PrintWell I kept including pieces of it in my earlier fanshot before I decided to put it together into anything, but I've spent a very significant ammount time on this now so I can't resist making a fanpost, sorry
Well, I made it in Adobe After Effects. Each clip is from a photo, such as this one for hamilton, and just taken from there with Photoshop and AE.
Youtube is having some crazy HD audio issues so view the HD at vimeo, though I do appreciate youtube comments/ratings.
Here is a downloadable copy if you feel so inclined.

Wow
This needs to be on TV. Great work.

So I’m not going to say anything at all.
Is my mother the greatest or what?"

This is great!

heh, yeah.. needs a rangers logo or ball somewhere
nice, and thanks as always.
the preceding post was a great success.
Alright
I’ve got two different ones… I added a hat and a ball, and on the second I added the Rangers logo as bling.
I think the bling might be a bit much, but I’m not sure. Second opinion anyone?

Of what in particular?
This same commercial setup with different players? Probably not unless I had some real reason to. Or I get really bored. If we sign sheets I’ll add him =p
I will inevitably do more rangers graphics/art stuff though, thats kind of a constant.
the preceding post was a great success.
Thanks for all the comments!
This is the first thing I’ve put on youtube, does anyone know if you can update a video without losing views/comments (not that I have any)?
Fixed several small glitches and improved some timing/audio, but I don’t want it to be a new page..
the preceding post was a great success.
I wish I had the photoshop talents of DaShep..
I’d do me up an image of Nolan Ryan on a chariot with a whip. Kevin Millwood pulling it (sweating profusely) maybe holding onto his golf clubs and perhaps Robin Ventura’s head in a headlock in Ryan’s non-whip hand.

Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

Pretty Awsesome Stuff.... For sure.
I am on my way to the Cowboy game, but that just got me fired up for same BASEBALL.
Nice work, up high.
:::Topic updated to include a download link:::
slightly tweaked version, casually watching it there might not be obvious differences but I cleaned up some weird things (black edges on a baseball, could see some of wash behind himself, stuff like that) and adjust the audio. plus no sync issue.
the preceding post was a great success.
Greatness
Your skeeyillz continue to impress. Maybe good ol’ Chuck can get this on the Jumbo-Tron this coming year.
Can’t wait for any new .gif’s on the GameDay Threads (and of course my fave the Cruz Missile .gif) to make their debut…Damn I can’t wait for the season to start!
What's the rumpus?
Awesome Work
You should email that to chuck morgan.

The next person that apologizes for posting awesome stuff [this is the definition] is going to get a kick to the taint.
Nothing pithy here. Please move long.
Absolutely outstanding.
But that’s like thanking the water company for a glass of water. DShepp just does work.

Incredible, nice man.

And it also made me a bit sad to hear Victor's voice at the beginning.

But, it’s missing a good pitcher.

The completely disjointed Davis image
just about killed me. That seriously needs to be your profile image.
Just excellent
I hope Chuck Morgan sees it. I think he’d like it.

hey dshep
do you have one place where all your stuff is concentrated or where some of it is
like photobucket or anything?

KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.
well
What I’ve been wanting to do is make a website for all that stuff and an occasional blog and other ideas I have, actually have done some work getting it prepared and have stored up a few things I havnt shown, but I’m currently stuck on picking a domain name =p
I closed my photobucket from public access for a couple reasons, though I might open it since its better organized now. If I dont make the website.
the preceding post was a great success.
Website domain
How about “behondtheawesomenessofDShep.com”?
;)
"I´d like to apologize in advance for anything that I may say or do that could be construed as offensive as I slowly go NUTS."
great stuff.
They should give you a job.
"Was this really necsarry?" - cowpoke/hurler hurley
Yeah, this is really awesome
I want to see more too… but I understand there really is a limit to how much you’d want to do it, or even really be able to do with it. It is remarkable though. Definitely belongs on TV.

hey drew
I have a feeling that you are one of those lucky guys that is going to be able to make a nice living doing something that you really love. You are really talented. Keep up the good work.
Don't believe the hype about sloppy seconds. They ain't bad.
