Today we are learning how to make a highlight video.
If you cant play a coach doesnt care if you can write a perfect email or you have perfect
grades or you are an eagle scout and can light a fire with two twigs in the middle of a snowstorm
in the Rockies.
Dont get me wrong those things are nice and I wish I had Eagle Scout skills but things
only matter to a college coach if you can play.
A picture may say a thousand words, but a video says if you are legit.
Learn how to make a great highlight video so a coach can see you are legit.
Key Points!
Key Point One.
Dont Hire, Make.Hiring a highlight video company can cost a small fortune.
This is how it typically goes.
A company will charge you money to film a weekend of games.
A weekend…
Thats not a lot of time to get the clips you need.
Yes, there are some good highlight video companies out there, but instead invest that money into
making your own video.
Buy a nice camera and tripod.
If you cant afford it I understand.
Try getting a job to help cover the expenses.
Or film on a phone, but get at least get a tripod for it so its not shaky.
Whatever you do dont film on your Grandmas 10 year old flip phone!
Nana!
Its not 1999!
And seriously you dont have to turn your phone off when you arent using it!
Key Point Two.
Film Lots of Footage.
Film all your games.
Like all of them.
I know this is time consuming, but you want to choose from as much footage as possible
when creating a highlight video.
What you dont want to do is just use okay clips because thats all you got from filming
only a few games.
Politely ask a family member to film for you.
Key Point Three.
Choose an Editing Software.
Use a computer to edit your highlight video.
The easiest editing softwares to use are probably iMovie or Windows Movie Maker.
A more advanced software is something like Final Cut Pro.
Dont use some random app from the google play store thats going to have watermarks on it
and is poor quality.
Key Point Four - The Format, Short and Sweet.
A good format for a great highlight video is to open with your best action clip, then
continue with two to four minutes of individual 10-15 second action clips and end with a contact
information screen.
Key Point Five.
Your Best Action Clip.
Think about it.
When you watch a youtube video if you are bored in the first 10 seconds you probably
stop watching.
Same applies for a coach.
DO NOT be boring.
Put your best action clip first.
If you are an attacking player thats a great goal.
If you are a defender thats a beast mode slide tackle.
Set the hook, then let them enjoy the show!
Key Point Six.
Edit Action Clips.
Continue your video with two to four minutes of ten to fifteen second individual action
clips.
Your better clips should be towards the early part of your video.
DO NOT, put bad clips in.
Just you kicking the ball with no purpose is a bad clip.
Dont even use it as filler.
Each clip should be about 10 to 15 seconds.
Start the clip with moving action, then pause it.
Have an arrow or a shadow appear to alert the coach where you are on the field.
You know where you are, but they dont.
Add something to show them.
Making it easy for them to watch you makes it easier for them to recruit you.
Then un pause the clip, show the main point of the clip and then cut a few seconds after.
For example if you steal the ball on a slide tackle and immediately get up and make a simple
pass out of the back that is a great action clip.
Dont bore the coach by continuing the clip for 10 more seconds of you just jogging and
adjusting your shorts.
To be clear you should have a few seconds of action leading up to main point of your
clip and a few seconds of action after the main point of your clip.
A coach wants to see a little build up and they want to see what you do after you make
a play.
Key Point Seven.
Contact Information.
End your video with specific information on screen for you.
Like your full name, height, weight, date of birth, position, team, number, and contact
info.
This information should also be included in the video description.
The point of your highlight video is to get coaches interested in you.
Make sure they have all your information so they can easily contact you!
Key Point Eight.
Keep It Simple.
Coaches spend countless hours looking through highlight videos for potential prospects.
Keep it short, simple, and effective.
Dont spend time trying to make your video flashy with distracting music or fancy cutaways
and spinning in and out transitions.
Key Point Nine.
DO NOT USE BAD LANGUAGE.
Choose your music wisely.
Dont have bad language in your song of choice.
Key Point Ten.
Storage.
Buy an external hard drive and backup your footage.
You dont want to loose all your footage and finalized highlight videos.
Be safe and back it up.
Key Point Eleven.
Hosting.
The easiest place to host your video is on youtube.
Create a channel that is something like Youtube.com/YourName not Youtube.com/BetterThanMessi.
Once your video is on youtube it can be embedded in other places like your college recruiting
profile.
Exercise to Practice An exercise to practice on your own is editing
simple highlight clips.
Take a few game clips or just clips of you at the field training and practicing editing.
Get comfortable with your editing software.
Pro Tip!
Take the time to learn how to edit on your editing software.
Watch tutorials, read through user tips and study game highlights from the pros.
Notice how long each clip is and how quick it cuts to a new clip before a viewer gets
bored.
Second Pro Tip!
Read this book.
Not all of it applies to highlight videos, but it will help you a lot.
All of the Online Soccer Academy editors have to read it as part of their training for OSA.
Whats Wrong!
If your video isnt good be honest with yourself and decide if its your game, the filming style
or the editing style.
If its the editing style start over.
If its the game footage, dont use it.
Film more.
A highlight video is you marketing yourself.
In the business world just because you are marketing doesnt mean you are creating sales.
Same applies for highlight videos.
Just because you have a highlight video doesnt mean you will be recruited.
Make sure you have a good one!
Dont settle for less!
Bonus Tip!
Film yourself training!
In your highlight video include action shots of you in training.
Or you in shooting practice or a clip or two of you hitting a goal kick to half field.
Second Bonus Tip!
You can have more than one highlight video.
So keep gathering footage and keep releasing more videos.
Instead of one 6 minute video, have two three minute videos.
Hope you enjoyed this Online Soccer Academy video!
It was fun being a guest OSA Coach!
