My time with the Philadelphia 76ers was a journey of diverse creative roles, from ideation to execution. As a shooter, editor, and animator, I contributed to various projects including season intro videos for the arena and engaging content for different divisions such as in-game entertainment, ad sales, and community. My portfolio below showcases a selection of the work I’ve done, reflecting my commitment to enhancing the Sixers’ fan experience.

Arena Game Introduction Videos

Welcome to the Moment

This video opened the 76ers games for half 2017-2018 season, the Sixers made some big moves and the process had came to an end, this was the moment the city and fans had been waiting for. I played many roles in this project from initial creative direction, producing the set, shooting the players, creating the composition plates we used to put on the video wall for the players to stand in front of, audio direction and editing the video together. It was alot of work, but I really enjoyed every moment of it.

I Run My City

This video opened the 2nd half of the 76ers games for 2017-2018 up until playoffs. I wanted something to hype the crowd up, amp the players on the team up, and really showcase how the team was playing and feeling at the moment. To help me get my vision out I linked with my brother DJ Rob Dinero to create the audio bed for me, knowing that if I told him a few of the samples I herd in my head he would produce a fire track and that he did. This video was re-posted by House of Highlights and has been viewed more 1,264,978 times, with thousands of positive reviews when it first dropped. I always think back and laugh about how I cut this video while on flight to Paris for vacation, promising more work once we land, well after the upload at least.

On the Big Screens

Sometimes I finish an edit I think is fire and ill play it over and over on my computer monitor or my phone and ill be hyped the whole time, but to see my edit on the big screens was a different experience, one that I enjoy every time I get to check out a game and my work at the same time.

DP on set for Intro shoot

This was a fun day shooting the players for the intro video, it was during 76ers media day, so we had quick sessions with each player. I shot with an Arri Amira and my B cam was a Canon C300. A few weeks prior to this I shot all the players on green doing different movements so I could composite footage behind them and then put it on the video wall for when I shot them on media day again. I absolutely loved the end result and was able to use these hero shots thru out the season.

My highlight on House of Highlights!

When I found out this was featured on there site, I had three immediate thoughts! OMG look at the numbers , OMG look at the love and OMG how the hell did they get the video! It was the same night it aired at the stadium so it was an overwhelming feeling of joy to see my work at the game and receive so much good feed back in person and online.
