The Glassworks Amsterdam team worked its VFX magic to give this football film its epic scale. From fully creating and integrating all the CG crowds and stadiums to adding avid flag-waving supporters and city backgrounds, the team ensured every 3D and 2D element was seamlessly woven into the action.
Football fans should keep an eye out for all the easter eggs peppered throughout. We won’t give them all away, but watch for the striking German tifo banner and the humorous Italian teacup!
Due to the sheer number of locations spanning the globe and shooting days, on-set supervision was split between my good friend Urs Furrer and myself.
