While cruising through Motionographer I found an intense film piece for the Michael Jordan brand JumpMan23. I believe it offers some awesome editing techniques that I would like to try. The sound editing on it is great because, similar to the Saving Private Ryan clip we saw, it takes you in and out of some intense yelling to slow motion panting. If you’re into basketball in the least you are on the edge of your seat. One second your teammates are yelling at you, the next you can’t hear a single thing because you’re soaring above everything about to dunk on some fool.

Not only does the audio take you through the game but also some of the filming techniques literally take you through the game. At one point the camera is down at the floor filming all the players running past, I don’t know how they got that technique but it was spectacular. Similar to the audio the video will change from an intense charge across the court to a slow cut of one of the players yelling. The transitions from the intense speed to no motion at all just keeps me intranced and that is an aspect that we should all be aspiring for within our class.
