A Sea Of Red

I like the concept and he tough guy imagary, but me personally I like last years intro better. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with it, but from a hype perspective last years intro, got you kinda jacked, at least imo. Thoughts

Thought I was watching swamp people for a second. Doesn't the narrator sound the same

Any chance the video will be posted online?

One that's specific to the Richmond has been posted to the team's youtube page

Thanks...I really think you need a more upbeat song to realy hype the fans up. I mean I liked using "my songs know what you did in the dark" by Fallout Boy last year.

That's very well done but I'm not a huge fan of it, mainly because of music and voiceover. The Fall Out Boy video was good, and the originals from a few years ago was good as well.

That's my issue as well. I think Here Comes the Boom would have been a better song choice

No it wouldn't have.

I like it. Might be different if you guys experienced it in the stadium like I did Saturday night.

I love it! And I agree JK37, seeing it at the stadium and then having the team run out behind the fire spewing guy is just plain awesome!

I think what I don't like is that it focuses so much on the coach and a few players. I'm also extremely picky.

Seen it live in the stadium, and I think if you played both intros last years intro would have you more hype than this years version. Again IMO.

Im planning on being there for homecoming but having seen this year's, I really think the last two years (with showstopper by TobyMac and the song I noted above) fit better and get me more hyped up.

It's a lot different when you see it in person. It reminded me of those pregame videos ESPN will make for a big game that aren't epic with upbeat music but are calm and dramatic but set the mood perfectly.

I like the video. I don't like it as the team intro.

How much did they pay Jack White/Third Man Records to license the song?

Doesn't the intro video always have to be Christian?

I really like the video. The part where Gill drops gets me friggin amped. I do agree that the best video was the one with Fall Out Boy in it. I'm just glad football is here and we're 3-1. Homecoming should be a great atmosphere.

The video is fine. You have to change things up year to year.

Obviously when you have a video of the making of the video you are talking about a higher level of production. The quality speaks for itself. Although game-specific, its shelf life will be longer than one set to a particular song. You can only listen to "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark" so many times before you consider harming yourself.

With this video, you change one word ("Richmond") and you can use it again this year or the next.

The only concern should be that after the big-time video intro that the team goes out and lays an egg. If you are going to be brash you have to back it up on the field.

The intro is too slow paced. This isn't a movie that needs a plot and script; its a minute long intro filled with action clips to hype the crowd. It took 25 seconds to get to the first actual game clip. Practice clips motivate players; game footage of big hits, big plays, and celebrations hype fans.

had to look at this again still think 2013 was better than 2014 even tho depending on the game the 2014 one did do itself justice. The 2013 one just seemed to make you wanna come out the stands and play, at least imo.

Maybe some new uniforms would make it more exciting...I KID!

Seriously though I liked the intro. One thing I would change is hire Sam Elliott record the VO.

Youre probably going to get hammered for that from now until signing day or doomsday...

Only if they were grey on silver uniforms
