- Erie Highlight Reel Website Versions -

Erie Highlight Reel Version 1 – October 2007 

This is the initial website for Erie Highlight Reel. We started out filming a few games for JRLSports and realized the potential with filming the athletes in our area. We created Erie Highlight Reel Version 1  in October 2007, it contained about 7 pages and had about 5-10 videos equalling about one hour of content. 

 

We started out filming some high school games, and got credentialed for Pitt Panthers Football. This served as the perfect platform to get our name out into the community. Jim LeCorchick would bring us on the radio for a weekly update and WSEE did a story about the company. By the time football season ended, we found ourselves already filming basketball games and growing by the day. Once one person on the team finds the highlights, the whole team finds the highlights. It was around this time the Otters found us on JRLSports and were interested in highlights for their website. 


Erie Highlight Reel Version 2 – 2008 

This is the second version of our website. We were growing and becoming more popular than ever before. We were covering so many events we needed a more robust video system than we were previously using. Some of our clients needed their videos to be syndicated to their website and we needed to be able to keep each sport separately in its own video system. We decide to go with the Bright Cove Platform. This platform is widely used to deliver video content from such companies as Time Magazine, The Weather Channel, Showtime and many more. 

 


Erie Highlight Reel Version 3 – January 2010 

Here we are. Third version of the website, over 1700 sports videos from in and around our region totaling more than 50 hours of coverage.
