hightlight film importance 

One of the most important evaluation tools for a college football coach to determine an athlete’s ability at the next level is his highlight film. A college coach’s opportunity to evaluate players has been severely limited due to the fact they can’t be at Combines, NFL Player Development Camps, Passing Jamborees and there is no spring football for High Schools in the Mid Atlantic Region – events that were widely attended by college coaches during the Evaluation Period in May. During my experiences as a college football coach and working with families with Playmaker Recruiting, I realized two things:

1. Parents / Athletes do not understand how a college coach evaluates a player at the next level or what they look for in a highlight tape.

2. Parents / Athletes were paying a video company a lot of money to make a highlight film, upselling a ton of add on’s that have nothing to do with a college coaches evaluation of that player at the next level.

A college football coach is inundated with hundreds of highlight films. He does not have the time to watch a 10 / 20 minute highlight film. He will make an evaluation in the first 3 minutes if your son can play at that level.

do you know...?

1. What do college coaches look for in a player for each position - OL / LB / DB / WR / QB?

2. How do college coaches evaluate a player at the next level?

3. Did you know that every college has a rating sustem for each position?

4. What if your son is playing one position for his Hish School out of need, but is projected to play a different position in college?

5. Does slow motion, music, stats, cut-ins of different plays where each play does not end, video special effects HELP or HURT a highlight film?

The difference between an AVERAGE highlight film and a GREAT highlight film could mean the difference between your son being recruited or not recruited.

why playmaker productions...?

1. I will go through play by play and evaluate / rate each individual play using the same evaluation system I used as a Division I Recruiting Coordinator.  I will then rearrange / compose up to a 3 minute highlight (30 plays) film using arrows for each play so he is easy to locate with his best impact plays from the begining to end.

2. My experience as a Recruiting Coordinator at the Division I level where I was responsible for overseeing the identification, evaluation and recruitment of all prospective student athletes.

3. I recruited a 2nd Round Draft Pick in the 2004 NFL Draft.

4. I recruited a 4th Round Draft Pick in the 2007 NFL Draft.

5. I recruited a 2007 Walter Payton Award Candidate.

6. I recruited a 2007 1st Team Associated Press All American.

7. Over 16 years of evaluating high school football players at the college level.

8. My films are to the point and incredibly impactful.

9. I do not upsell special effects and add-ons.  What you pay for is what you get...a powerful highlight film capturing the best your son has to offer.

testimonies

"The amount of interest my son recieved after Donnie did our highlight film was night and day.  Donnie took our 9 minute highlight film and made it into a 3-minute display of great plays.  He sent it directly to his college clients where it was viewed immediately by a lot of them.  He provided exposure that we would not have received on our own.  There is no price for the $250 investment we made."  - Old Mill High School, Parent

"All the colleges were requesting senior film on my son as soon as possible.  Once contacting Donnie, he was able to turn it around ASAP, made his film a .wmv link that we were able to email out to 100's of colleges immediately and gave our son an edge for his senior film to be evaluated and be recruited."  - West Springfield High School, Parent
