introduction has to include a short message saying his name, school, address, and what his role is in the varsity. Of course this should be followed by a short introductory message stating the whole purpose of this clip in the first place.

Once he has created a that introduction video, then he may now compile all of his videos together to make one video. Now he should make the transition of the scenes as nice as possible so that the recruiters can see that it is a professionally made video. One should take note that presentation is as equally important as content.

When the video has already been made, then he may now distribute his copies to the recruiters. Now he may distribute these copies to the recruiters who would come to watch the games. Another thing he can do is he can make use of some connections of his head coach so that he may get to the recruiters.

Now one thing to never ever forget when making sports recruiting videos is to make sure it is not hours long. It should be at most ten to fifteen minutes long only. The introduction should be thirty seconds to minute while the rest of the film should be the highlights part.
