ONE-OFF OPPORTUNITY
Contribute to Lady Gaga’s The Monster Ball Tour
I have mentioned it before – the award-winning site SHOWstudio. One again they are at the forefront with an amazing opportunity – a one-off project not to be missed.
Nick Knight and his former assistant now fashion filmmaker Ruth Hogben have asked for video imagery submissions to feature alongside Lady Gaga’s magnificent and dramatic live performances on her Monster Ball Tour.
What are you waiting for!?
BRIEF
Create your own video to feature on Lady Gaga’s The Monster Ball Tour
In a unique step, pop sensation Lady Gaga, pioneering image-maker Nick Knight and fashion filmmaker Ruth Hogben launch a one-off collaborative project, inviting the singer’s fans to submit their own video imagery for inclusion in her 2009-2010 World Tour ‘The Monster Ball’. The inspiration is sharp, simple and brutal: the Apocalypse, symbolic of both destruction and rebirth. Lady Gaga, Nick Knight and Ruth Hobgen will select video imagery from the submissions, and the videos will then be spliced together and reinvented as exclusive imagery, played alongside Lady Gaga’s spectacular live performances across the globe. In line with new contributions, video pieces will be constantly re-edited and engineered as new submissions are received throughout the tour’s 44-date marathon run, in a constant creative renewal.

[FASHION] FILMS TO LOOK FORWARD TO
SO MANY FILMS. SO LITTLE TIME.
I love watching film during these dark and cold autumn and winter months – and this year (and beginning of the next) have three great fashion films on the agenda.
The best thing is when a film enlightens you with more than ‘just’ a well told story – a film that tickles your eye and indulge you with aesthetic beauty.
Out of the three films, the film I’m most eager to watch is Tom Ford’s A Single Man (with Colon Firth and Julianne Moore in the leading roles). If he appears to be as talented with film (he has acted as both screenplay writer and director) as with fashion, we can probably expect that the twenty-tens will film-wise me ruled by Mr. Ford the same way he ruled the fashion world in the nineteen-ninety’s.
All three films are to be released within the next couple of months (vary from country to country) – see trailers beneath.
