Any Given Sunday is listed as a Drama under it’s genre. I would definitely classify it as such because of how much emotion is in the movie.
The three interesting facts that I found about the movie are as follows:
1 – From an editing point of view, there are over 3000 cuts in the film.
2 – For the scenes during a football game, production asked local schools to participate as extras for the film, including Lake Stevens Middle School in Miami, Florida. For each shot the crowd was asked to move around so that each section looked filled, in empty seats cardboard cutouts were placed in seats with balloons attached to them so that they would seem in motion.
3 – The film was shot in Miami, Florida and Irving, Texas. Miami’s Orange Bowl stadium represents the home of the fictitious American football team, the Miami Sharks.
For my montage, I decided to go with two clips from Any Given Sunday that really captured the elements that I had learned from viewing the editing techniques. One of them was to have audio continue without the voice moving. That can be found in the first set of clips. The second clip that I used had a bunch of different editing techniques in it. It had angles from below and above and the use of slow motion. I hope you enjoy!
