Here's a few pictures Scott took while we were filming the last part of the new how-to video. Earlier in the day we shot the how-to portion and then after we buffed out the car Yancy came down, (about 8:30pm), and we filmed applying the wax to the Camaro.


Here's Yancy micing PJ

Yancy actually runs two cameras at the same time... talk about "talented" :dblthumb2:

If you look to the left in this picture you'll see the slate that we use to mark each shot and also synchronize the two tapes for editing puposes...

Wiping the wax off... this was the ending shot of PJ and I and then Yancy came in and captured beauty shots...

Here's a couple more shots of the project until I post the write-up on Monday...

This is Chris the owner of the Camaro. Until this project Chris had never machine polished a car before so with a few lessons he's comfortable with the machine and buffing like a Pro!

Did a full write up ever get posted for this car?

Nope, not yet... should be on the forum tomorrow...

Sometimes it seems there's not a lot of interest in the write-ups from these projects, at least there's not a lot of follow-up questions or replies to the threads...

I like to create the write-ups but processing the pictures in manner that everyone can click the thread and see them without having to "click on attachments" or "horizontal scroll" is time consuming.

I plan on working late tonight and processing the pictures and creating the thread then I'll post it.

No worries Mike, I feel your pain. I take a lot of time to do reviews and write ups, and more often than not I get replies only from my forum buddies. If you have the time to do the write up I would really enjoy it, but I totally understand if you don't want to.

Oh no.. I want to... if for no other reason for posterity... once the write up is uploaded along with the pictures Google indexes it and even if no one replies to the thread it gets thousands of views a year, year after year.

So there's value in finishing what you've started.


Just finished compound testing in the studio, have to write a report and then I'll start going through the pictures and pick out the ones that,

A. Are in focus :D
B. Show people having fun
C. Tell a story



It's all good...



:dblthumb2:
 
***Update***

Got through the pictures... will have them up tomorrow...
