    Game Day Glare #96 Fix Your Workflow

    🎬 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

    🎬 Sony A75 Review | The New Hybrid King for Sports? In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down the new Sony A75 and what it actually means for sports videographers.

E shares real-world testing from basketball games, low-light environments, and fast-paced action — while Lance compares it to the A74 and other cameras sports creators are using right now. They dive into autofocus improvements, 4K 120 performance, overheating concerns, new ISO capabilities, dynamic range, stabilization, and whether this is finally the all-in-one body hybrid shooters have been waiting for.

    Game Day Glare #94 John Gray’s Championship Journey

    🎬 From GoPro to NBA Champion In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E welcome back John Gray from OKC — now an NBA Champion. The last time John was on the show, he talked about filming wrestling events with a GoPro and chasing opportunity with an empty backpack full of ambition. This time, he’s breaking down what it was like to capture an NBA championship from the inside. From the chaos of Game 7… to fighting for floor access… to shooting trophy ceremonies shoulder-to-shoulder with network crews… to riding in the championship parade — this episode dives deep into what it really feels like when the dream actually happens. But this conversation goes beyond the win. John opens up about: • The pressure of playoff content creation • Managing bigger budgets and higher expectations • Upgrading to RED Komodos mid-playoffs • Balancing creativity inside a professional sports organization • Why personal projects matter — even at the highest level • And what actually fulfills you after you “make it” If you’re a sports videographer chasing the next level, this episode is about more than rings. It’s about growth, relationships, and staying hungry after success. 🎧 Topics include: • Capturing the championship moment in real time • Playoff pressure & expanding shot lists • Working with third-party shooters • RED Komodo vs Sony FX3 on game day • Shooting locker room celebrations • Parade experiences & behind-the-scenes dynamics • Approval layers after a championship win • Staying creative inside a sports organization • Why relationships matter more than the trophy 🎙 Key Quote: “You’re chasing something you think will complete you… but it’s the people you meet along the way that actually do.” 📲 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

    🎬 Apple Creator Studio — Worth It for Sports Videographers? In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down Apple’s new Creator Studio bundle and what it actually means for sports videographers. Is this the Adobe killer everyone’s talking about? Or just another shiny tool creators don’t really need? They go app by app — from Final Cut Pro to Motion and Logic — and compare it to real-world workflows in sports content creation. This isn’t a tutorial. It’s a decision-making episode. If you’re editing highlights, interviews, hype reels, and social cutdowns every week, this conversation will help you figure out whether Apple’s ecosystem makes sense for your workflow — or if sticking with Adobe or Resolve is the smarter move. They also talk pricing, long-term value, subscription fatigue, and what actually matters when you’re trying to move fast on game day. 🎬 Topics include: • What Apple Creator Studio actually includes • Final Cut Pro vs Premiere Pro for sports editing • Motion vs After Effects • Apple’s pricing model vs subscriptions • Speed, workflow, and game-day turnaround • Transcription tools and search features • AI tools inside editing software • Switching ecosystems — worth the risk? • What sports videographers really need 📲 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

    Shooting Motocross at Full Speed In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E sit down with motorsports videographer Kyle Thompson to talk about what it really takes to film high-speed racing. Kyle breaks down how he approaches race starts, how he positions himself for impact shots, and how anticipation — not luck — is what separates average clips from elite footage.

    🎬 Video Editing Tools: What Works, What Doesn’t, and What Matters In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down the editing tools and workflows sports videographers actually use — and where some of the hype starts to fall apart. They talk through real-world experiences with Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, and After Effects, along with the ongoing Mac vs PC debate. The conversation goes beyond software and gets into editing style choices, sound design, visual effects, and how far you should really be pushing things in sports videos.

This episode is about cutting through noise, using tools with intention, and focusing on what actually improves your edits on game day. 🎬 Topics include: Premiere Pro vs DaVinci Resolve Where CapCut fits (and where it doesn’t) Mac vs PC for sports videographers Why After Effects still matters Speed ramping and when it’s overused Sound design and why it elevates edits Visual effects in sports videos AI tools and workflow efficiency Why real footage still wins 📲 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

    🎬 Overrated or Underrated Part 2 | Sports Videography Gear & Setups In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down what gear actually matters when filming sports — and what might be more hype than help. They run through lenses, gimbals, stabilization, batteries, and accessories, sharing real-world opinions from game days, tight spaces, and fast-moving environments. From telephoto lenses and fast primes to monopods, cages, and V-mount batteries, this episode is all about efficiency, mobility, and making smart gear decisions that don’t slow you down. If you’ve ever questioned whether you really need that extra lens, rig, or accessory — this one’s for you. 🎬 Topics include: Telephoto lenses: worth it or overkill?
