Hello everyone,

My name is Andrew Cleave, based in the UK

Following on from the worldwide success of 'Casino Royale' featuring Daniel Craig as the new James Bond, we are in the tendering process for action sequences for the new Bond film. We are currently at the creative idea stage.

Given the success of the freerunning/parkour sequence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ovojHaug7U featuring Sebastien Foucan in 'Casino Royale', the scriptwriters are looking for similar ideas based on new physical disciplines/sports. We are proposing shorter action sequences but more of them. The 'parkour' scene has set the bar very high but we are confident we can succeed in bettering it.

After a wide search of the internet, one of these new disciplines/sports mentioned in our discussions was 'professional treeclimbing'.

Our 'treeclimbing' idea would involve a chase/action sequence incorporating the tools, equipment, machinery and techniques of the professional treeclimber.

If we are successful in our bid to perform the action sequences we would require on site guidance from a number of professional treeclimbers and non speaking body double treeclimbing parts in the final film.

What we need from you is your opinions on suggestive scenarios that would make for an exciting sequence. It has to be dramatic and exciting as possible using your knowledge of treeclimbing techniques, equipment, machinery and tools.
It could be filmed anywhere in the world, and cost is not an issue.

A very basic scenario would be 'Political assassin chases Bond through the canopy of a city parkland'. This is very basic I understand but hopefully with your discussion we could add meat to the bones of this simple idea?

Please post ideas on this page as this allows any member of our team to look in on your discussion and make a note of your name for future contact.

Film making and action sequences in particular are a rewarding area to be involved in we hope you can help us win our bid and join our team in the final film making process.

I have made a request for help at www.????????.com
