    🎬 Mistakes That Slow You Down on Game Day In this solo episode of Game Day Glare, Lance breaks down the biggest mistakes that can slow you down when filming sports — and how to avoid them.

Lance also shares real behind-the-scenes from filming during the Montreal Canadiens playoffs, testing new roles, experimenting with FPV drones, and adapting to new shooting angles under pressure.

    The Best Investments We Made | What Actually Moves Your Career Forward In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E talk about the best investments they’ve made in their careers — and why it’s not always about buying new gear. From upgrading cameras like the Sony A75 to building relationships, improving workflow, learning faster, and investing in personal branding, this episode is about what actually helps you grow as a sports videographer. Because better gear won’t fix a broken workflow. They break down when it makes sense to upgrade, how to think about ROI, and why some of the biggest opportunities come from who you know, not just what you own.

    Game Day Glare #98 Stop Following the Ball

    🎬 Are You Filming… or Telling a Story? In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down the difference between just filming the game… and actually telling a story. Because anyone can follow the ball. But that doesn’t make you stand out. With playoffs around the corner, this is where storytelling matters most — capturing emotion, anticipation, and moments that go beyond the highlight. They talk about how the shift happens from “highlight chaser” to storyteller, how to plan your shots before you even hit record, and why the best footage often isn’t the play itself. From fan reactions… to bench energy… to missed shots that actually tell more than goals — this episode is about thinking differently when you film. If you’ve ever looked at your footage and thought it felt flat… this is probably why. 🎬 Topics include: • Filming vs storytelling — what’s the difference • Why following the ball isn’t enough • Planning your shots before the game • Using emotions to build stronger edits • Angles, composition, and intention • Capturing cutaways, reactions, and details • Filming one player vs the whole game • Knowing your sport to anticipate better • Why missing plays is part of the process • Simple shots that tell powerful stories 📲 Follow us on Instagram for updates & behind-the-scenes content gamedayglare 🎥 Check out our digital products for videographers & photographers 👨🏽‍💻 ULTIMATE SPORTS EDITING BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ ⚡️ ULTIMATE SPORTS VFX BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/ultimate 🎙 ULTIMATE SPORTS SFX PACK 👉 https://beyondthegame.tv/digital/p/ul... 🎨 ULTIMATE SPORTS LUT PACK 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ 📩 For collaborations and inquiries, contact: info@beyondthegame.tv | lance.pcinc@gmail.com

    Fix Your Sports Footage | Camera Settings That Actually Matter In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down why your footage isn’t looking the way you expect — even if you’re using good gear. Because the truth is… it’s usually not the camera. From bitrate and resolution to ISO, exposure, white balance, and focus — they walk through the small mistakes that add up and separate average footage from professional results. This isn’t about buying new gear. It’s about understanding the settings you’re already using. They also share real-world mistakes, how to fix them, and simple adjustments you can make right away to level up your sports footage. If you’ve ever looked at your footage and thought “why doesn’t this look like everyone else’s?” — this episode is for you. 🎬 Topics include: • 4K vs 1080 and why bitrate matters • Why your footage looks good on camera… but not on your computer • Base ISO and clean image quality • Exposure mistakes (and how to fix them) • White balance and why auto can hurt you • ND filters and outdoor shooting • Shutter speed and motion blur • When to trust autofocus — and when not to • Simple color correction that makes footage pop • Can you fix bad footage in post? 📲 Follow us on Instagram for updates & behind-the-scenes content gamedayglare 🎥 Check out our digital products for videographers & photographers 👨🏽‍💻 ULTIMATE SPORTS EDITING BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ ⚡️ ULTIMATE SPORTS VFX BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/ultimate 🎙 ULTIMATE SPORTS SFX PACK 👉 https://beyondthegame.tv/digital/p/ul... 🎨 ULTIMATE SPORTS LUT PACK 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ 📩 For collaborations and inquiries, contact: info@beyondthegame.tv | lance.pcinc@gmail.com

    🎬 Do You Have a System? | Build Workflows That Actually Scale In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down why having systems is the difference between staying busy… and actually growing. Most videographers are constantly reacting — new project, new edit, new approach every time. But the ones who scale? They build repeatable systems. Lance and E share how they’ve built workflows around shooting, editing, content delivery, and client management — especially while handling multiple clients and fast turnarounds at events and conferences. They also talk about where most people waste time, how to simplify your process, and why consistency comes from structure, not motivation. If you’re trying to grow your video business, stay consistent with content, or just stop feeling overwhelmed — this episode is for you. 🎬 Topics include: • Why most videographers have no system • How to build repeatable workflows • Saving time on editing and delivery • Managing multiple clients efficiently • Content systems for consistency • Event workflows (fast turnaround) • Scaling without burning out • Where most people lose time • Turning chaos into structure 📲 Follow us on Instagram for updates & behind-the-scenes content gamedayglare 🎥 Check out our digital products for videographers & photographers 👨🏽‍💻 ULTIMATE SPORTS EDITING BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ ⚡️ ULTIMATE SPORTS VFX BUNDLE 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/ultimate 🎙 ULTIMATE SPORTS SFX PACK 👉 https://beyondthegame.tv/digital/p/ul... 🎨 ULTIMATE SPORTS LUT PACK 👉 https://www.beyondthegame.tv/digital/ 📩 For collaborations and inquiries, contact: info@beyondthegame.tv | lance.pcinc@gmail.com
