As Daniel and I look over the story board at the characters that may be showcased in the film, we struggle with the understanding of what dreams do these players really have. Does the information we have truly tell the story of each player or do we need to delve even further into their lives? When you want to put together a great project that tells a compelling story, you need to have all the components and the players are the key to the story. As Daniel and I contemplate what angle we will deliver we will focus on these key athletes and what makes each tick and which part of their journey stands out the most.
As I have talked with a few players already, the journey's that they share have already given me an idea that our film will truly show people that best side of semi-pro football. The negative aspect is always what people assume because they are looking at the outside version only, they have not looked within. Daniel and I have been blessed with the opportunity to look within the walls of the team, to get a great glimpse as to what their everyday lives are like. Which athlete has the biggest dream, or which talent other than football truly inspires them to be successful. The most important part of the film will be what is it like within the walls of their homes. Is there pressure to succeed because of the main responsibilities or is the pressure just too much to handle and the inevitable is upon them and that may be that they have to hang up their cleats.
We are truly entering a venue that has not been entered before and what we may discover is a world that no one truly cared to tell. Everyone wants to focus on the negatives of the game, but what we hope to share is the true story of where these athletes hope to go.
Hope you are enjoying this ride with us and the best is yet to come.
