Cyclists needed for Euro '16 TV commercial

A lady got in touch with me today wondering if any club members would be interested in starring in a tv commercial.
It will be an ad featuring lots of different scenes basically along the lines of 'the whole country are behind the boys in green in the Euros'. There will be people getting their faces painted and others packing suitcases but the scene we're needed for is a group dressed in Irish jerseys on their way to the ferry ( not actually getting on)
Each cyclist will be paid around €150 for about half a day's filming. Filming will take place either 23rd or 24th March.
There are 15 cyclists needed. Reply below if interested.

Sorry Ann.
Didn't read your post properly.
Lorraine is not a club member.
So that's just myself and George.

There has been lots of interest in this from club members. So what you need to do now is send a short video clip saying why you would like to get behind the boys in green. ( maybe include bikes)

The guy I was talking to yesterday said that there hasn't been that much interest from cyclists so ye'd have a great chance of getting on the ad. He said you could get together and send a clip as a group or separately.

I have attached all details below. All videos to be shot horizontally.

By the way there is no limit to the amount of people who can send in video clips as the most suitable applicants will be chosen.
Also include that you are a cyclist with Orwell wheelers cc on the email application because the guy I was talking to yesterday said it suits them to get a group of people who are familiar with each other for more natural banter on camera. In other words they'd be happier to take 15 people who know each other.

Yeah there's Jackie, me and Graham Scanlon along with the rest of our bunch of mates with the Euro-88 replica jerseys we designed for our trip to the Alps in 2013. There's a second, longer version of the ad that'll be shown in some TV slots and we're in that twice I believe. I wore my new Scott Orwell gloves and did a no-hands-on-bars clap to ensure some Orwell kit got some screen time but you'd need to still-frame it on a 4K TV to pick them up!

Thanks to Ann Horan for raising the suggestion of contacting the production company and to Graham who took up the negotiations from there. It was great craic for the day of filming down in Arklow, best bit was the scene where we lead the way and then the whole convoy of tractors, cars, campervans and a double decker bus overtake us full of fans roaring at us. I'll be wearing my kit in Paris on the weekend of the Sweden going 'we're the cyclists from the ad' and generally wrecking everyones' heads (even moreso than usual :)).

Despite cycling in -0 degrees up and down the N11 decked out in nothing more than summer kit I had a blast. Cant believe so much work went into such a short clip. Loved the gear the lads designed we all looked great in it on the day. Graham was up front manning the walkie talkie with the instructions from the crew. Watching it tonight as it launches on the Champions League.
Thanks Ann for the opportunity and thanks Graham and Jules was good craic. GBAL ☺
