Pictures needed ASAP! Please help!

Postby Roguelet » Tue Jun 03, 2008 10:23 am

I need pictures QUICK! I need good (nice quality, decent background, etc.) pictures showing the complete progression of the life of a Thoroughbred from birth to old age. For example:

Mare licking newborn foal
Foals playing in field
Yearlings
TBs being ground schooled
TBs being broke to saddle
Morning training
Gate school
Racing
Winners Circle
H/J
Dressage
Steeplechasing
Stallion
Retired horse

Only Thoroughbreds please, and the pictures are needed for a TV Ad, so they must be your pictures that you agree to let be used in that manner or pictures that you can get permission for... we're not going to steal pictures! :wink:

Can anyone help? Quickly? Ad is being worked on now...

Thanks SO much!

Anyone who is interested in submitting a picture for consideration, please email the picture to: [email protected] and please include in your email a short note stating that you grant ITOBA permission to use the picture in a TV commercial, or whoever has the right to the picture has granted permission... just something to keep everyone on the straight and narrow.

Thanks, guys!

PS: This commercial will air on Indiana local TV during the BELMONT STAKES! 8)

What resolution do you need? I've got some taken at Turf Paradise in Arizona.
Pity you don't need draft horses.

I like Fancyhorse's picture on this thread.

Check out the Forum Member stallion thread, some nice photos have been imaged.

I emailed you photos but I am probably too late - pity, would have been nice to see them on a commercial.

I want to thank all of you... you guys are amazing! I received literally HUNDREDS of photos, and I have to say that some of you are extremely talented photographers!

Two of us spent many hours pouring through them all and it was very hard to weed them out. We ended up using 14 pictures, in a natural "life" progression. The commercial has been turned in to the TV folks, who might edit more based on timing and if there are any quality issues when they're converting the pictures, but I hope all 14 will make the final commercial.

During the process, we renamed the photos with numbers based on where they fell in the progression, and moved them from folder to folder, so I have to smack myself on the head and admit that I am not sure where a lot of these originated from! :roll:

Anyway, I wanted to thank each of you individually, but there were so many emails that it's just going to be way easier to thank you all together in this post. I really appreciate the way you guys always step up to the plate and help out, even on short notice.

I'd love to see the commercial, so if there is a link to it, or if it's posted on You Tube, let us know.

Just saw the preview... they used 11 of the 14 pictures and mixed up the order, which sort of killed the vision I had, but I have to say, they did a very nice job and it looks really good. And really, nobody probably would've noticed that it was in age/career progression anyway.

I have no idea how to post it or even if I'm allowed to, but I'll look into that.
