Electric Video Preview Screening

On Saturday was the preview screening of the Electric music video! Those who were in the video, family, friends and a few industry people were invited to have a sneak peek and listen to some live music. There were a few technical dramas with the projector not working until the last minute but everything came together in the end.
The last couple of weeks has been a mad rush to write, record and finish all the songs I need to do before I head overseas so the launch seemed to come up VERY fast. We actually finished everything the morning of the launch!
Fahrenheit 45 were the support act before my set and they were great. After them I sang a couple of songs and then finally the video was played.
I will put it up here when it's released which should be soon!

In the studio

Here is a little video of me in the studio recording a song with Kenny from VHP Records. You can see my headphone hair flicks, sour strap snack breaks and us generally going a little nuts after a long day haha.

My 21st Birthday

Well I'm actually not 21 just yet but as I will be on a plane to South America on my real birthday I had my party a little earlier. I drank cocktails all night and it was good to have so many of my friends in the one place. I got a new video camera for my birthday so I will be taking some videos in South America to put up here too.

Bridal Shoot

This was a shoot for wedding dresses custom designed by Maria Gonzalez. She was working with a bridal make-up agency to do a shoot which could be used by both parties.
I had SO much fun on this shoot! There were a couple of models at the shoot all getting different dresses and hair and make-up done for each set. Though of course it was all bridal, each girl looked totally different from all the others which was cool.
My first look was the softer traditional bridal look with curls and neutral make-up but then I got to do something a bit more dramatic.
There were two photographers, one doing more commercial style shots and one doing more creative fashion shots so we kind of went from station to station getting our hair, make-up and photos done.
Had so much fun playing dress ups! Though I did get stabbed by a few pins in the process haha.
Below are some of the fashion shots taken.


And some behind the scenes...

Book Printed!

Yay! 'Eva' has been printed! It was really exciting to see it actually looking like a real book!
I also designed the cover and chapter headings so hopefully it looks ok. Now to get it made into a movie...haha I wish. First someone has to read it...

Electric Music Video - Dancing and Close Ups

Well this is the last scene of the Electric music video! We were thinking of putting in another scene but the producer is going to see how the footage looks at the moment before shooting. It might be enough cause we have some great shots.
We were shooting in a laneway against the bright graffiti walls so had to lug everything out on location. We had a boom box, ipods, speakers, lights, cameras, tripods, monopods, reflectors, clothes, make-up, shoes, snacks...but we were missing one thing...the song.
I was supposed to burn the new copy onto a C.D in the morning but I burnt it onto a DVD which didn't play in CD players. I put it onto an ipod but it promptly died as soon as I got into the city. Unfortunately the backup CD wasn't in the player either...We had to scrounge around in internet cafes to try and find the song in our emails (which thankfully I had in mine) and then burned it. Lucky! Otherwise I would be very out of sync in that section of the clip...haha.
Other dramas were cancelled trains and no make-up artists because it was last minute and on a weekday but I had heaps of fun on this shoot anyway!We started with some close ups and then did some dancing scenes. During filming it was so funny because heaps of people came up to us asking what was happening. People even asked for photos with me and my autograph which was hilarious. Maybe they wanted to keep it just incase they can sell it on ebay one day? haha.You can see a few photos here and as always there'll be behind the scenes at www.projectsundaytv.com later on.
