Supercar needed for a music video - Monday 8th (21:00)

[Gruffy]

Producers are looking for the 'coolest' car possible for static use in a music video for an award-winning UK artist. Ideally something bright as the shoot is taking place at night (but the production company are seriously last-minute here so they'll 'make do' with what is available).

The shoot is in Hoxton and the car is likely to be needed for around 2 hours, from 21:00. The treatment has the artist sat in the car with the door open, singing to camera, so I'd suggest a Diablo/Murci/LP640 is best suited. There's no fee available, just the glamour of the event and as much weak coffee as you can drink.

Drop me a line (darren at FB5K dot com) if you're interested.

Just out of interest who is the artist? Or can you not tell us?

[Miyagi]

Yea who is the artist?

[cronk-flakes]

Probably a rap artist?

Not sure any other genre would call for a specific car type? Unless the artist was really into cars...

True. Although it could be an RnB artist too.

If it was Kano then that would be cool. But I bet it is someone like Jason Donavon trying to make a comeback vid lol!

Agreed, would be surprised if it was Kano though, not really his style.

Could always be a US artist (Ref 50 Cent and Justin Timberlake driving around London in an Exige and DB9)

I'd rather not say on the forum, but it is a rap artist. Not Kano, but not a million miles away either.

Hmmm?

Dizee rascal or Sway! I'd bet a £10 it will be either of them.

Lol 50 would have a budget for a car, so would any other US artist. I'm on another forum where there is a member who had his car used in one of 50's recent vids and he got paid.

Miyagi, I think he got a couple of thousend Dollars... he also got slated by half the board for doing a rap video:-). Not into this grime stuff but if its a UK rapper I am happy to help the cause, my car is black though.

Orange SuperLeggera avail, but at fee. Sorry

Thought it was $5,000 could be wrong?

Lol @ him getting slated, well.....he could have picked a better artist to work with!

I'm not a grime fan either but I guess we need to support our own artists....

Many thanks for the offers but I've just confirmed a car for the shoot.

I can see your trip to the US has taught you some biz acumen! If you are busy I can take the SL down for you, do your part to encourage UK talent! or ill make you pay for it at the bar!

For a fee?

[DIW35]

Could have supplied an orange Diablo, but as I've just SORNed it for the winter, you'd have to pay all transporter costs.
