Wow, a whole season has past us by with only one game left. And that game is the biggest in the team history, the 2013 United Cup III Championship. Daniel and myself will be traveling with the team to Clearwater Fl on June 1st, to document their journey and hopefully end the day with a Championship win. That would be a great ending to our film.
When we started this Journey in Mid January, I really didn't know what to expect or how this season would end up. But it has become a special season and we as producers are honored to have been able to capture it, plus no one knows what will happen when you are filming a documentary and nothing is scripted. Like on the eve of the Conference Championship game, Owner Jay Lawrence is hospitalized and the team digs deep and pulls out a win for him. That is only in the movies. Or when we are able to be in the mix of some of the greatest games in team history. Nothing just happens, its our destiny, it was meant to be this way and we are excited to be in the midst of it all.
Just one more week away and we will be documenting our last game and then we will start to focus on our next phase of the film. Players are being filmed outside of the field of battle, their lives are being chronicled to show just how real their journey is. Professional athletes have been contacted and some have responded which will make our film so much more real, and Daniel and I are just soaking it all in.
Sometimes when you are working on a project, things can happen very quickly and you lose the feeling of what it was like. But we are taking this slow, enjoying every moment, every shot, every picture, and making sure to capture the memories.
We are not finished just yet............. The next phase is about to begin. So Excited.
