Great video.

I'm not a professional in video editing but I did grow up in music and have in been in ensembles from small bands to orchestras throughout my teens and twenties. The biggest thing that stands out to me is that you build and build and build to a pinnacle that turns to discussing doubt....which should leap into the stratosphere in terms of video clips or music. So the only thing missing to me is that peak of excitement. Between Bayless, and Cam speaking about the Lombardi could've been huge, but I kind of felt that let down as opposed to a peak. Often in music, as you flow to the high notes, you will crescendo and hit that top note at the loudest point. In emotional music (this is an emotional video), the build starts at the beginning of the piece, and the loudest point is usually halfway to 3/4 of the way through.

Side note: For anyone doubting the teams focus, or Cam's (which should permeate throughout), the end of the video where Cam is speaking says it all.

As I said, there isn't much I know about video editing, but to me. To take this video to, what I would consider, a professional level, the pinnacle needs to happen, either close to the end, the end, or the middle of the video depending on the length. 

I think for this video, in spirit of the hype attempting to be generated, more highlights from the Hawks game would've been appropriate. But that's just me. Still much much better than anything I could put together as whole.

I've thought about getting into this but i'm unsure of the software to use or the way to extract music and video from however many hours of game and other footage.

This is inspiring, powerful video, LilSmitty. One more game in our march to the Lombardi Trophy. I can't wait to see what you do with that.....
