Phileas Fogg Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Is it just me or is there a lot less media content this season? Seems to be the minimum possible.. Highlights, 3 interviews pre match and 2/3 post match..In previous seasons there's been lots more. Interviews with Burt, 'fun' features..the only 'extra curricular' stuff I can remember this season aside from tour is the interview with Wade.I feel our media strong has been really good last few years, but with YouTube.. Snapchat etc even more prominent it's even easier to create new innovative content.. Even BcfcSnap seems to have lost a bit of zip this season.. Anyone else noticed this?

RumRed Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Always easier to produce when you're winning every week I guess.Any 'fun' stuff would get completely over analysed o here after each loss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Just an example, but Rovers had a video today of all the players finding out their ratings on fifa and having a laugh etc, just the small things can make a big difference, you'd expect City players are all likely playing it anyway.

Buckeyed Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I think they are being sensitive to the general mood at the moment - fun and laughter is well received when the club are doing well, but at the moment (as others have already said) any fun and games will lead to suggestions they aren't concentrating enough on the football.

I mean other things, chats with Tinnion.. Burt.. As well as the fun stuff. I'd love to hear about Tinnion's work over last few months for example. Other clubs.. Southampton, Man City.. Have fantastic media content. They should be the benchmark especially if it's free/easy to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 As an example, I still can't figure out whether our Under 21's won or lost 3-2 yesterday! Think the 'Bristol Sport' website either needs to be redesigned to make navigation much simpler or just scrap it and go back to a Bristol City only website. So much for 'Bristol Sport' improving the customer interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowshed Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 PF "Agree, really easy to do and would be popular. I am at a loss to know what our media team is actually up to most days. You could get college or uni film/tv production students to even make us content - it's so easy to do". It would be easy to achieve and could easily have thousands signing up to watch, and use clips. Bristol City do have coaches from the Academy and Community Trust working with Junior clubs and schools.they could share these created clips. Kids in schools and clubs could watch City players perform skills on coaches I pads, and at home. One coach with an association to City does do this. The clips he used were not City players. Meanwhile other clubs are doing similar.There is a lot of scope there for BCFC and its Trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
