Stanley Cup at Centene Community Ice Center
Construction crews got a surprise one morning as the Stanley Cup visited the Centene Community Ice Center. The social piece is driven by on-screen text—and, optionally, an interview. Social recaps allow for an event to be covered without having to create a full feature. The style—I created from the initial recap—was to add an adjustment layer with a slight black vignette and blue hue. Interview subjects would be center-framed and look directly into camera, which gave an informal feel befitting of a social piece and allowed for a better composed shot when edited on a 1:1 frame size.
