Tanka Jahari Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I don't know if we can pin this topic or not but it might be helpful. Which teams playing for a state championship this week use endzone cameras, and what is your brand/model/set-up? Who are the top endzone videographers from the teams vying for a trophy this week? Please name them to recognize their greatness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPARKS Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I know they aren't in the finals, but the video crew from Camptown Creek were great. They had a camera focused on each member of the officiating crew and chain gang. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanka Jahari Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 Happy Monday? Which teams' endzone videographers stood out this weekend in Lucas Oil Stadium? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanka Jahari Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 Who are some potential standout endzone videographers for the 2021 season? Which unheard of videographers will breakout? Could we see the quality of endzone film nearing what was produced at U of Alabama under Alex Seiver (director of video production) and Steven Jenkins (assistant director of video production) circa 2017? The endzone film from spring practice that year was exemplary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tango Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Our guy "Big Cat" is a veteran but he always has to be in the discussion when it comes to all-state end-zone videographers. He's so good we've had to assign him personal protection to keep the middle schoolers and 70/80's letter jacket crews at Gibson Southern & Castle from harassing him during road games. He's a legend. Just don't give him chili at a tailgate or all bets are off. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir, this is may seem like a bit to you, but to me this is important. It would take too long to explain so please just take my word for it. My earliest memories were standing in crow's nests next to my father, Poppa Jahari, as he filmed games for the local high school. His father, Grandpop Jahari, was the man behind the camera for the first football game to be filmed, Princeton vs. Yale in 1903. You can still view that game film on Youtube. Football videography was quite literally invented by my family. Both Grandpop Jahari and Poppa Jahari had long careers as football videographers. Sadly, tragedy struck on my first night behind the camera. I was a freshman in high school set to film my first game for my school's team. I was so nervous that I pissed my pants a little bit. Wearing shorts at the time, the urine collected on the platform below me. Poppa Jahari climbed up to give me pointers during my big debut. That's when everything changed. Poppa Jahari slipped in the pee puddle and fell off the back of the press box to his death. I instantly developed a crippling fear of heights, which kept me from filming anymore games......UNTIL When I discovered the endzone camera, I was able to become a football videographer once more. Imagine my joy at being able to stand on solid ground while filming football from high above. My life was whole again. I owe everything I have today to invention of the endzone camera.

How many other videographers lead the team on field (breaking the cheerleader banner in the process) and then turn around and run the EZ camera. His work at Danville 2017 grants him legendary status. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWFan Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Shouldn't @Tanka Jahari be telling us who the endzone camera MVPs are? The all American filmers? The rookie Video Grapher of the year? Where's the list!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st_and_10 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) @Tanka Jaharithis may come as a total shock... Western Boone does not use an EZ camera. Somehow, by the grace of God they were able to win 3 State Championships in a row. I would assume winning without EZ camera is equivolent to playing/winning up 2 classes?

Western Boone would probably have like 7 state championships in a row if they had a Hi-Pod X31 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhpatriot04 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Do you have contact details for Union (Dugger)? I hear they may need some support and end zone cameras might just do the trick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
