FOTO BOOF

is getting a make over and landing itself down at the Footscray Train Station early December! Keep your eyes peeled and your ears to the ground for the Footscray on the Edge: Public Art Festival. In the meantime, here's a montage of photo strips from the SEARious Jones "With A Little Help From My Friends" exhibition July 2011.

NEW FOTO BOOF

i was commissioned by the Just Another Agency girls to construct another fotoboof for Tobys' 30th birthday party. i chose a fairly simple design consisting of; 2x shelving units covered in MDF, joined by some wooden rods and curtains. Hardware included; mini mac, printer, firewire iSight camera (autoexposure + autofocusing from 50 mm to infinity!) and screen so peeps could check themselves before they wrecked themselves! sear added toby's face. the fotoboof was definitely a highlight of the party and many funny photos were captured. the birthday girl got to keep her mural, but we kept the boof for future hires. get at me for a quote already. totally customizable; from mural, to photo prints + layout, to actual voice prompt recording! holla.

peep the pics for proof..


construction -- paint it white


internal housing for the camera and screen


setup in thousand pound bend


ooh.. print slot. so wanna have this coming out the mouth next time!


you must always test the equipment!!


punters getting busy!


the proof is in the picture!

VJ JOSKE

i'm probably the laziest VJ in existence, but i still get heaps of props for my visuals, so i must be doing something right! recently i've been throwing some moving images on the walls of The Order Of Melbourne for The Dojo Saturday night gigs. these nights are run by a bunch of totally cool peeps (Wax Museum, Foot Clan + the infamous Fresh Petch,) and i'm super down to help crew that help themselves. nahmeen?!

Here's a couple of visual nuggets..


eye ganked from kubrick, layered over some old bgirl footage


saturated the eye colours. black and white high contrast footage underneath


looks good projected on the wall


cute little sprinkle sparkle logo in the corner.

dvds on loop all night long baby. tailored content to suit the club theme. werd to the nerd!

NEW YEAR. A FEW BEERS. MORE SEAR.

has it really been that long since i posted? geez. that's embarrassing. i'm sure i've done stuff since then. probably more graff + photography which i've neglected to upload/update.. should probably do that now..

so, i went to perth for the LADIES LOUNGE exhibition. actually made some 'art' for it and projected some offensive things onto the wall across the road. got to hang out with HKC crew and we painted an incredible abandoned power station courtesy Lady Bananas. click on the image or link below for the video recap. soundtrack provided by joske and dj smitten (as featured on the aussie girls mixtape)

 LADIES LOUNGE VIDEO RECAP

then off to Sydney for the LOTUS MEMORIAL JAM and whilst in town painted a tribute mural in Glebe. Big ups to MC THORN for her dedication and hard work.

RIP LOTUS / MUFINS.

also, you have to get down to prahran skatepark next saturday (4th feb) for the annual JUST ANOTHER FEMALE SKATEBOARD CONTEST. It's gonna be huge! $3000 in ca$h and truckloads of prizes. myself and Zbd will be hosting + toasting, so come say waddup. i threw together a little video promo for the event. monica shaw smashes the graphic design department, so i grabbed her bits and pieces and twisted them around some of my old skateboarding footage. click on the image or link below for a look!

and finally.. i was invited me down to the melbourne underground project to hustle beers and take photos. i whipped out the footage collector and threw this little piece together.

SEAR -- TOUCH UPS

SEAR painted the Sniders Lane wall with a bunch of crew from the Just Another Agency. Sista Bella thought her snake character was too aggressive, so then she threw some swallows over it.

First time out with the new 7d. Definitely gonna crack out the camera mount next time, so my apologies for the shaky footage. Check the video below.

SOOOO FRICKEN LAZY AND LATE.. MEGA UPDATES

apologies to anyone who ever follows this ridiculous blog, (statistics suggest there are indeed a few of you.. weirdos,) but i really have been lazy only in the updating department. i swear i've been doing stuff. here's the proof:

--> PHOTOBOOF <-- br="">SEARious Jones commissioned me to take care of the technology, whilst her ever so patient dad hooked up the wooden box. this project was super fun and i'm certain everyone who got the chance to use it will agree.
here you see my 'workhorse' squished into the box. i'd tell you the name of the program i'm using but only if you ask super nicely.

looks pretty on the outside..

photos don't look too bad either! complete with sneaky side marketing panel on the strip. we be hustling.

and we got to tag the inside, which makes for an excellent time lapse animation.. keep an eye out for that gif!

i pinched off a few fotos in between setting up so i could make a gif outta her. i don't think anyone understands how much i love retarded animated gif's.. seariously.


--> TUNNEL VISION <-- br="">i was invited to submit into a group exhibition co-ordinated by Caroline Ierodiaconou at the Platform Exhibition Space (Degraves Street subway.) I don't really make actual art, I'm more of an audio visual kinda girl, but I did manage to pull this multi-media collage outta my arse..

more flicks over HERE

--> HITACHI PROJECTION <-- br="">The Stopem and Marine exhibition at One Five Faction featured a crazy little projection. i took an image of the inside of a hitachi train and projected it onto a wall

added an original chair and handrails, then i filmed them tagging the wall, created a new projection from it and reprojected it back onto the same wall. pretty pleased with how it turned out if i must say so myself.

made this mini promo too.. very basic but you get the idea.

more photos from the opening night HERE

--> SDM vs NGV <-- br="">SDM crew commissioned this video piece for their National Gallery of Victoria stint. such an awesome crew of peeps. footage by Red, Beris, Gabe, Ra, and myself, edit by myself.



be sure to check out the SDM website. so many ill flix in there..

--> GET TRUCKED <-- br="">was invited to submit to another Get Trucked group exhibition. Basically an awesome way to raise funds for Camp Quality. I opened up the vintage corduroy section of my enormous vintage fabric collection and decided on a green paisley print

then i pulled the hat apart..

then i put it back together again!

can you believe someone actually bought it?! ugh. peep the other hats HERE


happy now? until next time..

JUST ANOTHER GRIPTAPE JOB

it's been a while since i gripped a board. this one was quite an exception. many a blunted blade and sanded finger. it's totally for sale ($123.45 in fact) but i'm not too phased if it doesn't sell, coz i really wanna ride it! -- SOLD --
