sweet video hopefully a special season is upon us in Ann Arbor!

Is anyone going to be making a Better Son/Daughter video for this year? I know there was a poll for it but didn't hear the final decision.
August 28th, 2011 at 3:34 AM ^
I don't have much money, but I would pay for one last Better Son/Daughter video. The old ones were the best hype videos ever (imho), and the theme/lyrics are even more relevant now than ever before. It's just not the same watching it with old clips of Tate and Threet/Sheridan (though it still gives me the chills each time).
August 28th, 2011 at 1:14 AM ^
off topic, but someone with enough points needs to make a there are post
August 28th, 2011 at 1:14 AM ^
I was just about to make a new thread for my hype video (just got to 100 comments), and then you go and post this great video. How am I supposed to post mine now without looking like a total derp!?
August 28th, 2011 at 1:42 AM ^
We can never have too many hype videos my friend.
August 28th, 2011 at 1:46 AM ^
The more the merrier
August 28th, 2011 at 2:05 AM ^
I will post it. Ill wait till the morning though. I figure ill leave some space in between the two posts so people dont think they have already seen that video or something. Or for the suspense, maybe that.
It is funny though, our videos are somewhat similar. A lot of the same clips thrown around.
August 28th, 2011 at 1:20 AM ^
Great job. Really enjoyed this one.
August 28th, 2011 at 1:21 AM ^
I'm so ready for saturday.
August 28th, 2011 at 1:38 AM ^
I loved your video. Quick question, in your video from last year, where was that music from? I'm talking about the first son, not Electric Light Orchestra. The song that was playing behind "the team" speech from last year's hype video was great.
August 28th, 2011 at 1:43 AM ^
It's the theme music from the movie 28 Days Later.
August 28th, 2011 at 2:05 AM ^
I'm gonna be honest; I usually don't watch the hype videos since they're the same clips from the every offensive snap videos over and over but this one was goooooooood. Excellent work sir.
PS: Thanks for including the Shaw run in there from last year's OSU game to give us a primer of what the guy has potential to do.
August 28th, 2011 at 2:17 AM ^
Good work. Now if I can figure out how to download for our pre-game festivities...
August 28th, 2011 at 2:23 AM ^
The free version works OK. Already downloaded it myself.
August 28th, 2011 at 3:12 AM ^
good vid. I pity other teams who don't have this kind of tradition to draw on and revel in.
August 28th, 2011 at 3:13 AM ^
Really impressed with this video. This is always the longest week of the year.
August 28th, 2011 at 5:00 AM ^
Holy fuck. I am ready to slap the shit out of people. Somebody send this to the athletic dept.
6 days, Warlords unite!
August 28th, 2011 at 5:06 AM ^
This video was superb. Might be the best one I have ever seen.
August 28th, 2011 at 7:34 AM ^
That was the best hype video ever. The production values were TREMENDOUS!
Keep up the great work!
August 28th, 2011 at 7:53 AM ^
That is the best hype video I've seen yet. They need to put this up in the locker room before games.
August 28th, 2011 at 8:24 AM ^
Probably the best hype video I've seen yet. Love how you did the intro. Very sweet.
August 28th, 2011 at 8:49 AM ^
When I first saw how long the vid was, I thought it might be a little long. When it was finished I wanted more... Nice use of "The Team" speech. Gotta love Schem. I also really liked how you placed some of the vid in the architecture of the Big House. Just a few days 'till we're sitting there watching this team start another season. Go Blue!!!
August 28th, 2011 at 8:53 AM ^
Love it! Best one yet! Is it Saturday yet?
I'd like to put together a CD with all of these wonderful Hype Video's for game day!
August 28th, 2011 at 8:56 AM ^
Great video, loved seeing some of the downfield blocks by wide receivers and backs such as Roundtree, Shaw and Smith.
August 28th, 2011 at 9:15 AM ^
Best Hype video I have see this year.....great job!
August 28th, 2011 at 9:18 AM ^
best one yet for this year. Love the Bo references.
August 28th, 2011 at 9:24 AM ^
best hype video I've ever seen. Seriously. The production value makes me think you are in the business. Strong work.
August 28th, 2011 at 9:44 AM ^
Really liked the video! It makes me even more impatient for, dare I say it, this coming Saturday!
August 28th, 2011 at 10:35 AM ^
Agreed with the others. This hype video cannot be beat.
August 28th, 2011 at 10:59 AM ^
CHills!!! That is what I got!! Can not Wait for Saturday. Damn fiance is making me go to a birthday party for a 1 year old that stars at 3pm....I have already told father of said 1 year old that I need a tv in secluded area...My time will be spent in the garage! GO BLUE!
August 28th, 2011 at 10:59 AM ^
Best i've seen yet, really gave me chills
August 28th, 2011 at 11:04 AM ^
Great video and well done. Love the Bo speech that should be played everywhere because it is so true.
August 28th, 2011 at 11:11 AM ^
NOW I am ready. Fantastic job on the video!
August 28th, 2011 at 11:25 AM ^
I may as well quit work for the next few weeks until we get back from "under the lights". Best hype video yet. Keep up the great work. The talent on this board is what makes it so great and stand out from all others. Thank you!
August 28th, 2011 at 11:26 AM ^
sure as shit hyped me up! I have flag football to go play now. I'm going to tear it up thanks!
August 28th, 2011 at 11:29 AM ^
If my erection last's for more than 4 hours, who do I call??? Great video
August 28th, 2011 at 11:44 AM ^
Very well done. Love the first two minutes.
August 28th, 2011 at 11:56 AM ^
Superb, I especially liked the beginning. I know this board doesn't have stickies but I'd love to see a thread, or maybe a diary, with all of this year's hype videos embedded. Perhaps someone more technically proficient can help us out.
August 28th, 2011 at 11:58 AM ^
i've watched countless michigan hype videos. a lot of good, some bad but this was by far and away the best one thats ever been created. it has high quality footage, seamless blending of the past and present and represents every part of michigan football that is great. not trying to get hyperbolic but it's more of a work of art than a hype video. really outstanding work, you should be very proud of yourself.
August 28th, 2011 at 12:00 PM ^
2:10-2:18 was the best part of the video, everything else was amazing as well. Best hype video I've seen in my lifetime.
August 28th, 2011 at 12:04 PM ^
It was a great video all the way up until you had the running back from Friday Night Lights sign off Bo's speech. Great work with the audio and visual effects, definitely the most professional video put out this off season.
August 28th, 2011 at 12:59 PM ^
Thanks for the new pre-game ritual! I love Better Son/Better Daughter, but it is time for something new to go along with the new era.
EDIT: Does anyone know if there are any reasons we could not show this at the area alumni bar on game days?
August 28th, 2011 at 2:50 PM ^
Showing the action through the arches and reflected in the windows at the Big House, along with much of Bo's "The Team" speech, set this one apart from most others I've seen.
As someone else mentioned, the Shaw play vs. tSIO was a great choice. Hope he stays healthy b/c he could be special.
August 28th, 2011 at 2:59 PM ^
Reminds me of something I would do . . . if I knew how to do anything.
