Integrated Content Editor Carly Rickards: Eversley posterizes Mamadou Ndiaye
I love this video for so many reasons. Obviously, the actual content of the video is awesome — even I can recognize that, despite the fact that I still can’t figure out how football works. But the behind-the-scenes process of this video is also awesome because it’s the perfect example of the kind of integration we’ve been working toward this year. Alexis Chetcuti, who’s on the broadcast team, shot the video. Then Stephan Teodosescu, an editor on the print team, and I found it, edited it and got it online. And then all of you watched it. And it has more than 13,000 views. So for its content and for its little journey to you guys, this video is awesome.
