DRAMA! I could got in prison during shootings flash in public near Putin's residence.
 

Here is a story that happend during this summer 2006 outside of Saint Petersburg near the city of fountaines Petergof. I was shooting one model "Flash in public" style for our client and one of pic set and video must be near the road and the driver (he was a friend of the model) showed me the good place to shoot this scene and I have agreed, it was a small cafe behind us with a lot if people and across the street in was a really huge nice Castle far from the road behind the fence. Wich was the Putin's (president of Russia) residence in Saint Petersburg and (but i have no idea what is that, because I am from Ukraine and live in Saint Petersburg just a couple month) it was a couple days before "BIG 8 sammit". So I start shooting her and after the pic set we come back to the car and i took the video camera to shoot the video and when we came back to the place where we were shooting the pic set, I have not had time to turn on the camera as 2 guys came to us. They were 2 cops wearing regular clothes and working for FSB (Federal Security service) and asked me "What are fuck are you doing here?" i told them i am shooting my girlfriend for our private collection. Their answear was "We do not care about this shit, do you know what that building is?" and they showed me the Castle. I told them "I have no fucking idea what that building is". They asked me "Are you local?". I told them that I am from Ukraine, thats why i do not care about that building. They told shut up the camera and move our asses out there. We sit in the car but other car has blocked departure for us. Guy went out from the car and showed his cop documents to the driver in couple minutes another car came with 5 people in it, they have a mashine guns Kalashnikov. I was frightened. We went to police department and testified there. After 5 hours spent in police department cops have given us the summons in court and have told to arrive tomorrow at 8 o'clock in the morning. Next day we came at 8 am in the court. to be short - I got the penalty at a rate of 40 dollars and the model went to prizon for 10 days of hooliganism. The judge has told that to me very much has carried because I from Ukraine and they do not wish to inflate the international scandal before the summit, therefore to me have given the penalty. And if I would be the citizen of Russia I have received 15 daysin the prizon.
Thanxx God I am from Ukraine:thumbsup
Here a photo of the decision of the judge

This isn't drama. But 10/10 for trying to fit in.

wow , your lucky you didnt just vanish one day :)

My general rule of thumb is never stand near houses owned by presidents.. but hey thats just me..

Maybe you should consult "Mr. Obvious" before doing something like that again. :1orglaugh

poor model

Fuck! Poor girl ...

:Oh crap :Oh crap

Now that's something you don't hear very often. :D

You dont seem to be concerned for the girl that got locked up.

Next time, try checking out the laws and penalties of what you intend to do, before putting people at risk of going to jail.

You better hope the girl has no crazy brothers or boyfriend, they may come looking for you, just a thought :winkwink:

She is ok! She went out from prizon, nobody touched her. She still in biz

At first, Model know about her risk. Her crazy brother or boyfriend is not a trouble, i have a lot's of prople standing behind me. :thumbsup

hmmm shooting public nude in fron ot goermental residence... is'nt wise at all :Oh crap
you're lucky to get off that lightly

does your piss seem to glow blue lately?

I agree .. you should know where your shooting especially if your shooting outside . It all seems very unprofessional to me. I'm thinking if he just left instead of being a bit of a wise ass he would have been better off also ...

Really? so why did you not use these people who are "standing behind you" to get the girl off going to jail. seems to me you gave the cops real fucking attitude so thats why you and the girl got arrested.

Wow, I feel bad for the model....would be nice if you showed a bit of concern for her

We try to help her with this shit, but she signed up all the documents under the cops pressure while she was in the court. After that we cann't help her even with my people.

This post is useless without pics! Sorry, it needed to be said.

heh, was about to say the same :thumbsup

Compact flash card and all photos have been confiscated by police. Sorry

sorry for the poor girl but your english is funny @ least in this post.

not in a bad way either

You haven't learned how to hide a flash card in your anal cavity yet? And you call yourself a Ukranian. lol

They know that i have a camera and i took the pics if i hide the the flash card or erase all the pics they could thought that i was shooting the Putin's residence and i want to make a terrorist act during the "BIG 8 sammit".

Oh! You have a dangerouse job!

so the drama is that you had a girl locked up for 10 days?

At least it wasn't in your basement. Shit...I've said too much.

Yeah, I was just kidding with you, man. If the KGB wanted my camera, flash card, first born child, whatever...it's theirs...no complaints. Not too much scares me...but Russians are on the short list.

She were shooting voluntary. Why you told me that I had locked a girl?

What do you mean saying Russian are on a short list?

bump, bump

nice grammar, did you teach yourself?

Xakep????

bahahahaa

By the way, the results Star's work on Flishlight are great. I saw and people will see soon.

So that's great, you got off with a $40 fine and the model goes to jail for 10 days. You sound like a stand up guy.
WG

We need pictures...

Rule 1 - dont fuck with russians

theres only 1 rule.

And just 1000 rubles...in order not to inflate the international scandal before the summit..that is politics...if they found drugs they wouldnt arrest you while there's a big political issue on the agenda..

Glad you and the girl are ok after the ordeal.

HAHAHA. A clasic one liner.

just be glad it is 2006 not 1976..............

i feel sorry for the model

holy moly

LOL at people comparing Russian cops/law with what he shoulda done if in the US. There is a lot of запутанность in this thread :)

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :thumbsup

Just like what others say--this thread demands pics! :thumbsup

maybe you should learn where your location is before shooting? especially if it's in public.

holy fucking paragraphs....

Not sure how this is drama, but if I'm ever near Putin's residence I shall remember to keep my clothes on

As I maentioned above i hve no pics from this shooting cops took my flash card and never get back to me. :(
