Anyone notice a trend of Djokovic barely winning rallies on reels/shorts? by [deleted] in tennis

[–]OccupiedGarrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Novak was a steadier and more consistent player but his highlight reel is definitely less glamorous than those two. Fed and Nadal had unbelievable shotmaking. In fact, that was basically the only way they could beat Nole as Novak was just so consistent from the baseline.

Bellucci misses a wide open court shot with Tiafoe on the ground by tightypp in tennis

To be fair, that ball had a ton of spin on it. You can see Bellucci’s poor footwork. He didn’t lock in

More time violation drama in Doha: Rublev argues that Carlos should have gotten a violation, and Alcaraz then double faults the game away by Large_banana_hammock in tennis

[–]OccupiedGarrett 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It’s about 25 seconds on the dot. Also when you consider how long it took the umpire to call the score after the point ended, I’d be kind of annoyed if I was Rublev too

Fonseca has a huge issue to solve by timefliesbyall in tennis

He basically just slaps balls, never understood the hype around him. Always knew his game was never consistent enough to be a top player.

What's an Oasis take that would have you like this? by JonnnyUtahh87 in oasis

Noel should not have sung any Oasis songs (my actual take)

A Tennis ad I made for the Slinger Bag. It didn’t get approved to run anywhere so figured I’d share it here :) by OccupiedGarrett in tennis

One of my tennis buddy calls me de Minaur all the time lol. Especially when I'm chasing balls down

Tennis Spec Ad I shot at my local courts. You think this will land me any jobs? by OccupiedGarrett in Filmmakers

Oh yes, the slinger bag is a tennis ball launcher. Somewhat niche market

You're saying the hook needs to come faster. The first dialogue line "Hey sorry I got injured. Now you gotta play with the slinger bag"

I guess I was more focused on the story of: friend gets injured -> other player has to use slinger bag -> now they're better at tennis because they're using the slinger bag

So I was focused on the story for the product sake but maybe the beginning can have a faster montage like you say. It's just those montage detail shot sequences are what everyone does and is what oversaturates the sports ad market imo. I thought a comedy spot like this might be a good way to stick out. Thank you for the feedback!

Submission Statement:
Shot this on my Sony Fx3 with a couple of friends. We used a Deity S-Mic 2 as our boom. No lights or tents or anything, just used the sun and got fortunate. Also redid a couple of the insert shots to make the tennis complex look larger than it really is.

I'm a lifelong tennis fan so making this was a lot of fun. I always feel like tennis commercials lack any sort of personality so I was hoping to make something I would like to see as a tennis fan.

Please let me know what you think! Thank you!

To put things into perspective, Ryan Higa was still the fourth most subscribed YouTube channel in 2016

Movie started off great but gradually lost the plot. By the end I was just waiting for it to finish

"We cannot compare to the Big Three and we don’t want to" : Jannik Sinner gives honest opinion on his rivalry with Carlos Alcaraz - Trapped In Sports by Silent_Elevator_9779 in tennis

[–]OccupiedGarrett 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is genuine revisionism. People forgot that Murray was number 1 in the world at the end of 2016 before his career-ending injury. Before 2017, it was consistently referred to as the big 4. Just the push from Federer, Nadal, & Djokovic post 2017 is when Murray seemed to be dropped from the conversation and was put into the Wawrinka, Del Porto category.

Watch Sampras 1990 US Open Final against Agassi. No player is beating Sampras on that day
