Shooting Matt Costa
In case you didn't notice I haven't been blogging on this one for a while, usually my old blog! But, I have been shooting people, most recently - Matt Costa!
I met him while shooting an interview for work. He broke in to a song - Genevieve. Twas nice! Sometimes when I introduce myself people say 'Oh, Genevieve, like the car.' But never has someone broke in to song, so, he was off to a good start...
and only got better!
He is young and full of great songs, lives in California and is signed to Brushfire Records.
He played to over 10,000 people on a chilly wet night at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, and did a few duets with Jack Johnson. It's crazy that 10 days prior it was 40 degrees!
It's pretty uplifting seeing someone do exactly what they should be, I have this feeling when I see lots of musician friends, Eva, Nick, Jens ... the list goes on.
'Feeding time'
Check him out here too.

Eleven
I have found 2 new boys to interview for ELEVEN, Obey I met through a boxing club in the east end. Billy is chatty and lives in Angel. South of France next week to shoot more for Eleven.
Had a good time at Sheffield Doc Fest last weekend. The highlight was seeing We Are Together, am amazing film. Check out their website www.wearetogether.org
You can read about the film on the site.

If you click here you can listen to my fave song from the film, sung by am amazing 7 year old, who is now approaching 11, if you get my drift! I now have my heart set on going to South Africa to meet Mbali. Her song is number 2, Pigogo, you can only hear a sample but her spirit comes blasting out of the speakers! I love it! Going to buy the CD now.
Happy Day is also very cool, but even more fun when you see the kids singing it in the studio. Such amazing faces and voices! I want a copy of the film to watch over and over. Now thats the sign of a great film! Its also extremely sad. It is such an important film, and I hope it gets released widely in Australia.

Long time no blog
I have not blogged in a while, I have been very busy shooting and editing in London.
Have just finished 3 new music videos, take a look!
This is for Miou Miou shot Sep 1 in East Bohemia Czech Republic.
This is for Peggy Sue and the Pirates shot in London and Brighton , UK.
This is for Oklahomo Trio shot in Harajuku Japan.
I am currently focussing on ELEVEN finding interesting kids here in London to shoot. Next week I head to the South of France. In December I am going to Morocco to shoot at a blind school which I am looking forward to very much.
We have updated www.genbailey.com and there are links to lots of new production stills.

High Vibes
On Sunday I took Hari and Ani to High Vibes Festival in Northcote. They had a good time, although there was a lot of asking for cholocate, lollies. sausages, corn going on.. which is unusual for these two. We all were treated to the awesome sounds of TOUCH TYPIST who we love.
We bumped in to lots of new and old friends as you do at street festivals, Aindrias all the way from Ireland here for a Melbourne Fringe season of his show. Ani was stoked to find Hazel in the Touch Typist crowd, I stumbled across some high school and uni mates, and Pikelet who I met in London last month. She was there playing in a kids band The Purple Stripes! Hari got in to their song about the tooth fairy.
I saw Hazel and Nick play on Saturday night and they make me so happy. SO talented. Check them out

Back on the road again
This Saturday I leave Melbourne for Japan. I can't wait. Anyone who has ever heard me speak about Japan knows I am hooked. I should really be working for Tourism Japan the way I carry on with such convincing arguments about why it really is one of the MUST SEE places of this world. Not that I have been everywhere, but still. It is a treat to say the least.
Check out the video shot there Dec 2006 for the lovely EVA POPOV, the exceptional Melbourne singer songwriter
I have been editing the music video for infectious Czech Band MIOU MIOU shot in the picturesque East Bohemian countryside, September 1. It will be finished soon, premiering on Czech TV next week! Miou Miou were a delight to work/dance with!
Looking forward to getting back to SHOOTING PEOPLE!
