Photo Idea for MX

Post by Lil MiSbreaks »

We have an opportunity to have an article and photo in the MX mag (which is soooo mad 8) ) and they have offered to send a photographer around to take a shot. :D

They want something young and funky to have along with the article.....

What do you guys think we should do??? Any ideas :idea:

Get about 10-15 people to wear big, phat hoodies (all different) and massive grins and line em up against the wall shoulder to shoulder.

Whatever you do, have big, big smiles. They look beautiful.

Go to a local fire station and ask if u can borrow a couple of fireman (they will be happy to oblige) and have gnat, brb, liz, lmb and someone else to get a photo taken with them, maybe at miss l's with art or somthing.

One looking up one looking down.

The one looking up should be the creative one, the one looking down the main dj.

Helps if it's twilight.

The DJ is the showman, so he's the ones looking up, and the creative one is the shy computer nerd... :P

Sideline: FLippo, it may be your last time, but I've got a copy of that infamous Fenticle advert and I'm willing to use it if neccessary :wink:



On the serious side, there were some pretty nifty fires in Sassafrass on Friday that may well still be smouldering. Maybe get in some cars, drive up with a fire extinguisher and make it look like "shit, we can't fight these fire ourselves, we need the CFA for this shit".

Very emotive

D-Boy is contacting the C.F.A to see if w can get a Fire Truck out the front of Miss L's some time this week and we'll get a few people to hang of it doin' silly stuff while the lights are flashing

would be good if we still had the melbournebeats banner that we could drape over the truck somewhere

Got a call from the chick at MX yesterday and we'll be doing the shoot inside Miss Libertine on Thursday arvo between 2 & 2:30

Would be awesome if peeps can makle it down, I know it's not the best time for those that are working but it's the best we could do.

If you have an MB.C t-shirt then bring that too

We'll probably take the shot in front of that crazy DJ booth in the main room and see if we can get a couple of C.F.A guys in there too.

A couple of people holding fire extinguishers would be cool too

Let me know if you can make it

I've got the day off tomozz and a few tees.

I'd feel a bit silly being in the photo as I haven't contributed towards the awesome organsiation of this event.

But I'd be happy to swing down for a cuppa if others want to wear the tshirts.

Let me know brb.

SORRY GUYS, JUST GOT A CALL FROM MX AND THE SHOOT (AND STORY) HAS BEEN CANCELLED

We got bumped for a more news-worthy story

really bummed out that we missed this opportunity, would've been great promotion.

Apologies to all that planned to come down

Dont think it's right to diss MX. They got a business to run, we were getting an editorial for nothing.

Need to be careful not to burn ourselves for any future charity gigs :wink:
