Inside NFL Films. The Idol-Makers

Description

The camera operators of the National Football League are the stars of this program, which takes viewers inside the process of filming games for broadcast-and posterity. The documentary captures the filmmakers at work as they prepare for and take part in their annual tour-de-force: recording the drama of the Super Bowl. Scenes of the videographers setting up their equipment, covering players as they prepare to take the field, and striving to capture pivotal movements in the game help illustrate how complex broadcasting procedures coalesce into an entertaining, informative, and even poetic television experience.
