Brad Smith

This week I looked at MediaBistro from Youtube and looked at a video on someone’s media beat about a NFL player who is into fashion.  The players name was Brad Smith, who is a wide receiver and kick return player for the Philadelphia Eagles.  I thought it was interesting doing a sit down interview with a pro football player to find out more about his personal life rather than his professional life.  The interview was very good, it was around two minutes and 19 seconds, which is an ideal time to do an interview.  They also had B-roll that included pictures so that the interview wasn’t two talking heads the entire time, because then it would be boring.

            I liked learning about Smith’s personal life, and the person doing the interview did a great job at capturing Smith’s character with his answers.  You saw his personality in his answers, and saw a different side of him that you may not have thought he had.  When he was talking about Men’s Health and the experience he had, it looks like he has more fun with fashion than he does with football.  He also talked about a clothing line he is coming out soon with for babies that he’s done with his wife.  All of this information was probably new to a lot of people, especially football fans that may not have known that Smith has that kind of activity going on in his life.  It was a good interview that really sent out some crucial information.
