Homecoming Ready EP.1 – Documentary – Runtime: 24 mins
There is nothing like an HBCU Homecoming! If you had to describe, it’s probably the best combination of a family reunion, fashion show, concert, day party, music festival, week-long church revival (I’m talking Men’s Day, Church Anniversary and Women’s Auxiliary Usher Board #9 New Member’s Celebration, rolled into one), oh and there is a football game too. If that wasn’t enough, we all have our own reasons and, sometimes very different, for why we come back to our beloved University, but still share the need to get ready, in the true Hampton spirit! Homecoming Ready is a short film/docu-series with a dedicated focus to Game Day preparations by the Hampton Pirates Football Team, for the Homecoming Game! The larger and more enticing story is the Homecoming preparation rituals undertaken by alumni, students and staff, as we all get ready, but not just ready…Homecoming Ready!
