Alouettes pregame video

[Firstandgoal]

Whenever the Als are at home, they play this video reflecting our history and the current teams players. I was wondering if anybody knew what the accompanying music is?

I was hoping they would post it on their website, i love what they did, real nice.

I'll be honest I have NO CLUE !

you should ask the Als at info@montrealalouettes.com or on their Facebook page.

Usually they provide the answer....

[Firstandgoal]

That was fast. The Alouettes administration told me it was "Guardian at the Gates" from Avatar.

Cool!
You didnt happen to ask if they had a downloadable version of that video?

[Firstandgoal]

I asked if they planned to upload the video to the website. I'll post if/when I get their reply.

[sectionu2]

Thanks firstandgoal, i know they posted a few in their video section.

[Firstandgoal]

The last reply i got was that the media relations department had been talking about putting it on the website, but no decision has yet been made. One can only hope they decide to post it there.

[ro1313]

I hope so, I really like it

Thanks for letting us know

I'll be honest, I'm disappointed the Als aren't using their You Tube channel more, and they have 2 of 'em:

http://www.youtube.com/user/AlouettesdeMontreal
http://www.youtube.com/user/AlouettesMobile

They could put everything on You Tube & even get paid for it by clicks for their own footage, fans could add a Favorite to it & it will "share it " on their channel also, which would create more visibility....creates less bandwidth/resources for your own website, etc....

Lalonde was saying in an interview this week they were working more with Social media (which is good to get the new kids in), but by having videos split into 2 locations, their own website & You Tube, it's not efficient IMHO.

if you check the Cahoon tribute on Als site (http://en.montrealalouettes.com/video/index/id/20099), heck the video is in 3x4 format...I'm not talking about the game footage, I'm talking about the presentation itself with Cahoon & his family on the stage...

I always see those 2 guys wearing yellow bib written Alouettes in their back, carrying the camera & making game shots...I'm sure the camera can do 16x9 (HD) .....heck even my iPhone can film in 16x9 in HD....

I'll give them benefit of the doubt (new org), but the Concordia Arts/Communication student in me is just shaking his head in "amazement".....

[sectionu2]

The footage was made 3x4 for the jumbo screen, merging both they dd it 3x4.

[XGamer]

Ok,

why is this Calvillo breaking record video/congratulations in 16x9 on their website:

http://fr.montrealalouettes.com/video/index/id/21291

it was presented shown on the scoreboard also (heck it's even under the Scoreboard section ob the als multimedia tab....)
