new official trailer, please watch it and let me know what you think. I'll be making changes to it then the final version will be on youtube.
so the World Cup is coming up and I'll be trying to promote this project from now right through to july. I have a bunch of plans but some of you might have more experience promoting this sort of thing so any advice or ideas would be nice, let me know

Just wanted to post an update... the doc is still in production, there's going to be a short version as well as a completed 60min version released this spring before the 2018 World Cup.
I just released some music I made for it. If you like afrobeat or african guitar styles you might like this,
Will be more music released next year like brasilian and latin sort of stuff.

I'm interested to know what its like in other cities around the world during the games. Most cities are pretty multicultural but I think they all have a different dynamic, like I doubt there are parades of Brazilians wondering around London or Berlin banging drums but I could be wrong. It'd be interesting to see. Toronto has a pretty open approach to its diversity so people tend to take to the streets.

This will be released next week. Its a bit later than I had intended, obviously with the World Cup on I want to take advantage of the timing but I didn't want to release something I wasn't comfortable with so I've taken a little extra time. A big challenge with this has been to figure out how to present the movie as a documentary on its own just for what it is, because ultimately its about a lot more than just the World Cup, so once the hype has died down a bit it might make a little more sense.

cool, but why don't you mention the city in the trailer? or maybe you did and i missed it?

Dope that you made a movie, shame it was based in one of the countries and cities furthest from Football culture ever.

Its going to be released online and I want the site to be as solid as possible, it will be the main destination to watch it with a 'watch now' area and stuff. The current site is just a temporary thing to show off the trailer so I've been looking for some decent wp themes that might work. Something clean that will make a nice presentation for a documentary like this. Not exactly my area, any suggestions would be great.

I'm still looking for something for the site but I think I might just stay with what I have and alter it a bit. Everything I find is too complicated and/or corporate for what I need.

Cool idea. So you shot all of the footage during the 2010 WC? Or during the qualifiers as well? Either way, good luck.
