I WENT TO MY FIRST FOOTBALL MATCH BABY!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!
Well, I didn't go there because I wanted to; more of because I wanted to see how the camera and production set-up looked like at the Jalan Besar Stadium. Part of the internship, you see.
Didn't have to pay a single cent to get in, and I got to stand near the benches where the coaches and substitutes were! All because of this sweet lil' thang:
A.K.A ALL ACCESS. MUAHAHAH. ^^
So we got into the OB van to observe the studio set-up. The match was Woodlands Wellington FC versus Super Reds FC, and was to be telecast LIVE. So you could imagine how hectic the situation was at the studio just now. And the best part is, they have to do this same thing all the way til the 19th of June. Wah, jialat.
Just to give you guys an idea of how confusing the filming process can be, here's a look at the video switcher:
SO.
MANY.
BUTTONS.
Way more than what we have in school. Then again, we were only controlling 4 cameras; they're controlling 8. -_-"
So the match ended in a draw at full-time - they were filled with many exciting chances though - and since it was a quarter final match of the League Cup, we went into extra time, WHICH ENDED IN A DRAW AS WELL.
And during extra time, Woodlands and Super Reds got into an all-out fight right on the section of the field beside me. LIKE WTF. The Korean dudes so started it first lah, which prompted the Woodlands bench to react like a whole bunch of matreps. The whole stadium was filled with 'em by the way. -_-
So the match ended with a win by Woodlands through penalties.
First live match.
Draw on both normal and extra time.
Fight broke out right in front of me.
WHAT ARE THE ODDS.
Pretty good, actually. XD
