Rob_Mitchell Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I am booked in with the photographer on monday 23rd to have the car featured for front cover of Banzai. The car is having Ksport stickers fitted on friday as it was part of the deal i had with them on the brakes and its no big deal just for a photoshoot, happy i can help promote the new range big brake kits. Its my first shoot and very happy, few questions....... 1) How long do they roughly take? 2) can you clean the car when arrived at shoot? Cheers Rob, ill keep this thread updated with preperation pics, shoot day pics and final mag feature pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I'd allow most of the day, and bring some speed detailer with you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 They take aaaaaaages, be prepared to be very very bored . Congrats on front cover though, I've had a Banzai feature before but not front cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Brilliant! I really hope they will let me use a few in the calendar, as you could have a whole month to yourself. Did I just say that out loud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mplavery Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Congrats mate ! well deserved As above it takes 4-5 hours to do I really enjoyed doing mine, was a great experience... Only thing I wished I had done on my first photo shoot was to bring some food, drink and my foldaway chairs lol Yep you can give it a good clean if you want to, I said to them shall I give my engine bay a wipe over and he said it was fine as they have a play with the photos anyway’s Just hope it’s a nice day for you They did asked me if I would do a burn out for them, I said no, just spent £700 on rear tyres lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Steve Hall and Joe (editer for banzai) Joe won't be doing the Photo's, he'll be the one doing the questions with you afterwards. In addition to what has already been mentioned, I'd also take a book and be thankfull you are doing this in (an albeit miserable) summer, I had one photoshoot in winter, not a pleasureable experiance.

spikedjack Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Congrats dude! As said, when I got featured it was about a 4 hour shoot, I spent two days cleaning the car before hand and about an hour when I got there going over it quickly as such... Take plenty of food/drink with you also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
