2009 San Francisco Giants -- McCovey Chronicles Video



Here it is. It's done.

This is, by no mean, the "official" MCC Video. Since I have not seen one done here in the last 2 years, I decided to take the initiative and make one. I almost scrapped this work in progress when the grand slam happened in Colorado, but I told Natto -- I'll finish this if the Giants ever tie up Colorado in the standings.

Amazing how that works eh?

Nice work. One minor complaint, I think the poster of Pablo scrolled the wrong way, couldn’t read the caption the first time.

How much is 1 Buster Posey? I would like to reserve mine.

Insanity is just a state of mind.

I like the vid. I didn’t really see the Japanese song coming, but oddly that works out really well.

Very cool

I loved the flying doves after the Sue Burns segment; I loved seeing the Rowand poster parody (prompted by my annual contest!); I loved “Double Switches in the 6th.”

I just wish the final scroll had been slower; I couldn’t read all of it. Well done, though!

As someone who previously edited tv commercials and some short programs, I applaud your work David. That was excellent! I thought the music fit particularly well, and I really enjoyed the captions accompanying the photos, although some did go by pretty quickly.

VERY nice work. Kudos!

I noticed that after it was uploaded to youtube :( I corrected it on the youtube “file info” page but it’s probably not worth another 30 min upload to correct it :x

That’s awesome. I sent the link to about 20 people as soon as I watched it. Great work.

Somebody commented that it was funnier after they saw the original little busters - ecstasy video

This is one of the most popular parody video I’ve seen in a long time. Here is the original

There was a contest to do parody based on historical events :

There were a few things I would have liked to see in there, but it was still great and I’m sure it took a long time to make. Great Job!

This video is now even more appropriate with Posey moving up today.

So glad I got it done last night, or else I’d have to do the entire video over :x

Strictly speaking...

Since Posey’s arb clock begins now, pre-ordering costs the Giants more money. But nicely done.

I watched the first couple of seconds and thought to myself, “Why does this sound like the opening to one of those lame anime teen romances?”

After that, the wonders never ceased.

I meant that as a compliment, by the way.

Nice job

Besides the obvious tips of the cap to McC memes, my favorite image was surprisingly the shot of Brian Wilson on the mound with the background turned B&W.

Nice job putting it all together. I hope you’ve inspired the Giants to go out tonight and score more than 1 run.
