Phoenix Suns History/Playoff "music video" 

Post#1 » by Christine-In-AZ » Sat Apr 19, 2008 6:39 pm

I created a 10+ minute video about (and for) the Suns. I slammed it together in the last 36 hours out of guilt to a degree...feeling bad about not having faith that we're going to beat the Spurs. I just don't see it.

I promised myself I'd have it "up" before gametime, so if you'd like to check it out at either...

That was pretty friggin' sweet.

Must've taken forever to do those cutouts; nice job using simple cuts and photos and moving them in a way that could verrrry easily have come out badly - YouTube videos are full of terrible examples. That's so much harder than it sounds.

man that is awesome! over the first 3/4's of it you really get a sense of doom and almost curse hanging over the suns

i would LOVE to see it updated when (if?) we ever win a title with the celebration, elation etc of the curse being broken

is it possible for you to make that available to download?

That video was truly amazing and really gave me goosebumps.

I know the Spurs are a tough opponent but i think we do have what it takes to beat them this time around.

Thanks...and consider it a done deal (updating the vid) if the Suns can win it all. I'll really go all out and bring in more elements. I had to leave a ton of Photoshop work on the cutting room floor because the video got so long. There's a whole section (Suns from '94 to 2005) I left out due to length.

Here is the new link for the video.. actually two-

or

The video has been tweaked just a bit and is now available in QT. To download simply right click either of the links on the start page and "save target"

I could even publish a DVD image file if there is call, that one can burn to DVD.

Nice work Crhis. Props to ya on that!

And thank you for not using rap music. Too much of that on all the videos on Youtube.

That was great!

I do think, though, that triumphs such as Chapman's 3, Amare's bank 3, Tim Thomas' shot in 2006, Raja's shot in 2006, etc should have been placed in there as well.

However, I do know that this was a "Finals" video, so if that was your aim then those omissions should be overlooked.

Hopefully we can amend it soon.
