My first idea for this project was to take clips of NBA games with the ball edited out, along with other objects, to accentuate the movements and footwork of players and to demonstrate how much of the sport is practice. Unfortunately, it's a long and tedious process to edit things out so I changed my idea for the sake of time.
I still wanted to do a piece relating to basketball and the first idea that came to me was to do on piece on Michael Jordan. I wanted to show case his career, presenting it like a fairy tale, and wanted to show how much of an icon he was globally. For the second part of the piece I wanted to show the shadow he has cast, both, intentionally career wise, and unintentionally through the media, on basketball players that have come after him and how unfair it is for people to compare them (the whole next Jordan craze).
As I was working on the media section of the piece (Jordan Media) I noticed that it was getting long and I was getting detailed so I decided to focus on that area and so I made my piece on that. I don't know if I will finish my original broad subject but I believe this media portion can stand on it's own and that is what I will present for this class. The video includes various Jordan Media: commercials, music videos, and a movie. I edited clips together in the attempt to create a cohesive video (visually and subject wise).
