Rugby Players - ITV 'Rugby World Cup 2007' Titles

Summary
  • Production: 'World Cup Rugby 2007' Titles - ITV Creative
  • Director: Jimmy Quigley

A hero English rugby player runs through a ghostly field of opponents who fail to tackle and stop him from scoring a try. This was shot at Black Island studios in a large studio which had been turfed over - some 20m x 30m. Fortunately, the shots required an 'out of the darkness' look, which was easily achieved using a relatively small number of lights: if the entire area had been needed to be lit, there would have been considerably more lights!
