SInce we have so many interested once I hear from the place maybe we can shoot for this spring instead of this fall for the shoot.  I didn't dream I would get so many interested with just an inquiry thread.

Can't wait, I will let all know as soon as I know something.

Brett called and left me a mesage, he said ESP will work with us so we can hold our shoot there.  I will call him on Monday and let you all know the details nest week.

They don't do this kind of things but since there are so many of wanting to shoot there they are willing to let us hold an event.

You all can bring whoever you wish; the more photographers and models the more fun we will have.  We will have a final cost posted next week; right now I am estimating around $35 per person. This will include entry and food and drink. Date wise I am aiming for May or June at the earliest.  There is probably no heat or AC so I think the weather will be nice then and we would not need either. 

When we post final details there will be a web link with everything on it.  Any changes or updates will be made there and then we will use the thread to notify you of changes made on the web site.  We have done this before and it works out great as long as everyone reads through the web site.  William is great at posting an address link so you can all find your way to the event. 
I am also going to do some hotel scouting to find the cheapest rooms info also. 

This one is very important: Everyone will be paying in advance and placed on a list.  As one of ESP’s guidelines they want a master list of all attendees before the event date.  Also paying in advance is to cover the rental fee, William and I can not cover rental cost out of pocket.  So if you have friend’s coming with you who would like to be models or photographers they must contact us also or you provide names of all in the group.  There will be security posted at the front gate and everyone will have to sing in and be tagged in someway.  If your name is not on he list we can not allow you in. 

This is a quick note that is the basic idea of what will be to come.  Final details will be coming as soon as I hammer them out with ESP.

Just to give everyone an idea of where we stand there is

1 MUA (myself)
52 Photographers
23 Models

Which I am sure the numbers will grow and even out once the details are posted and the date comes closer.

Wonderful! I hope we can spend a while there, as both of us would be tempted to shoot the building just as much as the models!

That best western is within walking distance of ESP and is very reasonably priced! Just thought I would throw that in there.

When I asked about shooting there the price I got was at least $1000 and it went up based on no. of people in the crew. Expect to be paying total in the 1000's easily.

Thats for movies and tv shows ....commercial use. We are art photographers it is different. for 30 dollars you can go there and spend all day shooting the building with NO model... this group arrangement will allow us more freedom and models (i would think)

Most places though, once you add a model, it becomes commercial...
