Dear cycling friends,

As many of you would know the CPF has received TAC funding to develop some YouTube video clips for bicycle riders to avoid some potential risks when riding in traffic.

The scripts for the clips have been developed with the assistance from a
number of bicycle riders.

Unfortunately there was a delay with the filming of the clips but we now have a new production company DIGICAST, and we have set three days for filming:

9, 10. and 11. December 2008

Filming will be happening from 9am to 5pm; potentially one of the scenarios will need to be filmed after hours.

We are urgently seeking volunteer "actors" for the filming.

This requires a person to be available for a minimum of 3 hours on one of
the days. Most actors will only need to cycle and not speak at all.

We also need to some volunteers with cars for the scenario on car doors.

The filming will be happening in the City of Yarra.

The CPF will be able to reimburse people for travelling costs and child care
costs if required.

Thank you for considering to assist with this great project.

The clips will be launched at the Sustainable Living Festival in February
2008 at Federation Square.

If you are available on one of those days for at least three hours can you
email or contact the CPF office. Let us know which day you would be
available PM or AM and give us your contact details.

Kind regards

Rosemarie Speidel

Ooh... could be time to resurrect my 'acting' career Last film I appeared in (as an unpaid extra) was 21 years ago in 'Dogs in Space'! I haven't seen it in 21 years either. Hopefully it comes out on DVD before I'm senile

Cigarettes, I think. I was in some of the gig crowd scenes, with Michael Hutchence falling over the floor. In the closing credits close up of Saskia Post, I'm standing right behind her. Seeing my noggin on the big screen was a surprise! I'd love to see it again. There's been talk of it being released on DVD for the past couple of years, but I've yet to see it
