MOVIE TEASER - work-in-progress


It is virtually impossible to distill an entire feature-length movie into a 2-minute teaser - especially a movie that has such depth and range of styles and timescales as 'Spirit of the Game' does. However, we hope the teaser work-in-progress below will give you just a hint of both the reality and the magic that this hand-crafted film will bring to its audience - as well as underline the socially-real themes we are tackling in this aspect of the film. As you will see, this teaser is not yet finished - the first half is yet to be completed in color and is just at a rough storyboard stage right now. However, we do believe that we have is good enough to share so that the basic concept can be appreciated...


Thanks folks!
