Directed for advertising, the two-minute film- which features soccer superstars including Cesc Fabregas, Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, Carlos Tevez and Ronaldinho, as well as Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger – represents a major international collaboration between the Mill´s offices.
In this presentation, Jordi Barés deals with the making of this commercial spot from the point of view of filming logistics, production, organization and project tools, keeping in mind the difficulty involved in two teams working in parallel.
The Mill pushed the post production envelope to the extreme on this project, going into some unchartered fx territory, firstly setting up a new data pipeline for the camera (used here for the first time in commercial production) and also for the camera tracking required, in order to track shots previously considered impossible.
