Margaret "Digit" Murphy, Brown University
Women's Hockey coach, and David Zapatka, President of Mill Cove Video Producitons
of North Kingstown, RI, announce the formation of Digit Productions, LLC. Their
first product is "Breaking the Ice," the first video produced specifically
for women's ice hockey by a female coach.
The tape features female players demonstrating drills designed
to improve viewers' level of play. A review section is featured at the beginning
of the video for easy practice reference. What makes "Breaking the Ice"
stand out among other hockey training videos is the quality of the production.
Dramatic lighting and moving camera angles enhance the viewer's involvement in
the drills.
