Top NFL Draft prospects will be featured throughout ESPN’s coverage

Ezra Knight, lead voice-over actor, on film set.

April 1 – Atlanta, Ga.
Nickerson: “We custom designed a set at a soundstage in Atlanta. We built it in about a day and a half and was completely custom. The area resembled a NFL Draft war room with a giant LED wall that was 12 feet tall and 40 feet wide, flowing with data that was designed by the in-house team of Kynna Randall, Richard Harrington and David Seo. We also had a six-foot white NFL shield flanked by AFC helmets on one side and NFC on the other. Ezra has voiced our draft spots for the past four or five years, and he is a professional actor, so it was nice to be able to get him in front of the camera and play the role of our GM. He has a powerful presence poised at the end of a 30-foot table we had made for the shoot. Warren Wolcott (post editor) crushed it in the edit room with all of this footage.”
