Joe Shomaker is young at only 16 but he is one of the most talented editors we have come across in our years of doing this. So naturally when he approached us we had to scoop him up and throw him on the Bring Back the Buzz Blog Team. We just hope the young Padawan takes his talent… not to South Beach BUT to college and we can some day bee blessed to see his work being used by either the Panthers or Hornets!

Here is some of his work for Bring Back the Buzz…

Some of you may remember when Bring Back the Buzz and We Beelieve: Charlotte…take back your Hornets! first began getting media attention about 2 years ago, most of the media thought we were “crazy”. Many reporters and writers were very dismissive of the chances of our entire movement.

One notable exception was a reporter by the name of Sarah Batista from WBTV News. She was the first person to really interview us and take our efforts seriously, thus providing our movement with its first real exposure. I remember telling her when she interviewed us, that I wasn’t going to forget that she was the first to listen, and she said “I’ve got a good feeling about you guys and this story”. Since that day, she has interviewed us on multiple occasions and was even nice enough to visit the students at my school for career day. As some of you may be aware, she has decided to leave WBTV to pursue her dream job of starting her own company which is aimed at creating videos for non-profit organizations. Her company is called Stories to Inspire. We wanted to let you know that “Stories to Inspire” along with “Yellow Arrow Film” will be partnering to create a documentary on the “We Beelieve” and “Bring Back the Buzz” movement.

Here is the link to the official website for “Stories to Inspire” http://storiestoinspirefilms.com/

Yesterday Jordan announced in a press conference before the Draft Lottery that the Bobcats would be starting the process to switch over to the Hornets name. Shortly after the words left his mouth employees for the team came out to fans in the arena and handed out new season ticket deals decorated in Beeautiful fashion!
