Our Process
Phase 1: Game Planning
This is our opportunity to get to know you as a student-athlete, so we can best tell your story through video. By completing a 30-minute video call with us, you can share your goals and aspirations for both college and athletics, so we can create the perfect college recruiting video for your interests.
Phase 2: Film Submission
Our Student-Athlete Package anticipates that you already have film of your games and have identified highlights you would like us to consider for the video. We allow for digital submission of your video clips so that we can help athletes across the country with their video needs.
Phase 3: Video Production
Now that you've done your homework, we're ready to help you pass this admissions test! Within 21 days of film submission, you can expect to digitally receive your college recruiting video for review. Don't worry, we allow one round of edits on your video if you find anything you would like changed.
