  Dear 3 wheeler owner

*3 wheelers wanted for film & TV*

A free website has been launched from within the UK film and TV industry in
a search for interesting, unusual and previously unseen vehicles and other
props to hire as set dressing and action vehicles in foreground and
background of feature films and TV productions.

Productions will pay upwards of £500 per day for unique and eye-catching
vehicles, of every description and from every decade of the past 120 years.

While you know that your 3 wheeler is a head turner and extremely
photogenic, you will probably have dismissed the thought of getting it to
screen because you do not know what programmes are being made or who to
contact, and perhaps believe that your vehicle is located too far from any
TV or film studio. But every year thousands of productions are filmed on
location throughout the UK;  movies, television dramas,  TV commercials,
documentaries, photo shoots for billboards, magazines and book covers, trade
shows, presentations, shop window dressing etc - and they all need props.

This new website, www.moviepropbay.com was launched on 1st November to make
it easy for art departments to search for and source vehicles and other
props wherever they are shooting in the UK.

It is FREE to register on the site, FREE to list photographs and a
description of your vehicle on the site and NO COMMISSIONS are payable - you
deal directly with the production company. Hiring guidelines can be found on
the FAQs page.

And there are added bonuses: in addition to the kudos gained by seeing
your 3 wheeler on screen, you may be paid as an extra to drive it through
the shot. (And if a production turns out to be a box office/TV smash hit,
the value of the vehicle is enhanced by becoming film memorabilia!)

Yours sincerely

John Manning
