Jewels 2020 Team Video
Meet your 2020 Jacksonville Jewels! I had the pleasure of directing, filming, and editing this fun video for the Giants Dance Team. With some extra shots taken by local videographer Terrance Tyson, the team and I had a wonderful time shooting at various locations across downtown Jacksonville. The main goal of this video was to introduce the new team and make each dancer feel highlighted and recognized.
This video was showcased over all of the Giants and Jewels social media accounts. On game day, it was displayed across the Jumbotron at the Vystar Veterans Memorial multiple times throughout the game.
Orange Park Mall
As one of the Giant’s amazing partners and sponsors, the Orange Park Mall located just west of Orange Park, Florida proudly displays a GIANTS installation. I had the pleasure of assisting with this project in creating/updating banners with current players and dancers. This project was installed in March 2020.
Jewels & Gems Dance Teams
Say hello to your two dance teams for the Jacksonville Giants, the Gems and Jewels. Wanting to represent these teams with current dancers, I selected seven girls; five Jewels and two Gems. These individual pictures were taken during the teams’ group photoshoots and were then all individually masked out to layer each dancer on top of the previous and build this team banner.
Coach Banner
Making sure to pay tribute to the team’s leader, Coach Jerry Williams poses with 3 Championship rings for his personal banner.
Player Banner
MVP players Bernard and Jermaine were selected to be included on one of the banner installations for the Orange Park Mall. Both images were selected from the best action shots and edited to fully showcase the GIANTS power and energy.
10th Anniversary Game Program
Highlighting the dance teams for the 10th Anniversary of the Jacksonville Giants organization, I was in charge of creating this dancer page for the program. This 8.5 x 11 page included both teams, as well as a few of the Giants top sponsors at the bottom of the page.
Hundreds of these programs were printed to be handed out to fans at the Championship Ring game at the Vystar Veterans Memorial Arena for the January 25th game.
