It was longer than the rest due to the buildup that showed the champions over the years. This was hands down the best intro video of EVO 2013. Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition ver. These are played before the Top 8 Final of every main game to get the viewers hyped for the matches. EVO 2013ĮVO 2013’s hype intro videos were such a big step up from those of EVO 2012, so I was really looking forward to the ones for this year. Here’s one he did for Season’s Beatings V: Redemption from 4 years ago, and it still looks pretty good now. You can find the ones he did for prior EVOs on YouTube. These videos were all produced by Seth Mussey, an Emmy Award winning videographer whose skills are apparent in videos he puts together for the FGC.
If I missed anything, that’s because I didn’t like it. NOTE: The following videos include only the ones that I liked. I like getting into the little details in video editing and effects, so I would watch stuff like this and others like intros for StarCraft: Brood War tournaments in Korea such as OSL and MSL (I’ll write something about that in the future). I’m particularly interested in these as a developing amateur videographer.
I personally am into these videos because I’m both a fan of fighting games and videography, so I would like to share my enthusiasm for this little part of EVO with you. Before every Top 8 Final for each game on the main stream, they play an intro video to get viewers hyped up. Let me share something from EVO other than the games that I look forward to each year. It has taken me a long while, but I’ve finally put my thoughts down on this little piece of fascination.
