The Code: Life with the HSBC Waratahs (2011)

This documentary series allows viewers to 'step inside' the previously inaccessible team environment, to share the personal journey of several players as they experience the inevitable highs and lows of professional sport, access the extended HSBC Waratah family including fans, sponsors and family, witness life on tour in New Zealand and South Africa and marvel at the physical and mental demands of professional rugby. The series includes new players' adjustments to the squad, the expectations of the rugby public on the team, and the seasoned veterans pursuing for the grandest last hurrah - all main ingredients in the mounting crescendo towards Super Rugby triumph. Above all, the series tells the story on a rich visual canvas. Shot entirely on DSLR cameras, the high-end vision combines with a powerful symphonic soundtrack to provide an emotive and stylized television experience.
