I assisted the creative production on this project alongside my good friend Stefano Bonku aswell as our amazing podcast crew full of talented and creative hosts. To me, More Than Ball is a culmination of everything that makes basketball great - Culture, Fashion, Art Music & Entertainment and deep appreciation for the sport that has been around for over 100 years.

Our mission is to provide a unique platform for women to discuss all things related to basketball culture, news, and updates in one centralized location. We aim to elevate the visibility of the WNBA and its players, while also sharing the hosts own personal experiences as women and fans of the sport. Through an innovative audio and visual approach, we strive to create an unparalleled experience that goes beyond just the game itself.

What do we need to make this work? Some cameras, a handful of microphones, a shoot location and last but not least some hosts! So let me introduce you to the amazing group of women that helped bring this vision to life.

Basketball pros, analysts, coaches, and fashion enthusiasts. They bring a wealth of experience and diverse perspectives to the 'MoreThanBall' show, making it a must-watch for fans.

An exploration into the casts thoughts and feelings towards the upcoming show

This is where the true test began. As a two-man team, Stefano and I had to ensure that we were working efficiently and effectively without sacrificing quality.

To enhance the visual appeal and quality of the video, we employed a multi-angle approach by recording the scene from three distinct camera angles. The result is a more immersive experience that draws the viewer in and enhances their engagement with the content. Additionally, this technique allows for greater flexibility in the editing process, as we can seamlessly transition between shots and create a more polished final cut.

Luckily, as this is a podcast recording - A more relaxed and natural visual experience so not much effort was required aside from Audio editing. But we did want to create some cool details to add to the overall production quality. Things like titles, transitions, player stats & more were created to make the video feel more "Alive" - See below.
