Photographing the cats required 7-8 staffers. 2-3 staffs were assigned to put on and take off the costumes, one photographer and assistant, one to take care of accessory items and the set, while another was required to guide the kittens to pose and face the camera. The team had to prepare the set and accessories 2 hours before the shoot. Although photo sessions took place once every 3 days, it wasn't always possible to have motorbike models, costumes and miscellaneous items ready, which meant photo shoots often, had to be rescheduled. Once the costumes are put on the kittens we had to take the photos within 10 minutes. Even with all the tricks we used to get the kittens in the position we want, after about 10 minutes they usually become uninterested. In that case there would be nothing more we could do, and we didn't want to photograph them running around the set and destroying things. The kittens also had very sharp claws and would make tears and rips in their costumes. It was really all up to the kittens and the team could but only wait patiently for the right moment to shoot the right photos. On many occasions there would be people from the press and media watching our photo shoot, so we had to make sure they didn't distract the kittens in any way. Normally we would get the front shots of the kittens, because the kittens tend to look rather hunched from the side and that didn't go well with what they were wearing either. *For each one or two photo sessions, it was great if we had 1 or 2 photos we considered good enough.
