Guest Frank Gossimier Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Is the Super Bowl some sort of athletic contest? What sport is played, bowling? Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rik Andino Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Is the Super Bowl some sort of athletic contest? What sport is played, bowling? Frank <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is this a serious question? :blink: It's the championship game for the NFL (National Football League). I do have another question to tack on to this thread Does NFL Films hire it's own people from it's headquaters in the East Coast And then send them all around the US to shoot the games, Or do they hire local cameramen (& women) to shoot the games? Is it a permanent job like working in a television studio, Or is it a contractual per game job? Do the cameramen have to have their own equipment or is it provided? I'm just interested in knowing what it takes. Combining film and football might be something I might want to do Except for the days when it's really F**king cold Anyways that's about it. Superbowl gonna suck this year there's no team to root for-->GO JETS, next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Belics Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 It's the championship game for the NFL (National Football League). Or, as we call it in the US, soccer. So its our national championship soccer game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbowl gonna suck this year there's no team to root for-->GO JETS, next year <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a little of both from what I've seen.They have cameramen who have been with them for a long time that travel.These are guys who live,eat and sleep football.I was shooting beside them once and one of their end zone guys was commenting about which side a particular player was going to run.He had studied this player's college record.They seem to keep a staff of folks who have been shooting with them a long time but do hire PA's and AC's locally.From what I've seen,some of the equipment is provided and some are the shooter's own packages and some are rental.I've seen alot of older cameras on the sidelines,Arri M's, Arri S's,Eclairs and some SR 2's and 3's. I agree on the teams.No team I really care about. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
