Inside the North London Derby / by Simon Mooney

The news that Spurs is the latest club to make an Amazon Prime documentary took me back to April 2007. Manager Martin Jol said no when the club asked to put a film crew in the dressing room for the derby with Arsenal and suggested I do it instead. I’d photographed Spurs behind the scenes for a couple of seasons but had no real experience with video so approached it as a stills photographer with a strange camcorder. I think it worked well, most of the time, but I learned to hold shots longer and the camera steadier. The random live soundtrack on this edit captures the mood.
