RaptorBoyASU Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Hmmm, I can actually make KD, CP, and SFA. I haven't done one of these since I worked at CP.
robbalvey Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 ^ You would be great! Please be sure to email them!
Voxelmatic Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Is there an age limit to this? There probably is, but I can make it to at least SFA.
Zem Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Awesome! I may be able to make the Over Texas occasion. I'll have to see how my schedule will work out but I hope I can head down there for my birthday.
Twister II Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 I did this a few months ago and had a great time! Just keep in mind this is television, and not a normal day at the park. As our field producer said, "TV is a bunch of hurry up and wait." You could be standing around for 4 hours until you actually get to ride, but once you're on, you'll be on for a few hours! Nonetheless, I had a great experience with Indigo Films and was astounded by their professionalism. This is something I will always remember!
robbalvey Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 Is there an age limit to this? There probably is, but I can make it to at least SFA. They didn't tell me if there was, but submit the email and hope you get a message back!
joco07 Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 If anyone goes to the SFoT on 13th you should say hi to me! I'll be working/doing a VIP Tour that day! I might go to the 14th one, but I would have to ask my boss if it would be ok. I been in 2 commercials for SFoT and wouldn't mind at all doing a TV Show!
Taylor Finn Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Can you do just one of the two days, or do they expect you there both days?
thrillrider Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 I am all set to attend the film shoot at cedarpoint. Got an email confo today.
RissaBooBissa Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 I emailed my info in for the SFOT shoot. Hope I get picked!!
Voxelmatic Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 If I sign up for the shoot at SFA, will I still have a bit of time in the morning to get my Apocalypse credit and take a spin or two on Wild One?
CViolaOfficial Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 AHHHHHHHH, if only they'd come to Six Flags Great Adventure one more time, or Hershey Park (Skyrush). Ahhh, maybe next time. I'm loving these new roller coaster TV shows though. As a fellow thrill park junkie, I crave these thrills and would be perfect for any show. Stinks that the nearest one to me is SFA.
robbalvey Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 Can you do just one of the two days, or do they expect you there both days? - What parks/dates you are available for
robbalvey Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 I emailed my info in for the SFOT shoot. Hope I get picked!! If you told them you were a 22yr old female with a photo, you probably have a good chance as that's kind of a rare thing in this business!
robbalvey Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 If I sign up for the shoot at SFA, will I still have a bit of time in the morning to get my Apocalypse credit and take a spin or two on Wild One? You are signing up for a film shoot, not a day at the park. If you sign up and they pick you, you need to commit to whatever their schedule is which may or may not include time to do other stuff on your own. If you're not willing to do that, don't send the email.
robbalvey Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 I hope I can get on as long as I get paid This is not a paying gig.
narkitty Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 This is so exciting. I just sent off an email. I hope I get picked!
TyRush Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 I hope I can get on as long as I get paid This is not a paying gig. Your payment is endless ERT on the best ride(s) at the park for 3 hours.
soldier148 Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Going to Cedar Point for a school trip on October 20! Already submitted info, really excited!
Taylor Finn Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Can you do just one of the two days, or do they expect you there both days? - What parks/dates you are available for I would assume the 21st at Cedar Point would work. I can't afford a whole weekend away from college, not do I want to get a hotel for the night.
DATman Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 My only question is whether we have to pay for park admission or not. Because I would love to do it at Kings Dominion as I've never been, but if we have to pay for admission I might as well go as a guest. Even then, this is an awesome opportunity for everyone to do something fun on some of the best rides, and it's really fantastic of the Travel Channel to reach out to you Robb!
madvaz Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Any idea what's the name of the show will be so I can keep a look out to record it? madvaz
