MASSIVE PRISON TV SERIES PROJECT
Hi everyone,
Our business partner in Los Angeles is close to securing a deal that would cover a massive 52 episode TV series that speaks about some of history's most notorious prison escapes from around the world.
There will be a huge need for content (both ground and aerial) covering a wide range of topics. This is a great opportunity for members of this group to participate and collaborate if you are interested.
Below is the first list of B-Roll footage that is being requested by the producers. Granted, some of this will simply be impossible to get, but a large portion is something I am convinced can be obtained. The list covers a mix of ground and aerial footage that some of you may have, or are capable of getting.
This is a big test for us, and an opportunity to position ourselves favourably in the eyes of this client.
I have created a Google Drive folder so you can upload content that you believe would fit the description. If you upload content, please make sure your name is on the file name. I want to make sure this is properly documented so we know who provided what.
The link to the Google Drive folder is:

If you have any footage of the below list, please let me know. If you know anyone who would have footage, please do recommend them to this group.
Good luck everyone,
Cheers
