Andrea Ward - Olympic Trial 2012 Here is Andrea Ward's participation in the 2012 Olympic Trials in Omaha. Couple of things to note..
1. Yellow lettering behind national anthem singers is projected onto a stream of water falling... Kinda a cool effect... Also during Dana Volmer's award ceremony.
2. Andrea is in Lane 0, Top of screen. She is terribly ill just before her swim... Strep.. On antibiotics and immodium just before her race. She got onto antibiotics the day before by the USA swimming resident doctor. She had no practice since Saturday and had only eaten a little soup... She decided to be a toughie and swim it anyway, even though weak and sick. Note where she comes out after her turn.
3. After her swim video you will see a screen showing that she moved from her seed of 137th to 106th. Pretty good for being so weakened.
4. After that screen... video goes black and you may be are asking, "BTW.. Who won?"... so I show you Dana Volmer's race to answer that question.
(PS... This is my first project with Final Cut X on a Mac, so please forgive any poor editing.) This video features Fred Stumph's excellent video footage.
