Please indulge me here, I'm bored and really missing hockey so I thought I might share a memorable Flames experience for myself and my son from this past season. Back in February of this year when the world was normal and we could still do things like attend hockey games in large crowds my (then) 15 y.o son, Owen was invited by the Calgary Flames to attend a game and shoot, edit and produce a ~70 sec. hype video for the team. The Flames also offered to show my son's video on the Saddledome jumbotron at the next home game as part of their Jr. Flames promotion.
Needless to say, my son (who is really working hard to build a freelance videography business) was so excited for this opportunity (and I, being a lifelong Flames fan was frankly... starstruck). The day of the shoot, I could not have been more impressed with the Flames organization, we got the star treatment and my son was afforded access to the team, the players and Flames game day production staff behind the scenes that just proved to me again what a great organization they are. Anyways, here is my son's video that he shot and edited that night. It was shown on the Jumbotron 10 days later at the Family Day game v. the Ducks. Truly one of my fondest Flames memories from the last 40 years.
