Full Sail University creative department has team up with
ESPN for the first time this year, building a studio within the campus. Its
call ESPN sports lab and it’s where students and classes gets to experience
first hand on how ESPN works. ESPN also allows opportunities for students to be
apart of their broadcast production on TV for example, Monday Night Football
opening scene.
The opening for Monday Night Football is now produced and
shot at Full Sail University Live Venue, for the first time ever. This is a
grand opportunity for most students in the film department, show productions
department, and everyone else who wants to be apart of this event. Even I was
granted the opportunity to be apart of this. My class professor who connected
me with a worker from Full Sail University creative department informed me.
Having to work with him before for NBA Orlando Magic’s, I was able to help edit
the video shoots for MNF on Full Sail University campus.
Hank Williams Jr. a famous country singer in the music
industry also performed the opening for Monday Night Football. “Are you ready
for some football”, is the name of the song opening for MNF. The shoot went
perfectly well and when it came to editing the video shoot, even better. After
the first production for MNF was made, ESPN wanted Full Sail University to
permanently be their official production site.
Eventually things went wrong when Hank Williams Jr. appeared
on Fox news as a guest and openly bashed president Obama on national T.V. A
major shock to America and even more disappointment to ESPN and Full Sail
University, he was quickly removed from the show.
This event happened two weeks ago, and since then everyone
was looking for Hank Williams Jr. to apologize. But he didn’t, matter of a fact
he made worse comments towards the situation, which sealed the deal on being
completely drop from MNF. Now ESPN is looking for another artist to perform for
the new MNF opening, and they will still be shooting at Full Sail University.

Jr. at these sites: ESPN.com, Foxnews.com…
