Photo opportunities!! :D

[Phreddy]

G'day Guys.

As some of you know, Richie and myself (well, mainly Richie... ) are doing some serious massage of the ASR Audio & Electronics web site content. Among other things, what's seriously missing is some PHOTOS and VIDEOS of the work that's out there.

There's no shortage of pics out there in the wild, but really what I'd like is loads more pics of several different dash themes, but all shot from the same aspect / angles etc. I'm almost competed work on a small mounting frame for a still or video camera (to be able to easily achieve same-aspect shots), and I would welcome a visit from as many guys as would be keen to show off their own ride on my soon to be released all new web site!

I wonder if we could make a bit of a gathering out of it? I mean, naturally this will be pretty much limited to the guys in the Sydney area, preferably those tending to the Western parts... But hey, we could always get a few beers cold, and I have a barbie that works OK... After sundown, we get some good shots for the site content - voila!

Thoughts??

[Zeussy]

Doesnt sound like too bad an idea you have there Phreddy, maybe bourbons instead of beers... lol,

If you needed (yet) another blue/white theme, with white A/C, and rear demistor buttons, and orange blinkers!! That would give me an excuse to get some of those number plate lights, and maybe some footwell lights too, (x4 = 2 under the dash, and 2 under the front seats for the rears!)

If I ended up being needed/coming down, itd be a nice opportunity to get a clean copy of the shots, emailed through (or how ever)


Let me know what you rekon...

Good luck with getting ASR into full swing, (I dont think you'd need it) there seems to be quite a bit of interest in it from here..
Take it easy..

[ruggj]

if you do my vx dash for free ill be willing :P jk, sounds like a good idea, showing what you have on offer, especially from your customers would be great, and theres some really great setups ive seen on this site. so shouldnt be hard to get 20 - 40+ photos

[Torquative]

Greg, you know Im in for it, and Richie ... well he'll do anything for a photo shoot

I know Andrew would be in on it as well, and Im sure Paul will when his work gets done tomorrow

Im trying to still get a non shaky shot of the morphing needles but the damn camera wont mount anywhere secure.

You have all 3 JCCC NSW VZ's covered, and Richies V, err whatever it is these days

Might be able to make it a bit of a promo thing, we can do a JCCC NSW BBQ night somewhere, and if anyone wants to see your work in real life they can also pop down have a sausage sandwhich say g'day and see the work in action! Just a thought ...

[PaulSV6]

I will be definitely in on this
Matt, car will be getting done on either Monday or Tuesday

[HeadSwitch]

If your ever back down my way I'd be more than happy for you to take some photos of your handy work.

I'd really like to get some more shots of my new dash. I haven't had much success at doing it myself.

[taztassio]

lol maybe when u come back down greg! whens that melb road trip happening?

i am no closer to the dash conversion since when u were down here

[rch-13z]

As Matt said, me & my VTXYZ is always keen to go for a sausage sandwich and a photo...

Let me know..

[Torquative]

well Greg we can organise something where we'll make an afternoon/night out of it, invite everyone along to suss out what you acctually do while grabbing photos then head onto a nice dinner?

Make it Parramatta-ish so its central for everyone and hopefully a few of your Sydney customers will also come along to boost the photo numbers. It will give Rich a chance to get decent photos and allow new customers or those who are loking at having stuff Phreddie-rised to have a chat with existing customers who have been back to you more then once, bit of an interactive demonstration if you will.

[rch-13z]

lol,
Dunno about the dinner thing Matt, might make things too formal.... I think Greg is just after some pretty photos so I can get this new webby up & running...

+ my camera is buggered. I know Greg's got a decent camera and supposed a nice stand for camera/video cam to view those sweet morphing needles properly...

[Torquative]

just thinking of a way to attract more interest thats all

perhaps even a bit of a get together then thats somewhere central for everyone. Dont know how succesful it'll be, then again you wouldnt know til we try.

just thinking out loud here

[rch-13z]

yeah no worries, I'm not too fussed as long as we can get this website up and running....

I'm itching to release it... Hoping Greg feels the same

[rch-13z]

Bought myself a decent camera today.... All set to get cracking!

[Haydz]

Bought myself a decent camera today.... All set to get cracking!

what sort of camera rich. im looking to buy one myself. just cant make up my mind.

[Torquative]

Greg, how many sydney customers do you have contact details for?

Im thinking get in contact with them to get the ball rolling and go from there, set a date and a venue.

Advertisie it here at ASR forum, advertise it in the JCCC section as people browse there, try and spark interest.

The other thing is now youve been interstate get some people to take photos fron the same perspective, for instance of the dash, radio etc. You might not get high quality photos that you will with Richies camera but at least you would have varying colour schemes and work ...

[Fishman88]

Im Keen For some photos although i dun have any of ur products as yet wanting some performance bits first but ye would like to see other members cars!!

[Mix 6000]

Hi Greg....I'd be interested in the photo shoot....If I'm not working on the day it gets choosen...Cheers, Mick....

[Torquative]

Fishman would like to check out the cars, Im sure the first of many

[Fishman88]

Haha helll yehhh i wanna chek em out!! see those blue dash !! loooks amazin on pics wuld be better in real life!!

[Torquative]

Hey Greg I know your extremely busy these days (which is awesome to hear)

would you like to trust the JCCCNSW crew to handle this and we can organise to get some decent photos one night? All i would need is some usernames of sydney customers so i can tee it up with them, and of course Richie (or his camera ...)

[Phreddy]

G'day there Matt!

Heh - yeh, busy - but not always for the right reasons....

Mate, that would be terrific - to be honest I'm having a little trouble with one pair of hands, and if you're happy to look after a bit of that for me I'm sure I can return the favour down the track somewhere.

By the way - still waiting on a call to get those couple of things fixed up for ya!

Cheerz, later!

Matt, remember what I said on FB... Choose a Saturday day and the lion gets it lol

[Torquative]

mate I understand that word busy too,

okay I'll discuss this with you guys via PM but we can make it happen

BTW Richie I sort of need you there so dont you think it'll be difficult without you? The only issue being we need night shots to show the dash and buttons lit up at night ... Sunday night, hmmm

I'll suss something out thats central and easy to get too, if you have a Phreddied car and are happy to help out by letting us take photos please PM Me ... everyone else who is interested in seeing the cars and work stayed tuned

[rch-13z]

Saturday nights are fine buddy, I only work till 4:15pm and the wife will get over it! lol

[Torquative]

oh well then
