6 Countries in 6 Days

An emotional couple of weeks. I flew home for a beautiful send off for Nanna. Wouldn't have missed it for the world. So I flew through it, shot a music video, recovered from flu, had my 2nd Henneversary, and a lot of other memories. Here are some of them.

Sweden

Denmark
Czech Rep



Metronom, Prague. Henneversary, same place, same time. Lucky girl.
Dr Bodyguard, my favourite Czech physio.

Edinburgh festival was great! Writing soon! For now, photos!Aindrias De Staic.



Andrew McClelland, wonderful Melbourne comedian... fingers crossed he is in Czech Rep next week starring in my new music video for Miou Miou.


Claudia and David O'Doherty my fave Irish comedian.


Jumping for joy, as usual.

I saw some amazing films and had fun helping Aindrias promote his show, he got great reviews and coverage in the paper. I met GREAT people through the film festival including the man whose work inspired me to actually make ELEVEN, so that was super. More soon... I am packing... Off to Sweden tomorrow, shooting my 11 yr olds then Czech Rep next week for shooting. Meanwhile please visit www.genbailey.com to links for portable film festival. I have 7 entries in this year.

Demons and Angels

Click here to view my new blogYesterday I went to see Irvine and Hannah aged 11, at their drumming competition. Man the steel drums are so COOL! It is hard to keep still when filming, I cant stop moving to the beat. Has anyone ever heard them in Oz? I am hooked.

3rd prize. They shoulda won. Not that winning is everything ...
Then Milo aged 2 weeks had a go for my camera!

Meet ASTI aged 9, one of the main stars of my new Dogumentary, its been a long time between Dogumentaries, but this one is going be gold! Asti will explain how a supermodel requested him for a 4 day photoshoot overseas paying about AU 7500, but how once his Mum heard it was for Naomi Campbell she refused. You know, after all that mad phone throwing press.. He might not be safe! Stay tuned...

My new blog

Hey kompis

I have started a new blog. Write me if you would like the link. If not stare in to the eyes of Bosco the most beautiful 4 legged man in my life these days.

I will still be blogging here, the new one is about my travel adventures for a more public audience... ie / crazy stories and dog pics will stay here.

I would like to hear from you

How are you?

Wow it has been a long time between posts.. how are you?

The Movie We Made - for Nick

SO, I don't really blog that often and when I do I never get round to mentioning all the stuff we have been up to, but , here are a few highlights from this hectic week.
We just finished shooting a new music video for the wonderful Nick Huggins, it was a lot of fun.
The song is called 'Movie We Made' and you can listen to it here www.myspace.com/apocketfullofstones. He is an excellent producer too... A boy to keep an eye on...

New videos coming this month for Eva Popov, Simon Moore and a few other treats...






This week we are going up to Sydney for a conference where I will be doing a pitch ...
Fingers crossed.
After a very sad and distressing week it was refreshing to be able to finish it off by focussing on smiles like this.





Nothing like a bit of harmonious over achieving brothers rocking out in front of a happy crowd at a great venue. I can't believe they might be turning the Palais Theatre in to apartments??? Craziness.


Evermore played with a 21 piece Zulu choir visiting from South Africa for the first time. Man do those guys let off good energy.
You can watch some of my work videos here www.heraldsun.com.au
Evermore acoustic performance and interview, APRA awards, what else, oh David shot a tiger and snow leapord getting their teeth fixed at the zoo, that is on there too!

The clock is ticking and I am leaving Melbourne soon, excited to shoot and see all my friends overseas, and excited to meet more 11 year olds. Let me know where you will be in July :)
Enough for now. I have 4980 photographs to tend to...
