Atlanta folks, get your car in a movie - Fast & Furious 5
Hey all,
A good friend of mine runs an extras casting agency, and I told her I'd help out getting some extras and cars for the gig coming up (filming in August-September). She just emailed me this, so for those that fit the bill: "For cars we need street racers anything custom anything that looks FAST, high end custom and tuner cars, as well as Nopi types. If you are submitting a car please list as many specifics as possible and include at least two clear pictures of different views of the car. Send photos for extras and cars to: ff5extras@gmail.com" You do get paid for the usage of the car, per day. If selected, they'll contact you directly with more specifics such as days, call-times, etc...

Dre... thanks for the offer man, but you know that "looks fast" by those people's standards means you need to go spend a couple grand in APC accessories from the "performance" section of the AutoZone near you...
Examples -Walter

Hahaha I'm sure there'll be a variety out there, but I don't think they'll be picking up many of the Autozone folks.

And there'll be some high-end rides too. I've submitted my friends F360 Spider, plus some friends with Modded Vettes and a new ACR have joined in on the fun...

You know, I'm guessing just a variety. My friend is just starting to look for vehicles, and from her email it seems a little bit of everything.
If I remember correctly, right now it's for a big party scene...

I feel like any members' cars would have to get blown out of the water by a ricer for the film. Plus, who the hell is going to see a 5th F&F? Though it still would be cool.

They've set up base camp at my friend's apartment complex, I was gonna drive by and hope to see some of the cars there. If mine weren't stock I'd totally do this!!! Actually all I need is a fart can on the back and it should suffice.

I ended up doing the on-set detailing for many of the production company owned cars, stunt cars and a few of the extras. It was a neat experience. One of the funniest parts was them calling "lunch" at 2 am.

I think it's cool that you're a part of that! Jokes aside I love those movies. Not all of them are really good by most people's standards but it's fun to watch. After classes tomorrow I'm dropping by the base camp

I sent pics. of mine, but Janel came back and said that they are good with cars, but wants me to send her a pic. of me, if I want to be an extra. I don't think that she wants a pic. of this mug on that movie though.

Ya, f&f movies are pure entertainment. A time to shut your brain off and just watch the shenanigans.

Why NOT? I think it would be cool if you were in it. If they want you they want you

...you CAN if you want... I am selling my GSX.
It's not riced out though, all the 15k+ were invested under the hood, outside she's clean so I doubt it would make it in the movie! -Walter
