Refer to my previous thread.... I have the dudes, girls and jerseys ....all prepared liao ..... but TFCD ....hmmmmm .... a bit difficult....at least must give them a BIG treat if you want to execute your concept..let me know if you are keen to 'activate' my whole setup ;p
 

I remember I went into this basketball craze after I read the comic :lovegrin: . Anyway if you want to find some tall-hand (高手) you can scout them out from CC. I used to frequent the old paya lebar CC (opposite is a swiming pool) long long time ago :sweat: . Now the new one is near the macdonald. A lot of young guys will play there almost everyday. The famous bedok CC also has a lot of 高手...

If you want, you can email to schools like ITE, poly and U. Ask them whether you can post a small notice on their ECA board to ask for models. Who knows? you may get tremendeous response for this shoot.

Haha, wa....sorry man. I only joined CS in Sep last year. Nice to know that you have got your preps ready. :)

I want to shoot in a storyline style (romance, brotherhood, sportsmanship, not just basketball). Are you thinking in this direction? I'll see how things go. The right people or the right character is very important.

Cheers, bro!

Alright, someone asked about the characters. Here's the list. ^_^ (The character list will expand in the future.)

Shohoku High School Basketball Team

Hanamichi Sakuragi
(桜木花道 Sakuragi Hanamichi)

Year: 1st Year
Height/Weight: 188 cm, 83 kg -> 189.2 cm, 83 kg
Jersey Number: #10
Position: Power Forward (PF)
Birthday: April 1
Character Traits: At the beginning of the series, Sakuragi was a slacker, always trying to ask girls out but getting constantly rejected (the 50th rejection occurring at the start of the series). He then met Akagi Haruko, with whom he fell in love immediately. This passion led to him joining the Shohoku basketball team. However, as a complete beginner, he was not able to keep up with the rest of the team at first despite his physical attributes (great height, athleticism, stamina, speed and leaping ability). He regards himself as a genius though, with self-confidence that borders on arrogance. His most recognizable trait is his red hair, though he shaves his head as reparation for an error that led to the loss against Kainan.
At first, Sakuragi was known for his poor basketball skills as a beginner; in his first few official matches, he fouled out every game. However, his basketball skills advanced throughout the series. First he developed his basic skills, such as dribbling and layups. Then, trained by Akagi, he became a formidable rebounder; his rebounding became his claim to fame throughout the latter half of the series. His jump shooting was then developed by Coach Anzai, who had him make 20,000 shots in a week. He hit a buzzer-beating jump shot to win the match against Sannoh. However, he also injured his back during the match against Sannoh, and underwent rehabilitation after Shohoku's subsequent loss to Aiwa Academy.
In spite of the setbacks he has had to face, Sakuragi displays a great deal of tenacity and determination that carry him through and help reciprocate for his other failings, both on and off the court. Although his love for Haruko and rivalry with Rukawa are the main driving forces motivating him to succeed in basketball, his injury during the Sannoh match makes him realize that he has actually come to love the game, leading him to give his all for his team and bring them victory.

Kaede Rukawa
(流川楓 Rukawa Kaede)

Year: 1st Year
Height/Weight: 187 cm, 75 kg
Jersey Number: #11
Position: Small Forward (SF)
Birthday: January 1
Character Traits: Rukawa Kaede is, in many ways, the opposite of Sakuragi - attractive to girls, skilled at basketball, and very cold and unfeeling. He regards Sakuragi as an idiot, and is not shy about calling him an idiot to his face - actually, he knows Sakuragi can put his talents to a better use, but is ashamed to see the immaturity with which he deals with things. His hobby is sleeping, and is usually seen asleep whenever he's not on the court; he can even ride his bike while asleep. Waking Rukawa from a nap is considered unforgivable, since he'll almost automatically beat up the culprit; unsurprisingly, he's been in his fair share of off-court fights, but can hold his own. Rukawa's goal is to be the best high school player in Japan, and he considers Sendoh of Ryonan to be his greatest rival.
Rukawa is extremely good at basketball, and possesses a wide range of skills to complement his height, athleticism and drive to win. Despite being merely a first-year high school player, he is the undisputed ace of Shohoku's team. He has managed to change the course of many a game, such as when he single-handedly brought Shohoku back from a double-digit deficit against Kainan. However, his style was criticized as being too selfish, and he sometimes comes into conflict with his teammates for various reasons; this was one of the reasons why Anzai-sensei refused to give him his blessing when Rukawa told him that he intended to go to the USA, and told him to become the best in Japan before he even thought of it. When he was outplayed by Sawakita during the match against Sannoh Technical, though, he realized that he had to change his style and pass the ball. It was his pass that led to Hanamichi's buzzer-beating shot, winning the match. Rukawa is subsequently named a member of the All-Japan basketball team.

Ryota Miyagi
(宮城リョータ Miyagi Ryōta)

Year: 2nd Year
Height/Weight: 168 cm, 59 kg
Jersey Number: #7
Position: Point Guard (PG)
Birthday: July 31
Character Traits: Miyagi Ryota is Sakuragi's closest friend on the team. After an initial misunderstanding that caused conflict between them (he was fighting Mitsui when Sakuragi and Ayako came around, and he thought she was dating him), both found comraderie in the fact that they had both been unlucky in love, although Miyagi, having only been rejected 10 times, still falls short of Sakuragi's record. Like Sakuragi, Miyagi is motivated to play by his love for a girl: his best friend and classmate Ayako, the manager of the team, whom he refers to as "Aya-chan". He has been known to pose for Ayako during matches. Off-court, Miyagi has a reputation for being a bad boy. He was hospitalized for a while after his fight against Mitsui's gang.
Miyagi is small for a basketball player, but makes up for it with incredible speed, skills, and court awareness. His skills are typical of a point guard: strong passing and dribbling, as well as an understanding of the game that allows him to be a floor leader. He also shares a similar level of arrogance with Sakuragi, claiming to be the number one point guard in the prefecture, though popular opinion among characters in the series ranks him just behind Maki of Kainan and Fujima of Shoyo. In the series he is often pitted against taller point guards but he is able to beat them with his incredible speed.
 

Kainan University Affiliated High School Basketball Team

Shinichi Maki
(牧紳一 Maki Shin'ichi)

Year: 3rd Year
Height/Weight: 184 cm, 79 kg
Jersey Number: #4
Position: Point Guard/Center (if Takasago is out)
Birthday: N/A
Character Traits: Maki Shinichi is reputed to be the best player in the whole prefecture of Kanagawa. Captain of Kainan High, he exerts great leadership over his team, being quite a field leader whose orders are followed to the letter by his team mates. Hanamichi calls him "Old Man" because he looks older than he really is; Maki responds by pointing out that Akagi looks even older. Kenji Fujima is considered his primary rival.
Maki plays mostly as a point guard, although he has the all-round skills to play in virtually any other position. Extremely muscular and strong, he likes to use his physical attributes to drive into the lane to score while drawing fouls. His scoring ability is incredibly difficult to stop and in one game four players were needed to completely shut him down. When teams double or triple-team him, he can then pass the ball to open teammates on the perimeter, such as Soichiro Jin, for open three-point shots. Maki uses his height and power to create mismatches against other point guards, which his team usually capitalizes on effectively.

Nobunaga Kiyota
(清田信長 Kiyota Nobunaga)

Year: 1st Year
Height/Weight: 178 cm, 65 kg
Jersey Number: #10
Position: Small Forward
Birthday: N/A
Character Traits: Nobunaga Kiyota is what could be called the personification of arrogance. He is always bragging about how he's the real star rookie of Kanagawa, instead of Rukawa. However, he tends to underestimate other teams, especially Shohoku, and this can lead to embarrassing situations, such as when Akagi flattened him with a dunk. Kiyota likes to call Hanamichi "Red-furred Monkey" while Hanamichi calls him "Jungle Monkey." His admiration for his captain, Maki, is almost crush-like; whe he learnt that Maki was well-known outside of KAnagawa, he literally went googly-eyed at him.
Kiyota is known for his leaping ability and ball-handing skills. Despite being only 178 cm, he can dunk and block shots quite regularly. He memorably dunked over Uozumi during Kainan's match against Ryonan. Kiyota is the only starter for Kainan who is a 1st year.

Soichiro Jin
(神総一郎 Jin Sōichirō)

Year: 2nd Year
Height/Weight: 189 cm, 71 kg
Jersey Number: #6
Position: Shooting Guard
Birthday: N/A
Character Traits: Jin is, if not the best, one of the best sharpshooters in Kanagawa, matched only by Mitsui. He originally used to be a center, but his slender build never allowed him to perform well in this position, so he became a shooting guard, where he could put his talents to better use. Jin became well-versed in 3-pointers as a result of making 500 3 point shots a day after practice. Jin knows Fukuda from junior high school because they were both on the basketball team.


Girl 1:

Haruko Akagi
(赤木晴子 Akagi Haruko)
Year: 1st Year
Character Traits: Haruko is Takenori's younger sister and Sakuragi's love interest. Sweet and with a captivating personality, Haruko is always around to cheer on the players, especially her brother Takenori (who is extremely protective of her and taught her the basics of basketball) and Sakuragi, whom she considers as her best friend. Haruko often appears at matches together with Sakuragi's cohorts and her two best friends, Fujii and Matsui. She, like most girls in Shohoku High, only has eyes for Kaede, although he never reciprocates her feelings and, later in the anime, she aknowledges that he won't love her the way she wants him to and partially lets go of her crush.
Haruko was responsible for uncovering Sakuragi's athletic talent after seeing him try to dunk a ball at her request - she was impressed by the height of his jump and considered him good enough to join the team. Hanamichi always listens to Haruko, due to his deep affection for her. They have gone on some (what Sakuragi considers) non-official dates have occasionally trained together.
Despite her emotional denseness and sweetness, Haruko is a pretty good student (she helped Akagi tutor Sakuragi and the other three starters when they had to retake some tests) and is not afraid to stand up for others when needed. She confronted Sakuragi when she mistakenly thought that he had attacked Rukawa, and she also defended him many times from Kaede's most rabid fangirls (one of them even knocked her to the ground in the anime series).

Girl 2:

A girl who falls in love with 流川楓.
