OUR RELATIONSHIP
WITH
Pitch Football
LUNA TIDES was commissioned by media partners Fine Rolling and Eat Sleep Media to lead the on-location production and rapid-turnaround editing for Pitch Football at the Euros.
Operating internationally on the ground throughout the tournament, our team established an agile production and post-production workflow that enabled content to move directly from live tournament environments to major broadcast and digital networks. The project brought together our expertise in location production, high-profile talent capture and accelerated post-production, supporting the delivery of content to demanding broadcast and digital schedules.
LUNA TIDES handled the on-location shooting and immediate post-production for our high-turnaround tournament coverage flawlessly. Even under demanding daily deadlines, the footage was high quality, network-compliant, and ready to go out to broadcast same-day.

FEATURED WORK
The brief required the rapid creation of a comprehensive, episodic tournament campaign for Sky TV and the Pitch Football app, anchored by on-site coverage in Portugal featuring former England international footballer Paul Ince. The primary operational challenge lay in filming high-end, broadcast-compliant content with premium talent on location, and executing immediate, same-day post-production turnarounds. The crew had to shoot, edit, color-grade, and clear network delivery requirements rapidly enough to broadcast each episode on Sky TV the exact same day it was filmed.
To meet the rigorous demands of same-day broadcasting, LUNA TIDES deployed a self-contained production and post-production unit on location in Portugal. Working alongside Paul Ince, our camera crew captured expert football analysis and fan culture on the ground, adapting quickly to the pace and demands of the live tournament environment.
At the same time, we established a mobile editing suite on location, allowing footage to move directly into post-production as soon as cards were offloaded. Editors worked in parallel on media management, proxy workflows, editing and colour grading, while coordinating closely with the directors to ensure broadcast masters were completed, quality-checked and delivered to Sky TV within the required multi-hour turnaround.
The project culminated in the production, filming, editing and successful delivery of a 25-episode first season for Sky TV platforms, with each episode going live on the same day it was filmed.
LUNA TIDES managed the full on-location production and post-production workflow, from capturing broadcast features and segment stings through to final editing, quality control and delivery. All high-profile talent footage was captured and finalised within the daily broadcast window, demonstrating our ability to deliver broadcast-ready content at pace within a demanding live sports environment.
