Are you looking for new, unique ways to showcase student-athletes? Are you looking to create a promotional video that features your team's athletes in a new light?

Kristin Giannas, a telecommunications and news broadcasting major at the University of Florida, recently produced a tremendous Florida Gators remake of Michael Jackson's hit song/video "Thriller". Giannas worked closely with members of several University of Florida athletics teams (gymnasts, softball, baseball, cheerleaders, Dazzlers) to create a 5:50 video that is destined to become an online hit.

The video serves as a great example of a unique way that collegiate athletic departments can drive buzz and position their student-athletes (especially those competing in non-traditional sports) in a new light.
