What is Sunday League?
Sunday league is about people who get together on Sunday
morning through rain, snow hail and dog poo to play what
they loe, football. The show Sunday League is based upon
the idea of people playing football through thick and thin but
the show is about more than !ust football but the lies of the
boys who play in the team. The boys hae become a family
and when things start to fall apart it"s the !ourney back
together where we learn and see what dries the boys to turnup eery Sunday een when they no they wont win especially
with no coach.

The Idea $si% episodes&

The team go through a rough patch ending up going their
separate ways, athan wants to continue playing football so

and Lucy 1nally manage to get their date on.
'pisode 2 ) 0rought
Sunday League was an idea created by a group of
1lmmakers oer the summer break before the pro!ect was
due to take place, the group consisted of 3 people and 2 of
which were football cra4y which lead to the idea of a 1lm
based around football. Instead of a 1lm the scriptwriter
decided she wanted to create a series as a challenge, as a
pilot Sunday League would need research as T5 can be ery
di6erent to 1lm but we were all e%cited about the idea and
couldn"t wait to get started with a script. This wasn"t
suppose to be your typical 1lm like 7oal or 8end it like
8eckham but a story about the lies of no9 league and the

The team are on a bit of a dry patch on and o6 the pitch as

The ladies man that captain 7roes 7reen eery Sunday, hedoesn"t hae much going for him e%cept the team and thefamily they hae become een when 0ean only thinks of himself and can be a total dick.
Lucy ) @layed by #annah Bay
Lucy, brother to Tom, had a crush on 0ean. She plays for agirls football team as she isn"t really the girly type and loes

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-making-of-sunday-league 5/19
to kick about, she doesn"t really care what she looks like orwears, e%cept when 0ean is around.
Tom ) @layed by Mitchell isher
0eans best friends and Lucy"s brother, he has a secretgirlfriend he wont let anyone meet to ruin it, the mostaggressie member of the team that loes a good yellow card,will stick up for his mate on occasion.
ath ) @layed by Matt Thompson
The shy geeky goalkeeper, of a day athan en!oys gamingespecially /all of 0uty, he is ery shy and weak which is why
he feels like the weakest team player een though he is themost important one.
0on ) @layed by @aul 8ridger
0on is a former football coach now these days he hasn"treally got anything going for him, secretly he wants to getback into football so when 0ean approaches deep down he ishappy but he has to test the boys as he cant fail.
;llie ) @layed by Bamie Terry
;llie Backson is the funny one on the team and loes to makea !oke of eerything, he is the striker but is neer about toscore on the pitch or o6 it.
Locations
@itch )
The pitch location is in =aihnam $Aent& on the local council
grounds where there is - pitches, as this is public grounds this
8/17/2019 The Making of Sunday League
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-making-of-sunday-league 6/19
means that we don"t need permission but I
emailed the council anyways and they were
happy as long as I sent them a risk
assessment.
ightclub )
The nightclub is a room within the =oyal
unction rooms this originally isn"t a nightclub
but when we iewed it for the wedding we felt
this would be good for the nightclub instead.
It een has a disco ball.
8o%ing )
This place I was recommend to as it is only a small space
hidden in Luton, as a friend recommended it we didn"t hae to
pay for the place which was great and it was perfect as it had
a ring and space around for e%ercise.
Wedding )
This was a little hard to 1nd but one day we
droe past and they had a sign up so we went
to hae a look and it"s a small hall which with
a little set dressing we loed it.
Aitchen )
The Aitchen and the bedroom scenes were 1lmed in one of our
houses as the kitchen needed to hae a table for 0ean and
Lucy to sit around and a cupboard behind so 0ean can check
out Lucy.

Inbetweeners
program that originally was inspiration to some of us was
Inbetweeners as it a typical 8ritish comedyCdrama, the only
di6erence is the boys are older and not is school making it
less about all the se% references.
riends
riends is an merican comedyCdrama set around a group of
friends that are like family ) !ust like our boys but instead of
being in a co6ee shop the boys are on the pitch. s friends is
merican the comedy is slightly di6erent as 8ritish humor is
dryer and not as funny to some people.
@hoto shoot
photo9shoot was !ust an e%tra idea I had so we could hae
picture of the team for posters etc. turns out we needed
pictures for #elen to create her idea of stickers in pre9
production anyways. The photo9shoot eeryone loed and
en!oyed and we got some great photos for eeryone to use.

/all Sheets
This is the e%act call sheet 1rst
page that was sent to
eeryone- days before 1lming
week as this was the 1rst
shoot day at the wedding
enue.
;n the ne%t 3 pages are
costumes for each person,
reDuired the kit we need, a
map of the location, the
weather by hour and the risk
assessment for the location.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-making-of-sunday-league 9/19
This call sheet is pretty
much the same e%cept it
has di6erent scenes as this
is for the football pitch day
2, minor things change like
the call time, the weather,
the location, people needed
are more hear than the 1rst
day.

This the =isk assessment I
created for the football pitch, this is a basic template that I
found online as most are ery similar as long as you hae the
correct information and 1ll in properly eerything is 1ne and
you will be coered, it is important to put down eerything
that could cause a risk though, like for e%ample we used a
drone which could be ha4ardous if we lost control and hit
someone or something, but as it was in this document we
would be coered under the insurance plus eeryone 1lming
was aware of it.

/ontract
This is the template that the uni
proided us with as a basis, I actually
used this template but e%panded it
after doing research of what it should
entail, I made sure it included
eerything I could think of in case of
any problems, een then after getting
them signed I thought of more things
to add. It ended up being nearly -
pages long and it included items such
as, trael, e%penses, script copyright
and a guarantee the actor would turn up 1lming week.
Schedule
This is a simple hourly schedule made for the actors and crew
to see basically where we will be and what we are 1lming on
each day before the call sheets will go out, a simple e%cel
8/17/2019 The Making of Sunday League
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-making-of-sunday-league 12/19
document makes it easy to see by hours and what scenes
people are in so some can een hae days o6.
ilming week
0ay (
We started with only the wedding scenes which consisted of 2
scenes in total and we had < hours in which to 1lm them, this
location was one of the paid places so we were on a time limit
plus we had to set dress as this was the biggest set dressing
location of the week, good to get the big things done 1rst. We
actually did the dressing Duite Duickly as there was 2 of us
while the boys set up the camera, we also 1nished with about
3< minutes spare but I did hae to rush around as one of the
car broke down so I had to do - car trips with the props but we
had to keep going.
0ay -
8ritish weather decided to change like always and it was
lightly raining on the pitch, we were due to 1lm the big talking
scene after the intro to get this out of the way 1rst but with
the rain it delayed us, we did howeer manage to 1lm it. We
also managed to 1t in a car scene at the end of the day which
wasn"t scheduled as the football didn"t take us as long as
thought, but it was good to oer prepare as you neer know,
and hae back9up scenes incase.

0ay 2
This was set to be the biggest day for the pitch as we hae we
had all the e%tras in and the big scene with the Strood team
and the reuniting. This is why we had our e%tra cameraman in
on this day plus as the Strood team goalkeeper didn"t turn up
we had to change things at last minute and my runner
became the goalkeeper, which turned out ok in the end. We
again got in an e%tra car scene !ust before it got dark, this one
was more of a push for light but managed to get eerything I
scheduled in for the football days and more done.
0ay 3
This was set to be a small day with cast but we had the main
female lead $Lucy& in this day so we had to get all her scenes
done, all the scenes were indoor but I scheduled the -
bedroom scenes - kitchen scenes before it got dark, then we
moed onto the nightclub scenes.
s the week was moing along things started to run smoother,
only a few things went wrong e%cept this day I burnt my 1nger
on cutting my own Backet potato which annoyed me, but at
least it was me and not the cast or crew. I also forgot the 0B
decks when we left for the nightclub so I had to run back and
get them along with some speakers as my runner wouldn"t
know where to 1nd them.

This was the 1nal day of 1lming this week and was a slightly
smaller day to end the week, we only had to 1lm the - liing
room scenes then moe to the bo%ing. s this was the only
day without make9up I had to do it myself but she had left mefake blood, eerything was going great until the man neer
turned up at the bo%ing to open up, he
had forgotten but as he lied near by ha
came around and opened up half hour late
but we managed to get the shots and
more, plus eeryone had a
laugh at the end,
great week.

The TeamE
@roducer ) imee
My !ob was to make sure Sunday Leaguewent from script toscreen and eerything in
between, Ihad to
organi4ethe shoot
and make sure eeryone turnedup to 1lm, we were insured
through all the necessarypaperwork and most importantly the actors waslooked after and had fun.
0irector ) 0anny
The 0irectors !ob is to communicate to theactors and cameraman to make themunderstand what it is that he wants fromthat scene or shot, by telling the actor to notmoe his hand or pull that face. The 0irectoralso has say in casting and picking thelocation to appear on screen.
/inematographerC'ditor ) /hris
The cinematographer is the cameraman butthey also are in charge of the lighting too, thedirector would hae gien the shot list oer sothey are prepared but they work with thedirector on the shots, they are solely
responsible for the focus and the lightly to beon point.

The 0rone is a mini copter with 3 bladesthat lift the go9pro into the air to get thehard to reach angles, it is controlledthrough wi1 on a tablet connected to thehand controlled, @aul also when notFying did the catering to make sure wewas fed and watered.
ssistant 0irector ) Illy
The 0 helps the director out by keepingthem on time and making sure there is Duietwhen there needs to be, but also helping withany needs the director may hae like holdinghis script, or reminding them what crossing
the line may be.
Sound ) 0an
Sound can be one of the most importantelements to the 1lm as without goodsound people wont watch it, unless it"s asilent 1lm you hae to worry about thesound Duality as outdoor sound it the
worst as you hae to worry about windrain and the noisiness.
Make9up ) /harlene
s this 1lm is mainly men that don"t reallyreDuire make9up as such we didn"t need afull time make9up artist, the main scene wedid need make9up was for the bruises but Irecommend haing all the time !ust in case

for aspects such as anti9shine plus they know more about thisthan you do.
=unner ) /ameron
runner is the person who runs around doingdi6erent things people reDuest such asmaking a cup of tea or bringing the bottle of water, the bene1ts are great especially if theyhae a car.
Tips on Making a T5 pilot yourselfE
(. Make sure you are prepared
Gou can neer be too prepared and the more you doearlier the less you hae to worried about later andmaking this will not be easy so after creating this Iwould recommend to be prepared for anything andeerything that could possible come your way.
-. lways hae back ups'en though you hae your cast and crew sorted
always hae someone as a back9up that you could calllast minute !ust in case someone does drop out forwhateer reason, plus oer crewing isn"t a bad idea asthe more hands the better on a big production.
2. '%tras and smaller roles are !ust as important Bust because an e%tra or in Sunday League a bridesmaidlooks like an easy small role you can worry about later,
this de1nitely isn"t the case and with scenes like thewedding and the nightclub you don"t want to be without
8/17/2019 The Making of Sunday League
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-making-of-sunday-league 18/19
e%tras so cast the roles like the bridesmaid the same asyou would the main cast.
3. 0on"t under estimate Bust because a scene is a Duarter or half the page long
and you feel it could be done in an hour double thattime, you hae to gie yourself time when 1lming assetting up takes time as well as the actors getting intorole plus the aerage 2 takes per shot so always gieyourself plenty of time to shoot eerything.
<. 'n!oy itMaking the episode will be oer Duite Duickly so en!oy
making it and if you hae followed the other tips youwill hae time to en!oy the funny moments and themoments you will remember why you made theproduction and went through the hard work in the 1rstplace.
