1. A system of video enhancement for event broadcasting, comprising:
a server platform in network communication with at least one input capture device for a first event and at least one user device;
wherein the at least one input capture device is operable to collect and transmit input data relating to the first event to the server platform;
wherein the server platform is operable to analyze the input data, thereby creating analyzed data;
wherein the server platform is operable to access historical data from at least one historical event;
wherein the server platform is operable to overlay a graphical element representing an element for comparison on video images of an element of interest in the first event;
wherein the at least one user device is operable to display the graphical element on the video images of the element of interest via an interactive graphical user interface (GUI); and
wherein data relating to the first event and the at least one historical event is synchronized from the beginnings of both events.
