Got Clay? ABC’s putting them on TV!

You know, it can be pretty darn difficult to find non-trademarked photos of clay models on the web.  Thank you google and iStock for helping me finally find ONE that I could use.  Regardless, we have a neat little bit of info for those students & professionals who have a spare clay model sitting around in their homes in Detroit.

ABC, the network that brought me my favorite Thursday show LOST (and NOT Grey’s Anatomy), is working on a pilot for an upcoming show based on the goings-on of the auto industry in a family-owned car company.  The show’s producers are looking for clay models of cars to populate scenes.  Your cut is $100 per model as a rental fee.  The show will pick the models up from your home and do all of the transportation… you just tell them where to go and stick out your grubby little palm for the cash.

For more info, contact Beth Marmarelli at the College for Creative Studies at bmarmarelli [at] collegeforcreativestudies [dot] edu

We’ll be expecting a cut of your $100 now.
