How do I set the base model from a basecontroller in asp.net mvc

Question

Hey Guys

I've got a BaseController that all of my site's controllers inherit from.

I've got a BaseModel that all of my Models inherit from.

I want to set my BaseModel in my BaseController's OnActionExecuting method and make it available to the specific model in the specific controller.

Is something like that possible?

Something like this?

 protected override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
        {
            filterContext.Controller.ViewData.Model = new BaseViewModel();;
        }
