Apologies for shameless self-promotion, but I was notified today
by our diligent content controller Rachel Holzaepfel that we surpassed
4,000 videos in our ever-expanding library.
From our first videos of Peyton Manning posted in September 2007 to our most recently added Nike Know This Channel,
sponsored by the Nike Trainer 1, we are committed to offering you the
best training, nutrition and recruiting advice on the web.
Our initial hope was to conduct a couple training/interview shoots per
month and slowly build our library, but due to viewer demand and
popularity of the first few videos, the project quickly took off.
During certain months, each content director is on the road once or
twice per week, gathering the best footage with the top athletes and
coaches in the business. Sometimes it’s extremely tiring jet-setting
from one city to the next and living in the airport (yes, I have
personally slept in a few airports after a couple shoots, but I have
never showered in the sink), but it’s always worth it.
After the footage is captured on tape, our hard-working video editors
at Moonstruck Productions break down the raw footage into separate
videos, thus beginning a three-step editing process. Once the videos
are flawless and approved, they’re delivered fresh to the site for you
to enjoy. It’s a long process, but we make it look easy.
A special thanks to you, our STACK Athletes, for making our videos some
of the most respected in the athletic community. Your desire to become
a better athlete fuels our desire to keep providing high quality
content.
Don’t forget, if you have a question for our Friday Mailbag, always feel free to contact us.
