Video/Photo Shoot

Ok, as you all know, I am making a documentary, and what would a documentary be with out interviews!?!?!? So I am putting out on a number of sites that I am planning a video/photo shoot here where I work (Victory Studios). This is simply to gauge interest and to see what kind of cars/people I can attract. I'd love just about any RX7 so hit me up if you'd be interested. I want to get your car, you and your opinion on video. A friend of mine will be taking the photos and I will be doing the video. And in case you haven't seen the sound stage we have here (guessing most of you haven't) we can easily fit Bayliners's boats in here for photo shoots, so it's not tiny=no fender benders!!!!! Let me know if you are interested and just a heads up, it will most likely be a night shoot. Thanks!!!

Yes that was me, I'm still working on that documentary. the crappy thing is that I won't vbe able to use the sound stage for this whole thing. The president of the company I work for vetoed that because the last time we had cars in there the weight cracked the paint on the floor, oil dripped into the cracks and I guess it got painted over and it messed stuff up so unless I come up with a damage deposit (which is probably more than I have) I'll probably shoot it around Seattle in various locals.

Ok so the shoot is going to be this saturday the 21st. We will be meeting at Victory Studios at oh say, noonish for people driving a bit farther than others. The address there is 2247 15th Ave. West, Seattle WA 98119. As far as clothing is concerned, no obnoxious neon orange early 90's reject multi colored clothes.... But anything car oriented is fine. I'm not planning on making money off of this so if you want to wear a hat that says "RX7" or a shirt that says "HKS" or whatever that's fine, I won't be getting sued hopefully. As for locations, there are 2 I have in mind that will be fairly close by. But i will be open to suggestions when we all get there, just to keep the spirit of spontenaity present. The weather is supposed to be mostly sunny with a high of 59, so a jacket may be in order. If there are any complications call me on my cell phone at (360)929-4586, unless for some reson I can't get the equipment I need this is a for sure deal, I will post otherwise if something goes wrong. If anyone is interested please let me know or post something.... Thanks

If my FD was insured to drive, licensed, and didn't have a bad coolant seal I'd be there.

Well Saturday was sort of a flop. Only 2 cars showed up for the shoot out of the 8 or so that said they'd be there. An RB20DET powered S12 and an S13. We got some shots around Seattle, then we headed down to Axiom in Lakewood. There just s happened to be a Turbo RX-8 there that was pretty clean that I interviewed the driver and got some shots of the car. A Civic (eh not my favorite car but it was alright). But Sunday, I went back down, ALLLLLL the way from Everett again to Axiom and got 2 EVO's, one of which either is or was the fastest EVO with a stock turbo (pushing like 580whp on a dynopack dyno) the S12 from Saturday, and then another S12. It was fun, but I was up till 3 or 4 in the morning all weekend after getting p at like 10 in the morning everyday..... Needless to say I was very tired when I got up for work.
