In case you missed it, Twitter has recently introduced video capability, allowing users to get a little more intimate with their followers than a simple 140 characters of text allowed.
And Hockey Night in Canada host George Stroumboulopoulos is on the ground floor.
During this week’s Saturday night broadcast, Strombo took his 619,000-plus followers behind the scenes and onto the studio floor to give them a glimpse into the production of the show – and also to get a message from Don Cherry himself.
Here are some highlights:
Before the broadcast begins, Strombo talks with panelists Elliotte Friedman, Nick Kypreos and Kelly Hrudey. Who’s nervous?
Here’s how voiceovers are done. When you hears George’s voice on the broadcast, but see a scenic shot or a reporter on standby, here’s how it gets done.
The long-time face of the first intermission on Hockey Night in Canada with the new face of the franchise. Strombo struts with Don Cherry and you can tell he really, really wants to get his hands on one of Grapes’ suits.
