    🎬 The Shots We Never Leave Without | Sports Videography Essentials In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down the shots they never leave a sports event without. Whether you're filming hockey, football, basketball, or any live sporting event, there are certain shots that consistently help tell a better story, save your edit, and make your final video feel complete. The guys discuss establishing shots, crowd reactions, bench moments, coach interactions, hero shots, detail shots, and the importance of capturing more than just the action on the field. They also share how they approach storytelling during a game, when to play it safe versus when to take creative risks, and why variety is often more important than getting one perfect shot. Because the truth is... The big moments get the attention. The supporting shots make the edit. 🎬 Topics include: • Establishing shots that set the scene • Hero shots during warmups • Crowd reactions and atmosphere • Bench and sideline storytelling • Capturing coaches and team interactions • Detail shots that elevate your edits • Wide shots vs tight shots • Creating variety in sports videos • Playing it safe vs taking creative risks • Building a complete game-day story 📲 Follow us on Instagram for updates & behind-the-scenes content gamedayglare 🎥 ULANZI JJ06 TRAVEL TRIPOD https://www.ulanzi.com?aff=3129 🎥 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 | info@lancelaberge.com

    Game Day Glare #107 WHAT CLIENTS WANT

    🎬 What Clients ACTUALLY Want | It's Not Your Camera In this episode of Game Day Glare, Lance and E break down what clients are really paying for — and spoiler alert... it’s probably not what you think. A lot of videographers focus on gear, camera specs, and creative tricks. While those things matter, most clients care far more about communication, trust, speed, and reliability. Lance and E share real stories from client projects, discuss common communication mistakes, explain why fast delivery often beats a perfect edit, and talk about how solving problems is ultimately what gets you hired again and again. They also dive into live sports workflows, uploading content during games, managing client expectations, and why being easy to work with is one of the most valuable skills you can develop as a creator. Because the truth is... Your clients aren't buying a camera. They're buying confidence that you'll get the job done. 🎬 Topics include: • What clients actually care about • Why communication is everything • Fast delivery vs perfect videos • Building trust with clients • Common mistakes creators make • Asking better questions before a shoot • Managing expectations and revisions • Solving problems instead of selling services • Live sports content workflows • Why reliability wins more work 📲 Follow us on Instagram for updates & behind-the-scenes content gamedayglare 🎥 ULANZI JJ06 TRAVEL TRIPOD https://www.ulanzi.com?aff=3129 🎥 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 | info@lancelaberge.com
