The Cedar Rapids Kernels provides a family-friendly entertainment venue for fans to enjoy Minor League Baseball. The High-A affiliate of the Minnesota Twins has over 70 home games between April and September and serves as a perfect summer activity.
As a major aspect of the stadium, Metro Studios uses the video board to its full capacity by working with video, audio, and graphics. We staff a full crew of talented camera operators, and a director and producer with the goal of creating an engaging experience for both fans and the Kernels proud sponsors. With multiple cameras and replay capability, our event production services provide a captivating multi-media experience for attendees.
From fun graphics to local ads, Metro Studios creates animated videos to get the crowd on their feet. Animations that play before the game, between innings, at-bats, and during the seventh-inning stretch to pump up fans and highlight activities going on around the stadium.
We write, produce, shoot, and edit intro videos, pump up videos, and Kernels promotional content. At each game you can find our team filming fans, vendors, players, and the mascot, Mr. Shucks.
Displaying effective stadium graphics with short messaging is made easy with graphic design services from Metro Studios. We work directly with each sponsor as well to develop content for the games. By keeping the Kernels branding and the branding of their sponsors in mind, all graphics are created to be informative, eye-catching, and entertaining.
In addition to video content, Metro Studios provides commercial photography services to elevate individual and team photos. We do headshots for player cards, website, and scoreboard.
Stadium announcements and promotions during each game provide information for fans and celebrate home runs. For fans wanting to experience the Kernels off the field, the All Ears podcast has in-depth interviews with Cedar Rapids baseball influencers including former and current players, managers, and executives. We edit the intro, outro, commercials and messages from sponsors, and clean up the audio to keep it clear and engaging.
