Members,<br>

Did any of you read Andy's post below. The shoot is to show the best
of our club. If I understand the shoot, the process would be to take
ONE train around the layout and narrate as it goes along. For each
spot chosen on the layout, there will be camera set-up, time running
the train chosen to film and this my take several takes. There will
not be a whole lot of everyone running a train as it will take time for
the filming of each train or trains selected. Whereas you may have
some special loco or car you would like to run, it may, or maybe most
likely, not fit in to the filming process. It would not be surprised
if club cars, etc, are not even used.<br>
<br>
We are attempting to show off the best of the club. The number of
trains needed may not be all that many.<br>
Think about it. <br>

<div class=""><b><big>Thank you for all that showed up Friday and
Saturday to clean
the layout in preparation for the photo shoot with TSG Multimedia.
Regrettably I was not able to show either day due to work and getting
ready for a business trip that I will be on all next week, coming home
on Saturday (the day of the photo shoot). </big></b></div>

<div class=""><b><big>Just a reminder, this is a photo shoot that
has the very real
potential to be seen world wide! Who ever is showing up that Saturday
to help with this great endeavor please bring your best running AND
best
appearing equipment. We need to make our club look good, no missing
hand rails, lights working, appropriate paint and so on. The operating
rules will be in affect, run prototypically. By prototypically I mean
run scale appropriate speeds, appropriate equipment and so on. I have
learned that when I am taking video of my trains, sometimes what looks
good to the eye turns out to be warp speed on film. To quote Space
Balls "They've gone plad!" So please no "plad" trains. Whatever your
power is, run equipment behind it that is appropriate for that era.
There are guide lines as far as era is concerned in the operating rules
that have been voted in. </big></b></div>

<div class=""><b><big>Follow the photographers' instructions, I
am sure most of us
have seen their videos before, they are good at what they do. <u>
Assume
that when they are there it is not going to be a free run. </u> Odds
are
trains will be staged and run on cues for the sake of the video, in
other words held off camera and on the given cue run it through the
shot, but above all listen to instruction, the shots are planned, our
trains are now actors. The videos I have seen, follow one train around
the layout with a few meets thrown in. That one train NEEDS to run
well with ideally no issues.</big></b></div>

<div class=""><b><big>Who ever is showing Saturday for the shoot,
I have herd that
the shoot is starting at 10. Please show up at 9 if you can to set up
and clean track. If you have a track cleaner in your train make sure
it is in good working order, looks respectable, AND is era
appropriate! Remember we are trying to replicate the real world.</big></b></div>
