Cubs 2010 – Thanks For A Fun Season
TLL AAA Cubs 2010
I put together a quick video recap of the TLL AAA Cubs 2010 season.
This season was dominated by rain. We had more rainouts and rescheduled games than I can ever recall. Very wet spring.
Here is the video:
For the technically-minded (geeks), here’s a little more info on “the making of” the video. Stills were from a couple of different cameras. One of them was a Pentax K200 (not sure about the other one).
The music, one of my favorite parts, was from Todd Rundgren’s No World Order CD. I thought it was appropriate since Reed is a TR fan:
Reed and Todd Rundgren
Video composition was constructed using:
- Adobe Photoshop for image editing, logo deconstruction/reconstruction into PSD format
- A custom app from Todd Rundgren used to remove vocals from the soundtrack
- Apple Soundtrack Pro for editing/cleanup and normalization of audio files
- Apple Motion 4 for image segments and logo animation
- Final Cut Pro for final composition
- Apple Compressor for rendering
SoundTrack Pro
Then there were all those video segments….each put together with Motion 4. I hadn’t ever done a spinning logo animation, but it was pretty simple in motion once I had the logo deconstructed into layered pieces to work with. While a daunting program initially, this program makes a lot of sense.

Then final composition using Final Cut Studio, with rendering in Compressor:

I had a bit of fun putting together. Enjoy.
