BBC Documentary request for Help
Dear Sir/Madam
I hope that Unica and its members may be able to help with a documentary I am making.
I am a BBC Television producer and I am making a one-hour programme for transmission this Christmas. It is going to be a history of the Football World Cup. We want to tell the story by using non-professional and home movie footage shot by football fans and cine enthusiasts who were lucky enough to be at any of the finals from Uruguay in 1930 to W. Germany in 1974 through to France in 1998. It doesnot matter what format the material was shot on.
I am not particularly looking for footage of the football matches but instead the documentary footage that shows the excitement that the tournament brings. Maybe some of your members live in a host country and made a record of what happened. Anything. I would also like to speak to the film maker who took the footage.
I would be very grateful for any information you might be able to provide. Please feel free to get in contact with me.
