Day in the Life Description
Throughout my childhood, my biggest hobby was shooting hoops at the local park. As a result, I made many friends and really developed basketball skills. For my Day in a Life video, I want to show what my typical shootaround would be if I were to recreate it (which I will).I want to clarify that I do NOT want my skills (or lack thereof, depending on how good you think I think I am) to be the central subject of the feature. My work ethic is. I want to show the audience that hard work pays off. I might not have been skilled enough to play for our beloved Panthers, but I am still able to shoot around without being terribly embarassed.
I plan on shooting this at the outdoor courts on Alequippa St. on top of "The Hill" on campus. Usually, nobody is there, and it would be a parallel landscape to what it is like at my park so long ago.
Highlighting the different types of skills I practiced is important. Some people don't realize the versatility of a basketball player. I will execute shooting and dribbling drill throughout the segment.
Originally, I wanted to have a friend come along and play games against me, but after thinking it over, I was by myself A LOT back then. I pretended I was playing against somebody, even though the nearest person was across the street. If I can incorporate that into my video, that would make for a cool effect. Sports are just as much physical as they are mental, and hopefully, I can convey that with my version of Day in a Life.
