Looking for Rubik's Cube Experts!

[leogreen]

Hi all,

I work for a production company who are shooting a film which will focus on a Rubik's Cube being operated quickly. Cool animation will be involved on it; but we're looking for one of you speed solvers to be featured. If anyone is interested please PM me, and I can send you the details, the reference video and answer any questions you might have.

The shoot date will be mid-february in London, so keep this in mind.

Thanks!

Not the fastest sighted solver in the world, but if 20s avg is sufficient then why not. Check your inbox!

Just PM 5bld and be done with it.

If you look at it this way everyone is an expert lol. Rowan and Robert are fast and they are close to your area.

Hey guys, thanks for your replies.

Yes, 20seconds average will suit our needs for this. We may potentially have a casting day in London next wednesday, so anyone who wants to get involved go ahead and email me and I will try and send everyone the details who is interested!

Thanks.

You should bear in mind that Leicester Open is on the weekend of the 23rd, so many of the UK's best will be there!

Thanks again guys for the replies!

If anyone would like to send me any videos of themselves speedsolving that would be great; we're hoping to have a look at everyone who's interested and potentially have a casting session in London next week.

Most people have videos on youtube - and if you find someone on this forum there's a pretty good chance their youtube is linked right under their username, so you can watch them do some solves. If you're willing to put in the time, you can go through some of the top UK cubers (http://worldcubeassociation.org/res...ngdom&years=&show=100+Persons&average=Average) and search for them on youtube directly.

The speedsolving usernames of the top ten on that list: 5BLD, gasmus, Robert-Y, Kirjava, Escher, MTGjumper, joey, SEBUVER, kinch2002, chrisness.

I never realised how few UK cubers have got sub 10 averages.

 

[Clarkeeyyy]

Do you know if any scottish cubers have sub 10 averages?

 

[speedpicker]

Breandan Vallance is Scottish and one of the best solvers in the world. 8.32 average, 7.40 single.

Thanks for that, have now been in contact with those gentleman.

Just thought I'd post again to see if there's anyone else who would like to come to a casting session in London on Wednesday? The way the script is looking, we don't necessarily need sub-20 average guys, so if you feel you're quick and would like to be involved please email me at;

I can send you some demos we have knocked up and more about the film.

Thanks alot!

Another post from me -

Is there a general consensus on which Cubes are the best, or is it personal preference?

Are there a couple of brands/types that are considered the best? I will now search the forum for a thread on this as well!

Thanks.
