Surprise

Brother John arranged a suprise party for Marcus on the weekend. We were all to wear gowns/cape, and a mask of Marcus, and gather at night in a park. The rest is history.




Missing someone!



Nicole and John got competitive... big time!


I have never seen John dance so hard in his life. It was like the Rock Esteiddfod he never had.








I went to Abbostford convent Makers market where Sophie and Maddie were selling their lovely works.





Suday night I had dinner with John, Yoni, Vikrant who I hope to meet up with in India shooting ELEVEN, Sian and Mr Rueben who played us a few original songs. He is really great!





Poppa turns 88!

Tokyo friends?

Do you know anyone in Tokyo? Someone who is 11 or might know 11 year olds?
I am seeking someone for my feature documentary ELEVEN

Any ideas appreciated. www.iameleven.com

This is going to be my best film to date! I really look forward to being back in Tokyo. If you have ever thought about going to Japan, do it! It's wonderful.

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.

Switzerland



Thailand





Australia. Greeted by these beautiful faces.

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...
