Gatorade REPLAY – Easton v Phillipsburg
April 1st, 2009 | Published in Commercial | 3 Comments
I’ve been working on this amazing project on and off for about two months now and the project will culminate on April 26 when the game is played. I’m shooting the stills for the project, but videos and some more information can be found here. Gatorade has invaded the towns of Easton, Pennsylvania and Phillipsburg, New Jersey (one of the longest high school football rivalries in the country, but certainly the most intense/passionate) and given athletes from a 1993 game that resulted in a tie, the chance to replay that game. The players are working with doctors, trainers, scientists and the community to make this dream happen. Stay posted for updates to the site, new episodes are being produced, filmed and edited all month.
UPDATE * April 26, 2009
Phillipsburg defeated Easton on April 26, 2009. The weather was insanely hot for April, high of 88 degrees I believe, which seems doable compared to the frame I shot of the thermometer on the field reading 120+ degrees. ThankfullyGatorade was putting on the event so everyone was hydrated properly. The project was awesome and a perfect fit for me and my skill set. Below are some tear sheets from the game day program, a tight edit of the two-month documentary project is linked here.
