Is there an "official" MGoBlog hype video?

Submitted by Baloo_Dance on

Is there an "official" hype video endorsed by Brian/MGoCommunity?  I've seen a few proposed and shared on MGoBoard.  

 

I need an extra kick start for this weekend.  I know I shouldn't, but I do.

MCalibur's 2010 vid with Drop the World as the music. No link since I'm on my iphone, but just youtube drop the world michigan. I know that doesn't answer your question, but its a great hype video.

The vid put together before the 2009 season with "A Better Son/Daughter" by Rilo Kiley was near perfection. When "and sometimes when you're on, you're really fucking on" hits and the color returns to the video, I can't help but get some goosebumps.

I loved the "All Out - The Lights" video someone on here made sometime ago. Anybody have that link? Awesome. Reminds me of... college... or the weekend as I like to call it now.

I feel like Rilo Kelly was the official video two years ago and last year someone remade it.  That person posted a thread a couple weeks ago taking a poll on whether to keep the same song or change it.  A lot of peopel responded, but I don't think he ever made a video.

 

Anyone know who that was and whether he made a hype video?

 

(I like the non-rap, non-rock hype videos)

 

 

EDIT: His name is "shorts" and this was the thread back in July:

I forget who posted this one, but it's my favorite of the season:

Count me among those who were hoping for one more "Better Son/Daughter", though. Using clips of failings from the previous three seasons for the black and white portion, signifying a transition to not only a new season, but hopefully, an exciting new regime might have been fun.

You are very talented. The effects with the video in the building arches and whatnot are outstanding and the Bo speech overlay is perfect. At 2:10, when all the winged helmets are bouncing in the tunnel, I have to restrain myself from punching a hole through my monitor.

And since I didn't embed the first time...

By the way, I think you've got some video editing skillz. As to the music, I liked Switchfoot when I was younger and haven't heard them in a while. Not sure what the point of saying that was, but WTF, kickoff is in less than thirty hours.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I had fun putting it together. I love when the video matches up with the lyrics to a song but I might have gone a little overboard. When I got done I felt like there were so many highlights that I still wanted to add. Maybe a longer song next time? As for the video quality, I was just using some free software so that could be part of the problem. But (if anyone still reads this thread) where do all you video wizards get your highlight clips? Do you just look for the 1080p stuff on youtube or download the whole games? That was the hardest part for me, finding the video to start with. I probably started with a lot of low quality clips.

There is not an official one this year. It fell through the cracks what with wedding and defectionpalooza. There will be an endorsed hype video.
