<i>If you are a creative person, you can probably relate to the following.That feeling you get when an idea pops up in your head and starts getting more vibrant everyday beofre you actullay realize it. You <b>need</b> to create. You need to keep the machine well-oiled. That is pretty much what happened for this shoot. Wedding season had ended, it was time to get back on the saddle and work on something slightly different. </i></div>

I have the chance to share the studio I am part of with a lovely makeup artist from <a href="http://red-makeup.com/" target="_blank">Red Makeup Studios</a>. I was even more lucky that Alex was on board the minute I mentioned my idea. Snow, Bride, crazy high fashion makeup and hair. Within a few weeks, we gathered the dress, the accessories, got a talented hairstylist and off we went to <a href="http://www.mississauga.ca/portal/discover/parksandgardens?paf_gear_id=9700018&itemId=200028">Mississauga.</a><br />

The snow card didn't go as well, we did have the -20 , but no snow. It actually turned out to be for the best, since we had these gorgeous cold tones I love anyway!<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
We will keep the snow shoot for another crazy adventure...</h2>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><i>Since last May, I am officially back into the excitement of Wedding Photography! I got myself into a great studio downtown Toronto and here I am, shooting weddings every weekend.</i></span></span></div>
<br />
Funnily enough, I've noticed that I keep saying the same things at every wedding. If you are in the industry, you are probably doing the same. If you are a guest, you can do some lip syncing the next time you bump into a wedding photographer. 10 points if you can say it faster than him/her!<br />
<h2>
The melting pot: "Get nice and close. Closer! Closeeeeer! That's it!" </h2>
In order to get this nice group picture where everybody seems to have a blast,<span style="color: #a64d79;"> you need them close. </span>Like real close. Get in here and lean forward people!<br />
<h2>
The seriously-get-closer : "You can put your feet underneath the dress."</h2>
I probably say this 362 times during couple and family pictures when I want the groom to be closer to his lovely bride. <span style="color: #a64d79;">It is a magic trick, from me to you. You're welcome. </span><br />
<h2>
The I-need-you-to-smile : "Now, act like you love each other!" following by its cousin "You can do better than that!"</h2>
This is my go-to to get a nice smile on people's faces. I heard that some
photographers tried the <i>"who farted?"</i> but I believe this is the next
level!<br />

<h2>
The I-want-natural-pictures: "Focus on each other, I am not here" </h2>
I want you to look at your groom or your bride and take a moment to enjoy how beautiful she/he is. <span style="color: #a64d79;">Hell, this is their day, they barely even had time to actually realize how good they look.</span> This is my favorite moment because if you look closely, you can even read in their eyes "wow, we made it."<br />
<h2>
The where-is-uncle-bob: "This is the moment I start yelling at people" </h2>
When you have 20 minutes to take 30 family pictures, you are in your "go-mode". <b>Family pictures are a must-have on your wedding day but it is also painfully annoying.</b>
Let's face it, guests would rather congratulate the new husband and
wife and enjoy the cocktail hour rather than standing for half an hour looking
for Uncle Bob to show up for the pictures. It is our role as
photographers to make it as quick as possible and when the family is
spread out, all you can do is call the missing person's name. Very
loudly. <br />
<h2>
The Compliment: "You guys look SO good"</h2>
Because it is true.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>At the end of the day, even if you spend hours repeating yourself, the good part is that every wedding is different. All that matters is that you make the bride and groom look like the best-looking people on Earth. Now, go find Uncle Bob, show must go on!</i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><i>Earlier this month I met Kyris, French musician rocking around the city of Toronto. If you can see him on stage performing, he is probably busy being the co-founder of <a href="http://francopenmic.com/" target="_blank">Franc'Open Mic</a> the first francophone open stage in Toronto for all performing arts. </i></span></span></div>
<br />
We had the chance to shoot in a very charming location which fit perfectly Kyris' musical atmosphere: the <a href="http://www.freetimescafe.com/" target="_blank">Free Time Cafe.</a> The place is full of beautiful corners, with wooden stairs and pictures all over the walls. <br />
<br />
This shoot was EPIC. After walking in the rain with my lights in a suitcase<i> (don't judge your car-less fellas)</i>, <span style="color: #a64d79;">we had one hour to shoot 3 outfits in 3 differents part of the bar/restaurant, juggling with accessories.</span> Needless to say I beat my own record for my lights wrap-up!<br />
<br />
After working on weddings for the past couple of months, it was nice to get back on the saddle for a studio photoshoot. Even if I am really enjoying weddings, there is a thrill in precisely controlling the lights and play around with filters.<br />
<br />
Thank you Kyris for your time and hope to see you soon for another adventure!<br />

a background in music and theatre, what attracted you to learn the circus arts?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">I
had been a <b>dancer for almost my entire life</b> and when<b> I had to stop due to
injuries, I found myself looking for another athletic outlet.</b> I was also a
theatre major at York University at the time, and worked at Cirque du Soleil in
the VIP tent and at Cirque Avaia in the box office as summer jobs. I really
enjoyed the circus showmanship, talent, and fun atmosphere and thought how
great it would be to actually do something like that. Starting back at school
for my final year of undergrad,<b> I saw a pamphlet for a circus school which I
decided to take as a sign, and enrolled in a class.</b> After my first class <b>I was
completely hooked and exhausted and knew that my life was going to go in an
entirely new direction!</b></span></div>

<h2>
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">You
specialize in aerial hoop and aerial silks; do you have a preference? Why?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">I
don’t really have a preference because I love both for different reasons. <b>I
love the silks because you can wrap them a thousand different ways</b>, and
literally manipulate them to do almost anything you want. <b>I love the hoop
because it can’t be manipulated and I have to find ways to move myself around
the apparatus. </b>With the silks you can do big drops, and with the hoop you can
spin as fast or as slow as you want. The silks are softer to the touch but do
require more strength, whereas I find the hoop easier when it comes to strength
but much more painful as it’s made out of steel. There are many pros and cons
to both but at least they are fun pros and cons!</span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">A
key skill an aerialist should have is a never ending work ethic. <b>You have to
constantly be working to maintain the strength and stamina you already have, as
well as the strength and stamina you want to have in the future.</b> That means
even when it’s raining, even when the TTC breaks down and is sorry for the
inconvenience, even when there’s 4 feet of snow outside you have to get up and
go train. When you’re sore, tired, feeling lazy, or would much rather order a
pizza and eat it all to yourself in one sitting, <b>you have to get yourself up
and train.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">To
be honest, I don’t really have a typical day but do have a show day routine. I
like to arrive on site at least an hour and a half or two hours before I’m
scheduled to go on. <b>My first priority is to get rigged up and make sure I know
how I’m entering and exiting the venue. </b>Next, I find doing make-up very
intimidating and time consuming so I like to get that started as early as
possible. Next, I like to do a good thorough stretch, put on my costume, and
then <b>go back and forth between dancing around the dressing room to high energy
music and going over the choreography in my head while listening to the routine
track. </b>As I’m walking over to the apparatus and about to start my piece I
always forget the choreography until the music starts, and then my muscle
memory takes over and everything is fine.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">Good
question! Last year I had to the honour to join the <a href="http://caravanstage.org/" target="_blank">Caravan Stage Company</a> for
the last six weeks of their New York tour as a replacement aerialist.
Essentially, every week I learned a new routine and was added to the show. <b>I
think my most challenging performance came during my fifth week on tour when I had
just learned the final routine and was going to perform all of them for the
very first time.</b> I was so nervous and excited to finally do them all, and kind
of scared that I may not be able to make my way through the entire show because
it was so physically demanding. On the bright side I did make it through, and
it was hands down one of the proudest moments of my life. </span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">When
performing, my favourite moment is hands down <b>the gasping sounds the audience
makes when I do the first drop of the routine!</b> I absolutely love doing drops
too, so I tend to try and fit in as many drops into a number as I can. To me
there is nothing better than hearing the gasping of the audience at the
beginning of a drop, followed by the laughter and applause from the audience at
the safe ending of a drop. That’s how I know they’re really with me, that
they’re enjoying the show, and living in the performance as much as I am. </span></div>

tricky! My favourite things to do on the silks are drops and <b>if I had to pick a
favourite, it would probably be what I call an egg drop.</b> To do an egg drop you
would have one leg hooked on the silks and the other leg has the silks wrapped
around it so it kind of looks like a candy cane. From there I would pull myself
up and over the hooked knee so I’m resting sideways on one hip and folded over
like I’m trying to touch my toes. From there I fling myself backwards and
basically end up sideways in a position similar to how I started. <b>This sounds
simple, but it scares people because it’s quick and you change directions while
dropping.</b> It’s soo much fun! </span><br />

yoga, running, and rock climbing. I also work in special events ranging in
everything from weekend festivals to big one off events such as <a href="http://www.scotiabanknuitblanche.ca/" target="_blank">Nuit Blanche</a>.

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3";">My
best piece of advice to beginners in silks would be to never say “I can’t”. <b>I
actually have a rule in my classes where every time you say “I can’t” you stop
what you’re doing and give me ten push-ups from your toes.</b> Each and every time.
Just try! You can say “I presently struggle with”, “this is hard”, “I need a
second this is scary”, but never say “I can’t”.<b> If you tell yourself you can’t
do something you’ve already mentally given up, and your body is not going to go
out of it’s way to prove you wrong.</b> Even if it’s not graceful, even if your
arms shake the entire time, and even if your attempt didn’t look exactly the
same as your teacher’s demo at least you tried! Show up, try your very best,

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">You might be graduating soon. Or maybe you want a career change. Or you are just curious and decided to give this article a read. No matter where you come from, you did well because today we are gonna talk about the path you need to follow to become a successful photographer. Ready?</span></span></i></div>
<br />
Well you shouldn't be, because there isn't ONE perfect artistic path paved with dollar bills. However, there are a few decision you are free to make to get you there, one being <b>Education.</b><br />
<br />
There are two kinds of people on this planet: <b>academics and the too cool for school.</b> Neither is better than the other, it is a decision that depends on everyone's personality. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;">Getting training before throwing yourself in any career is always a good idea.</span> It is definitely a safety net for uncertainty. School can prevent screw ups as you will be trained and hopefully, will be taught a minimum whatever you are doing. <br />
But we also know that the best way to develop and master a skill is to <b>practice, practice and -oh- practice.</b> Learning right on the field will definitely take you there.<br />
<br />
My background is a little funny, <b>as I am an academic who chose to follow the too cool for school path. </b>I did great in school, and I loved it. But after my high school, I decided that <span style="color: #a64d79;">I did not want to spend 5 more years to master theory.</span> I wanted to go out there and learn on the go. My shaky legs and I followed a<i> not so prestigious</i> 2-year photography training in Paris in which I was going to school 1 week per month. The remaining 3 weeks, I was working in a company I had previously found, while being paid a certain amount of the normal wage.<b> It is kind of a golden ticket: on one hand you learn the technical aspects of photography and on the other hand you get to see what it is like in the real world. </b><br />
<br />
There is always this strange feeling floating in the air, like if you don't enroll at school, you will not get anywhere. This feeling is usually followed by its ugly cousin: <span style="color: #a64d79;">if you are not going to school, you're pretty much dumb my friend.</span> Like my brother-in-law and entrepreneur said: <a href="http://www.layer-cake.com/" target="_blank">you don't learn how to ride a bike with a book.</a> So, if schools are not your thing, you shall not worry: <b>there are plenty of other ways to learn otherwise. </b>However, you will have to be determined and go fish for information by yourself: online training, practicing on own time, free resources, find an internship (and serve coffee).... <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Remember: whatever you choose to do, you are doing it for yourself only. Follow your guts and give everything you have. And don't even think about becoming a <a href="http://youarenotaphotographer.com/" target="_blank">fauxtographer!</a></i></div>

<span lang="EN-US">
Hello, I’m Beaver Galore and I’m a burlesque performer, Cancan dancer, GoGo
dancer and cat lover living in Toronto. </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">How did you come up with your stage name? Could
you describe your character?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
It’s obvious - <b>I’m Pussy Galore’s younger Canadian cousin!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>Seriously though, I’m inspired by the classic
style of old school 60's burlesque, James Bond is fun so Beaver Galore just
seemed to make sense.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I absolutely love old
school burlesque.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There’s something
about the feel and style of the 60’s I can’t get enough of and try to convey in
every performance I do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">You started performing as a burlesque
dancer in 2013, what is your background before then?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
I have been dancing all of my life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>I am a
professional dancer who was classically trained and was a full-time teacher and
choreographer for over 15 years.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have
done ballet, jazz, contemporary, modern, acrobatics, musical theatre, you name
it. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">How did you end up performing as a
burlesque dancer? Who is your inspiration?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
I was looking for something new and fun and it all sort of fell into my lap.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>I started by being obsessed with watching all
of these incredible videos of burlesque superstars of today and then the legends.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My own investigative sleuthing led me to taking
classes, going to shows and then performing in the big T.O burlesque community.
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><b>The icons are my muses</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These are ladies that lived the life and
stripped with style.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WA5rv7jNL44" target="_blank">Tempest Storm </a>and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmhXdqajVaQ" target="_blank">CandyBarr</a> (and so many others) are just a couple of classic superstars I look to for
constant flashes of inspiration. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Contemporary
burlesque stars that I love are <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdM6qkHVB68" target="_blank">Michelle L’amour</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq92F4WfraY" target="_blank">Perle Noire</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PJaSbh4otI" target="_blank">Ray Gunn</a>
(can’t forget the boys!) </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">A lot of people are not aware of what
burlesque is. How would you describe it? </span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Burlesque means a lot of different things to different people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Traditionally it comes from comedy and parody
and this still relevant and important in performances today.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span>Classic burlesque has the traditional parade
and peels, teases and glamour.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Neo-burlesque can have the same elements but it can also give social
commentary with performance art through movement, makeup, costumes and
creativity. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">How do you build a show? </span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Usually my inspiration usually comes from the music first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Burlesque shows can either be theme based or
not</b>, so sometimes my pieces can also be determined by what the show requires
(eg – a valentine’s show, superheros, etc…)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But I love creating a piece when a random song leads to a spark of an
idea, that cool eureka moment.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">What is your favorite part when you are
performing?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Those 4-5 minutes on stage are my favorite part of performing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> <b> </b></span><b>The anticipation, getting on stage, the heat
of the spotlight, hearing the music I have been rehearsing to again and again
(but still love) then just letting go.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The best part is connecting with an audience that’s there to see you
perform.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It goes by so fast, it’s
incredible, but at the same time you are so aware of everything that is going on
- <b>all 5 of your senses are turned way up</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You can see a tiny rhinestone on the floor while you are peeling your
glove while you’re bombarded with whoops and hollers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All the while your heart’s racing…it’s quite
the rush. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">You are also mastering the art of French Cancan
with the <a href="http://www.knickerkickers.com/" target="_blank">Knickers Kickers</a>, what attracted you to this discipline? </span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Cancan has a huge, rich history, too much for me to even scratch the surface of.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All I can say is that I share the stage with
a great troupe, it’s tons of fun, and scandalous, baby!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Just like burlesque…<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">What is your best experience on stage so
far?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Each performance is its own experiment and they’re all special in their own
way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don’t want to single just one
out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But in general, <b>I love the
backstage craziness, the diverse and eclecticism of the casts you perform with,
the cool audience,</b> they all make each experience unique and exciting.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">You are part of <a href="http://nakedgirlsreading.com/toronto/" target="_blank">Naked Girls Reading</a>, could
you tell us more about it?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Yes!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><a href="http://nakedgirlsreading.com/toronto/" target="_blank">Naked Girls Reading</a> started in
Chicago by Michelle L’amour and Franky Vivid and it has become an international
success. It’s an amazing live event where, well, naked girls read.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For me <b>it is one of the most fulfilling shows
I perform in.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I always shake my head on
performance day and ask how the hell I got myself into a stage performance
where <b>I am totally nude for 2 hours but I love doing it every time.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Happens every 2 months and it’s produced by
the illustrious <a href="http://www.aprofessionaldistraction.com/" target="_blank">Red Herring</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s really
quite cool.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">What is the project you are the most proud
of?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Personally, my favorite project is my very first burlesque piece called <b>“The
Frug”</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s based on a dance set-piece
in Bob Fosse’s 1966 film <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0--eFfzDAM" target="_blank">Sweet Charity</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The music is legendary and the choreography is genius.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fosse is my master and his distinctive style
of dance and movement make me fall in love with dance all over again every time
I see it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So with “The Frug” I wanted to
pay homage to him and Sweet Charity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>What is
great is it has become a piece I have become known for and I hope to make it bigger
and better every time I perform it.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span></span></div>

<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">To the next hips shaking/stocking peeling
wanna-be, what advice would you give?</span></h2>
<span lang="EN-US">
Take classes, rehearse, go to the shows, be inspired by the art all around us,
no matter what form it takes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Burlesque
is about teases and peels but it really comes down to what you want to say to
the audience.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span>Once you figure out what
you want to say, find out how you want to say it and articulate in the truest
way that honours your creative you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Oh
yeah, practice, practice, practice.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b></span></div>

<b><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-CA">• Who are you and what do you do?</span></span></b></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I’m Elysia White and I’m a Toronto-based
actor. I haven’t had time for a joe job lately and somehow have managed to
sustain my life on acting work and odd jobs—who knew that was possible?!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• In the web series <a href="http://haphead.com/" target="_blank">Haphead</a>, you are
playing Maxine, an empowered young woman. What attracted you to the role?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">It’d be a significantly shorter list if you
wanted to know what I don’t like about the role. Actually, it wouldn’t be a
list because there’s nothing about Maxine that I dislike. I have a lot in
common with her, it was an “easy” role to slip into. I love that she doesn’t
care about the stuff that teenage girls are told to obsess over—make up, boys,
gossip etc. <b>She is a no-nonsense go-getter who spends her days working towards
becoming the best version of herself. </b>She’s clever, tough as nails, stubborn as
hell, and still human. She still loves and hurts but it’s that true “I’ve got
your back” love that runs in her veins for her father and friends.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• How important are strong female leading
roles in our media today?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">They are everything!!! Aaaahhhh!! But
really, I can’t stress enough how deeply and truly I believe that <b>strong female
leads are needed so desperately</b>. Hollywood is catching on, they exist, but
they’re still few and far between. I grew up thinking that stories about women
were boring and <b>I blamed my own gender, no word of a lie</b>. I wanted to be
Indiana Jones, not Topanga, you know? Sure, there were a bunch of strong female
counterparts or team players, but they always had a stronger man around and
always fell victim to a love story. Nothing against love stories but all <b>I
wanted to see was the badass lone wolf getting things done</b> and no female lead
ever did that for me (well, I mean, eventually I saw Captain Janeway and Lara
Croft but it was later). I was a “tomboy” as a result and looking back on it
really I just needed to see the right leading lady. <b>And now I feel I need to BE
that leading lady so the next generation doesn’t make the same mistake I did.</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• Haphead has a variety of action
sequences, what physical skills did you need to learn? What are other
techniques you either have learnt already and/or would like to in the future?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I needed to expand on my basic stage combat
training with some <b>Muai Thai and other martial arts moves. </b>I stayed active as
much as possible before shooting and I was able to pick up a lot of the moves
quickly. I had a brief session with <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2041604/" target="_blank">Adrian Ellis</a> (Geiss) before shooting the
fight scene with him then we just dove right it. Same thing with Ben Devries, a
quick session then a crapload of learning on the fly. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I’m always looking to expand my fight
knowledge! <b>I taught myself how to use a crossbow, throwing stars/knives, I can
fence, use butterfly knives efficiently, little things.</b> As a result I now own a
very ladylike amount of weapons. I’m going to be taught how to ride a
motorcycle for the upcoming feature film <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3894094/" target="_blank">Red Spring</a> (which I’m the female lead
in) so that’s going to be awesome!</span></div>

<span lang="EN-CA">• What is a typical day on set like?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I don’t think any day is typical really and
it always depends on the project at hand. It’s a lot of early mornings and late
nights. <b>It’s a big hurry up and wait game.</b> Some days you sit at a kitchen table
all day with mentally exhausting dialogue and other days you show up on set at
6pm, kick a few asses and head home at 7am. <b>You have to be ready to go at any
given moment</b>. When they’re setting up the shot, you better damn well be
prepping and staying alert and focused so when you get in front of that camera
you are ON. Also, it’s hard not to binge eat Doritos from the craft table—I
don’t want to talk about it.</span></div>

<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• You are currently working on a new
independent horror feature called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/redspringfilm" target="_blank">Red Spring</a>, what is the film about and what
kind of role do you play? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Basically it’s a <b>post-apocalyptic
war/survival story.</b> Vampires have essentially taken over the world—and we’re
not talking sparkly moody vampires that date humans, they’re more comparable to
drug addicts who have such a hunger for human flesh they’ll go to any lengths
to get it. <b>Vampires, though victims of their hunger, are smart unlike zombies;</b>
they can use war tactics to attain their goals. I play one of the<b> pocket
survivors, Vicky.</b> She’s a leather-clad, crossbow-wielding badass who rides into
the lives of some other survivors on her motorcycle. She’s extremely
intelligent, knows a LOT about the current situation—the kind of girl that
watches the news with a critical eye, you know? Doesn’t believe everything she
hears and forms her own opinions, which she will make sure you know. She can
gravitate towards sarcasm as a defence mechanism, she has some emotional walls
up for sure. <b>Everyone is the only surviving member of ANYONE they ever knew,
it’s hard on a human’s sanity to deal with that and come together with these
people they wouldn’t otherwise hang out with.</b> It’s a really beautiful web of
surviving the war and surviving each other. We just completed our Indiegogo
campaign! </span><span class="_5yl5" data-reactid=".20.$mid=11432305312587=2e353fd3b3b614ab862.2:0.0.0.0.0"><span data-reactid=".20.$mid=11432305312587=2e353fd3b3b614ab862.2:0.0.0.0.0.0">We asked for $6,000 to cover a lot of the basics but managed to surpass stretch goal territory with over $11,000 so we can now afford better make-up, contact lenses for the vampires to save time on editing them in post, a bunch of seemingly little things that in the end will make a big difference. It’s going to be awesome.</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-CA">• What does it take to be successful in the
film industry in Toronto?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><b>You need to understand that success and
making money aren’t synonymous</b>. It’s weird. People are talking to me like I’m a
hot shot sometimes and I’m like… huh? Me? I have fans? When I graduated from
Ryerson Theatre School, I got an agent straight away and I waited by the phone
for a year. <b>No one wants you fresh out of school, it’s a fact</b>. I took matters
into my own hands, still going to the car commercial and “Pretty Girl #2”
auditions my agent was sending me on, and started to realize I need to hustle<b>.
I sucked it up and went to networking events, I reached out to people in the
industry, I said yes to EVERYTHING that came my way and I pushed myself out of
my comfort zone.</b> Now I can say no to stuff I don’t see a backbone in, and
that’s a really cool feeling. I think if you’re successful, you’ll never really
know it, because you should be too busy hustling to get the next thing. <b>And
don’t join the union right away. Just don’t.</b> You get one permit for some
commercial and think yay! Now I can join the union and be a working actor!
False. I’ve seen talented actors join the union too early after one or two paid
gigs and then nothing happens. You can only do union work, you’re not
experienced to get union work, and you’re sitting twiddling your thumbs looking
up through the glass ceiling you installed yourself. I’m going to be forced to
join in about a month but I pushed it as long as I could and now my resume is
glorious. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><b>Angelina Jolie is my spirit animal.</b> She’s
so incredibly talented but talent is something you’re born with, it’s not
impressive to just have talent. She’s a hustler. She’s crazy. She’s passionate.
She’s sensual. She’s driven. She’s everything I aspire to be. In grade twelve I
was in a Regional Arts Drama program and we had to choose someone, an actor,
who we thought changed the world or had broken down barriers, research them to
then become them for a half hour interview. I chose Angelina, I drew on her
tattoos, I went all out. The more I learned about her, the more I respected her
and that’s how I want to be.</span><span lang="EN-CA"> </span>

Trinity Bellwoods is my backyard, I have unlimited food options, the Ossington
strip is right there. It’s great. I’m only here for another month though,
sadly, as I’ll be living in Kincardine for a month to shoot Red Spring then
heading down to live in New York City. I’m getting’ hitched! Once upon a time I
had a short film (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2914394/" target="_blank">Just Ella</a> by the creator of Haphead Jim Munroe) in the
Toronto After Dark Festival. It played before a zombie movie called The Battery
and <b>I thought one of the leads was SUPER cute so I hunted him down at the after

<h2>
<span lang="EN-US">• You have been playing since the age 11. What
inspired you to create and perform music? Have those inspirations stuck until
now?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">There was definitely a combination of
influences that ultimately mixed together and fueled that desire to be a
musician. To pick out a couple, <b>I’d have to say the Beatles as a kid were huge</b>.
I heard a lot of Beatles growing up & remember being intrigued by certain
melodies, fascinated by everything they did. Then when I was 11 a guy on my
school bus played me Fire by Jimi Hendrix. <b>My dad had two old guitars in our
living room and I naturally wanted to be Jimi Hendrix. </b>Then I saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers live & that was it. <b>I wanted that job</b>. To this day, they

<h2>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">D’Angelo. Oh man. I saw him in Europe a few
weeks ago and it was insane. <b>James Brown, Marvin Gaye and Hendrix had a

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Oh yes... <b>Way less fights in Toronto</b>... But
it’s a lot more reserved in Toronto. Dublin has volatile electricity in the air
as is, so playing a small club there is fun because you don’t know what could
happen, people get loose. In Toronto, people watch the bands attentively &
are far more cautious about letting loose. Both situations can be great to play

<span style="font-size: large;"><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I love <a href="http://juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2015/04/talent-around-block-kaela.html">dancers.</a> They fascinate me. I love how natural and easy they make complicated moves look. I am really happy to share my latest photoshoot with the beautiful Téa.</span></i></span></div>
<br />
When I met Téa 2 years ago <i>- she was actually the model for my first shoot in Canada ever -</i> she told me she had been dancing for many years (13!) . I did not forget. It took me two years to actually work on my urban ballet photoshoot (late is better than never sometimes) and we scheduled it to celebrate the beautiful days coming to Toronto. <a href="http://www.alekartistry.com/" target="_blank">Armelle</a> used her talent to create 3 strong looks and we went around the city to enjoy Téa's gracefulness.<br />

<br />
This is where I took advantage to create a 2-for-1 post, because obviously, <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/will-smith-jared-leto-to-suit-up-for-suicide-squad-movie-in-toronto-1.2859333" target="_blank">we are not Will Smith and we couldn't shut down Yonge and Dundas for this shoot.</a> <span style="color: #a64d79;">Shooting in public is tricky. As a photographer, you need to pay attention to every single details as much as you can, and shooting outdoors with people wandering around makes it harder.</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="color: black;">You will have to work way more in post production than usual. </span></span></span></h2>

We went to the bridge on the lakeshore west as our first location, and with this beautiful weather, it was PACKED. I spent so much time retouching this picture:</span></span><br />

happening overseas, and viceversa.</span><b><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> </span></b></span>I have been asked about fashion abroad so many times that I created a way </span></span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">b</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">e informed with just a click on whatstrendy.net!</span></span></span></span></span></span><b><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> Speaking of which, if you are a new artist based in Toronto like

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">• What process do you follow to create a post on <a href="http://whatstrendy.net/">whatstrendy.net</a> ?</span></span></span></span></span></h2>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">I usually write ideal topics in my notebook in order to organize them, giving priority to festivals or events which have more
urge to be posted on a certain calendar date.</span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">Also, I find my ideas by <b>asking myself questions</b>. For example, after the fashion week I thought "ok I wrote about my impressions but plenty of bloggers have done the same thing for sure, what am I missing?". I had a lot of exclusive pictures so I decided to make a selection to offer something different, a funny way to summarize the shows and look behind the scenes.... And I came up with <a href="http://whatstrendy.net/the-fashion-weeks-alphabet/" target="_blank">the fashion week's alphabet. </a></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<h2>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• It is quite a machine you have here! How do you find this constant inspiration?</span></span></h2>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">I
try to avoid looking at others blogs honestly because I could get
influenced and my posts would not be as original as I wish. I also read
fashion magazines to discover new trends, I listen to Canadian radio so I
know whats happening in the city or in Canada in general. I follow some
fashion icons </span></span></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">Instagram</span></span></span> like Sienna Miller or travel guides like New York or European countries. <b>I call my sister Francesca in Rome</b> and she gets me inspired with the latest trends from the Italian capital! </span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #343434;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #161616;">In my opinion, people don't have time to read nowadays and we just have a look just at headlines because we are always in a hurry. So I think <b>pictures and slogans play a very important role in order to make a blog fast readable and unique</b>. That's why I spend a lot of time creating my own layouts, I like to tell stories through them! <b>People want to see the newest trends, not only from magazines but also from a genuine point of view, like us, bloggers. </b>What can make it popular is what topics you can offer: original trends, like in my case from another continent, low budget looks to copy... Last but not least it should be different from the others. </span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-CA">• How has NoSleep
evolved since its start in 2011?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">When we started it was very barebones in
terms of production quality.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have a
background as a musician so I had some experience with audio production but the
show was very much a “learn as you go” experience.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>T<b>he early shows were around 30 minutes long</b>
featuring solo narrators on a couple of stories with a public domain musical
soundtrack.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Today our shows run over 2
hours and feature 5-7 stories with multiple voice actors</b>, original musical
scores composed for each story, and full sound design/effects to give the
stories a full audio drama atmosphere.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• What are your influences and how do you
think it affects the podcast?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">My biggest influence in terms of producing
the show is the old time radio horror shows I used to listen to when I was
young.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Back in the 70s, Toronto’s Q-107
radio played scary stories on Sunday nights from 10-11pm.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would lie in bed and listen and love every
minute of it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my show to be
something similar to those; a chance to <b>close your eyes and fall into the
immersion of the scary stories and let them transport you to somewhere creepy
yet safe.</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• What are the criteria you use to pick a
story of Reddit? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Most of our stories are written in the
first-person, meaning the writer (or narrator) is conveying events which
happened to them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They are largely
fictional but told with the understanding that they are plausible as long as
you can suspend your disbelief.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I<b> look for stories in which you can connect
with the people in the story and care about them.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If the person is trapped in a haunted house
or being stalked by a psycho I want to care about what happens to them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I look for stories which are, of course,
genuinely scary but that can be very subjective.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><b>Another strong feature of a good story for
the show is solid audio cues</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A story
can adapt well to audio if it features lots of sound ideas, like footsteps in
the attic, screams from outside, whispers from unseen people, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Being able to match the atmosphere of the
story with audio creates a very effective production.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• What story performed on the show haunts
you the most?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">It’s not often I get spooked by the stories
I produce.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’m too “inside” the story to
get genuinely caught off guard by them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There are, however, some stories which resonate with me emotionally in a
haunting way.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">From our third episode was the story <a href="http://www.thenosleeppodcast.com/?p=37" target="_blank">“TheThing in the Fields”.</a><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was the first
time I sort of acted the narration rather than just reading it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It allowed me to understand how I could do
more than just be a reader; I could convey the stories more powerfully by
performing them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>By becoming the
character I am able to immerse myself in the story more fully and experience it
more deeply.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">The story, <a href="http://www.thenosleeppodcast.com/?p=248" target="_blank">“The Showers” </a>from our 2012 Halloween
show was one which worked well on so many levels.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It really stuck with me because I connected
with the person(s) I was portraying.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s such an excellent and terrifying tale.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It remains a fan favourite to this day.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• We can imagine that producing a podcast involves a lot of work. Who are you working with? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">The show has become a <b>collaboration with
many people from all over the world</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
work with writers, voice actors, musicians, and producers who are from the US,
Canada, Europe, and Asia.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">The process involves choosing the stories –
either by me picking them or the narrators choosing the stories they want to
read.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I contact the authors for their
permission and then the story is recorded and sent to me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I edit the audio files and either I or my
musical collaborator <a href="http://www.wondroussound.com/">Brandon Boone</a> write the musical score.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I add the sound design and wrap all the
stories together for an episode.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><b>Our show is an example of the power of the
Internet for collaborative creative output.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The fact that I have never met any of my collaborators face-to-face yet
I count many of them as close friends speaks volumes about the ways in which
creative expression will evolve as time goes on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’m alone in my modest little studio yet
produce a show which is a product without creative or geographical borders.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• Even if you are not looking for any
narrators at the moment, due to a big amount of volunteers, for future
reference, what would it take to<a href="http://www.thenosleeppodcast.com/?page_id=8" target="_blank"> become a narrator on a podcast</a>? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">One of my biggest regrets with the progress
of the show is that it has grown beyond the grassroots show it started as.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was a show in which people could cut their
teeth in becoming narrators or voice actors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Today I simply don’t have the time to help people develop their
narrating skills.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>I am looking for
people who have voice acting experience and who can produce high quality audio
files for me without a lot of editing and corrections.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">I think our show will always be a form of
audio community theatre where hobbyists and not-quite-professional voice
actors/writers/musicians can share their talent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But as the show has grown so too has the need
for the talent to grow along with it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
will never be the slickest Hollywood-style production but we will always strive
to make our shows as high quality as we possibly can.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• Do you manage to live off this project? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">As of August 2014, I am producing the show
as my full-time career and passion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>That’s thanks solely to the members who pay for our <a href="http://www.thenosleeppodcast.com/?page_id=1885" target="_blank">“Season Pass”</a>
program</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Members get the full-length 2+
hour episodes instead of the 45-60 minute free versions of the show.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Their generosity funds all of the show’s
expenses and allows me to just barely pay my bills.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was quite a pay cut to go from being a
full-time software developer to full-time audio producer but so far things are
working out and we are seeing some decent growth in the show’s audience lately.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• How has your listenership grown from the
early days of the show?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">At the very start of the show we were only
known by the people who frequented Reddit’s NoSleep subreddit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From there – largely through word-of-mouth
advertising alone – we have seen the show grow slowly but steadily.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Listeners share the show with their friends
and family and it takes off from there.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b></span>Thanks
to some recent opportunities for interviews on other podcasts and some high
rankings in the iTunes charts <b>our audience is almost five times larger today
than when I went to the premium Season Pass model back in May 2013.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• What is the ultimate goal you are hoping to
achieve with NoSleep? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">My ultimate goal is to become <b>one of the
first audio fiction Internet-based shows which pays all its contributors a
decent wage for what they do</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
currently pay each contributor a small stipend for their work but it is much
less than they deserve.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I feel strongly
about being able to pay people for their talent rather than just relying on
volunteer work from everyone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That will
happen when audiences understand the need to pay a bit for what they are
getting.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">It bothers me that<b> some people are still
unable to understand the need to pay for good quality entertainment in order to
have talented people provide that quality.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Internet-based shows like mine offer a lot of quality for such little
money; in my case the equivalent of less than 40 cents per hour of content.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">As more and more people come onboard we
will continue to put that money back into the show and its contributors, and
hopefully continue to increase its quality and entertainment value for years to
come. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• What work in other than your artistic
field impresses you?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">While my artistic field technically
includes voice acting there is a field in which I would love to have the time
to be a part of: <b>audiobook narration.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
takes a great deal of talent to be an effective audiobook narrator; talent
similar yet removed from stage acting or audio drama acting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To that end, the person I most admire in that
field is the voice actor <a href="http://scottbrick.net/" target="_blank">Scott Brick</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
is a top-tier audiobook narrator whose style and talent is what I aspire to.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• Where can we find you? </span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-CA">Being an online presence I’m not really
tied to one geographical location.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am
proud to have been born and raised in Toronto and still consider it my
touchstone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I currently live about an
hour north of the city but remain connected to it through my family members who
still live there</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<h2>
<span lang="EN-CA">• If Toronto was a person, what kind would
it be?</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Toronto would be the kind of person who
inside is insecure and in constant search of validation while putting on a bold
and brash face to hide that fact.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b>Toronto screams, “Look at me!” while not wanting people to get too close
or look under the bed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There be monsters
under there</b>.</span></div>

<i>Last January, I started working on a new fashion series (a I-can't-tell-you-anything-about-yet type of series). It is going to involve a lot of time and work (but it is worth it, I swear it is a good idea) but I think that karma decided to make it even harder, because you know, it wouldn't be that fun otherwise...</i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></span></span><span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></span></span></span></div>
<h2>
<span style="color: #a64d79;">When you are a photographer not represented by an agent, you need to have good organization skills. Because 99% of the time, you will be the key to set up photoshoots.</span></h2>
Mid-February, I had it all not without struggle. A model from agency, a designer, a makeup artist, time and place.<br />
The day comes, early Sunday morning, <i>set-ups are ready, makeup artist is here, everybody else is on their way coming from all around the city.</i> An hour goes by. And then 2. The model is not here, nobody called me, and I don't have the emergency number of the agency.<b> For the first time ever, the model did not show up. </b><br />

I found 2 other models, another date, and I even met a jewelry designer to join the fun! <br />
The day before the photoshoot, while I was having a lovely coffee <a href="http://delysees.com/" target="_blank">here</a> with the lovely jewelry designer <a href="http://lolasvanity.com/" target="_blank">Khariz</a>, I got a call from the agency, <b>one of the girl backed out</b>. Nobody else has the same measurements for the second dress. And I am not kidding. Once again, I was able to count on my team: the first model agreed to stay all day instead of just the morning and Nkem, the fashion designer from <a href="http://the-dress-shop.weebly.com/" target="_blank">The Dress Shop</a>, did her best to change the dresses to make sure the first model could fit in both.<br />
<br />
I can't show you the conceptual pictures I took but I am glad to show you the beauty shots we did with Abbie, beautiful model from Sutherland Academy.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">My name is Kaela Ryan and I am a freelance dancer in Toronto. </span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• As a freelance dancer, how would you describe your everyday life? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am always taking class and cross training. I have ballet 3-5 times a week and I take hip-hop, Latin, and ballroom. I run, I do yoga and pilates and I recently started rock climbing as a hobby. <b>It is very physically and mentally challenging so it is a perfect way to de-stress and stay in shape.</b><br />I am currently in the beginning stages of taking some of my choreographic works and <b>creating a video collection.</b> Some pieces are years old and some are as recent as last week. They are all different styles and have different directions so right now it is a bit scattered, but that’s what makes it fun.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is your favorite kind of dancing and why?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It is very hard to choose a favourite kind of dance. I would say I like watching them all because <b>any style done well exhibits an artistry and athleticism that can be appreciated from every perspective.</b> When dancing, the genre I am working with in the moment can be powerful enough to move me to feel like I belong right there. However, I can go to a rehearsal for something completely different and feel the exact same way. Anything that can make me feel something is worth watching and doing.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is your favorite moment when you are performing?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The split second right before <b>you take a breath to do the very first move</b>. You have less than one second to take it all in and let it all go. It goes by so quickly but lasts forever.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is the biggest challenge you had to overcome in your career?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">About a year and a half ago, <b>I tore my hamstrings on tour.</b> It started out quite small, but as I continued to work it got worse and worse. I didn’t realize how bad it was until I took about a week off, and in my break became practically immobile. It has taken countless hours of physio and rest. I was unable to do anything for a long time, including basic exercise. The biggest challenge has been trying to overcome the doubt and fear that was instilled in my time off. <b>It was so easy to get down on myself for being weaker than I used to be</b>. I didn’t recognize myself on the outside or the inside. I am finally able to start training like I used to, and the hardest part has been the mental aspect. But I stay positive and ignore any negative thoughts. Small progress is still progress and I am always reminding myself of that.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is your main career goal? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I don’t have one main goal. I love trying new things and working to refine my craft with different people or choreographers. My next move is the project I’m working on now. And after that, I’m sure I’ll find something that excites me more so. </span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• How did you end up becoming a professional dancer?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Dancing is my livelihood</b>. I have been doing it since I was 3 and nothing else has moved me in a similar way. I just could not imagine myself doing anything else at this time in my life. Dancing is the perfect emotional, intellectual, physical and sensual experience for me as a whole person.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is the project you are the most proud of? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I most recently <b>re-shot my demo reel</b>. I loved it because it was one of my first projects since recovering from my injury. I freestyled 3 different genres in one day. I purposely challenged myself to be authentically me and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. </span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Do you think Toronto is a good place to be in to have a fulfilling career in the dancing industry? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Toronto has a <b>very small dance scene</b>, which is good because<b> you can learn anything from lots of people and network quickly. </b>This also gives Toronto incredible potential to grow and I think it is growing nicely.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What advice would you give to beginner dancer?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I would tell any beginner dancer to throw themselves into learning. <b>Absorb as much as you can.</b> Learn from everyone (not just a select few). Look at all sides of everything. Ask questions when you are unsure and trust your instincts. Put in the effort, because you will get back what you put out. <b>Most importantly, don’t be arrogant, but KNOW YOUR WORTH</b>.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What work in another artistic field than yours impresses you? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I have a lot of respect for <b>painters and sketch artists</b>.
I am blown away by the styles, the amount of competition and the
display of creativity and emotion that goes into something as
(seemingly) straight forward as putting an object on a blank canvas.<br />I also love composers of any kind. That takes a lot of everything to do.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Where can we find you? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I can always be found at <b>Yonge and College</b>. It is the nucleus of my universe. Anything I do is about 20 minutes walking distance from there (home, dance, work, shopping etc.).</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• If Toronto was a person, what kind would it be?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I really had to think about this one! I think it would be a <b>young twenty something</b>…someone who is vibrant, excited and full of passion. Perhaps a little bit lost but very hopeful, curious and has incredible potential.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Last word for the road?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Everyone has his or her own opinion of how you should live and what would make you successful. <b>Just do whatever you want, plain and simple.</b> It’s the most commonly stated piece of advice, but so completely under-used. Stick to your guns, explore new things, change your mind or don’t at all. Just do whatever makes you happy.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Last week, I realised that I hadn't worked on a lookbook photoshoot for a while. Like just the thought of it made me cringe especially because I <a href="http://juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2015/01/the-importance-of-projects-2015.html" target="_blank">made an agreement with myself</a> to work on at least one fashion photoshoot per month. Even if my camera wasn't dusty thanks to <a href="http://juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/p/blog-page_3.html" target="_blank">Talent Around The Block</a>, it was time to make it see something else. </i></div>
<br />
I guess somebody heard me out there, because I met Athina the same week. Athina is a beautiful beauty blogger <i>(she is GREEK for crying out loud. Like goddess greek!</i>), author of the French blog <a href="http://keep-it-bloom.com/" target="_blank">Keep It Bloom</a> in which she reviews products and talk about girly stuff. I ended up calling her two days before actually meeting her for the first time, with a "<span style="color: #a64d79;">help, I need to shoot!</span>". Needless to say that we spent our first meeting at Jimmy's Coffee (remember, <a href="http://juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2015/02/astrid-talent-around-block.html" target="_blank">Astrid</a> mentioned it!) for 3 hours, planning outfits and makeups. Because yep, she also do her makeup perfectly. <b>Jackpot.</b><br />
<br />
Thanks to our lovely Canadian winter, I was in a desperate need to create something spring like and rock it with colours and flowers everywhere. It was a good way for me to work a little more on the design part than I usually do, even though I love it very much. We chose 3 looks and went to the beautiful <a href="http://www.torontoartscape.org/artscape-wychwood-barns" target="_blank">Wychboorn Barns</a> for the day. <i>(for the anecdote, we were pretty indecisive until half an hour before leaving for the shoot, as the weather did not look in our favor. It turned what pretty great, we had the whole place for us! Now I stop talking. )</i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">My name is Dee. I am a professional student, currently at <b>OCAD University</b> for Illustration and previously at McMaster for Theatre&Film and Philosophy. Aside from a student I would say <b>I am an idealist, and a creator</b>. What I really do is design worlds, make pictures, and tell stories. My work is often whimsical and detailed. I especially enjoy arranging live scenes of people and objects as reference for my paintings. </span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Why does this project matter to you?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> It feels like you belong to a community, when you meet other creative people. <b>It is inspiring to learn what others do, and how they do it, and you can take that into your own practice.</b> Even answering these questions forces you to see your own work from a new perspective.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This project opens windows for connection-making and potential collaboration. But most importantly, the more art you experience, (and even just the more experiences you have), the more “stuff” you have to draw on for your art.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What projects are you up to?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I have just created <b>a blog</b> for <a href="http://www.deesimagineering.weebly.com/" target="_blank">my website</a> to create a smorgasbord of inspiration through new techniques I learn, experiences I have, things I read, and will not all be directly related to art.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am currently learning and experimenting with Blender, an open-source 3D animation software. Once I am proficient enough, <b>I would like to create an animated short</b>. I took a challenging introductory course, which gave me the foundation I need to work on it on my own.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am also developing my ideas for a series of <b>body painting </b>photographs. I hope to collaborate with Juliette on this project.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Though I have not begun working on it yet, I would like to begin<b> model-making.</b> Working in miniature is cathartic in a way. It will also allow me to create worlds in a much more tangible way.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What is your main career goal? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ideally I would hope to work as a <b>concept artist for a film studio, animation studio, or video game company, designing props, sets, characters, environments, etc</b>. This would allow me to imagine and create, visually, the world or personality of a story or character and see it come to life. I also hope to collaborate with a writer on a children’s book or book cover to be published. It would be exciting to see my art in a bookstore, or in someone’s home.</span><br />
<br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What made you throw yourself in the artistic world?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As a child I was always interested in design and invention. I would design my own clothes, make up my own alphabets and secret codes. I even invented an entire world that involved levels of magic, secret agents, and numerous gadgets. I<b>n order to get these ideas out, I would draw them.</b> As time progressed I got better at drawing, and the drawing itself became enjoyable. I received a sketchbook for my 11th birthday, half full with images cut out from magazines that I copied. Though not a creative endeavor, it made me fall in love with drawing. <b>So out of a passion for design came a passion for art.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>I have also always had a great passion for film.</b> The complexity of a story, characters, imagery, sound, and music, all working together, really appealed to me because there are so many facets of art I enjoy and film encompasses them all.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A combination of all of it threw me into the art world, and continues to inform my art and what I hope to do as a career </span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What work in your artistic field impresses you?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The work of <a href="http://www.valeriofabbretti.com/">Valerio Fabretti</a> is magical and fun. His images are full, with warm lighting and are always very cozy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Karl Simon’s concept art for Les Miserables is beautiful and ambient. He has worked on a number of other well-known films. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.alexgrey.com/" target="_blank">Alex Grey</a>’s entrancing spiritual and meditative paintings are beautiful and overwhelming in their enormous size.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Graeme Base’s book, <a href="http://www.graemebase.com/" target="_blank">Animalia</a>, has such detailed, full images. You can stare at them constantly and continue to find something new.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">One particular piece of 3D animation that impresses me, and that I love to watch, is the character of Baymax from the film Big Hero 6. He is such a simplistic form, hardly any shape or colour, no feet, no nose, mouth, ears, hair, or pupils, and yet his body language clearly expresses emotion and personality in clever and funny ways.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What is the project you are the most proud of?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">One of my favourite pieces, conceptually, is my <b>Unique Expression of Love</b> piece featuring two lovers connected by a force of synapse-like glowing strands in place of their heads. It is meant to represent that particular way of communicating that only you and your partner understand.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">However, it requires a lot of tweaking. Because of this, I would like to replace it with a series based on the same vision.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.deesimagineering.weebly.com/gallery.html" target="_blank">Fortune Teller</a> is my other favourite. It is simply a fortune teller’s hands hovering over her crystal ball, surrounded by candles and other psychic paraphernalia. My mom was kind enough to model her hands for me. It is not conceptually rich, but I enjoy the lighting and atmosphere.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• Where can we find you? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">At OCAD of course. But I love <b>Ward’s Island</b>, particularly where all the residential houses are, a great place to do some sketches. (Ferry docks at Bay & Queen’s Quay)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.theroyal.to/">The Royal</a> is a small cozy theatre with a beautiful interior. The Zero Theorum was on particularly interesting and bizarre movie that I saw there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.snakesandlattes.com/">Snakes and Lattes</a> (Bloor & Bathurst) or<a href="http://www.snakesandlagers.com/"> Snakes and Lagers</a> (College & Bathurst) are both wonderful places. I’m a lover of board games. I hope to try them all and I hope to, some day, create my own.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• If Toronto was a person, what kind would it be?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A creative, busy person with lots of personality, <b>cultured, accepting, well dressed, enjoys loud music but also a glass of wine. </b>Someone loud, outspoken, tall and thin<i>.</i> The life of the party, but with a dark side.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• Last word for the road?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I just wanted to share one of my favourite parts from a movie I love. Finding Neverland is about JM Barrie, the playwright of Peter Pan.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><i>Peter Llewelyn Davies: This is absurd. It’s just a dog.<br />JM Barrie: Just a dog? Just?<br />JM Barrie [to Porthos]: Porthos, don’t listen!<br />JM Barrie [to Peter]: Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he’s just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That’s like saying, “He can’t climb that mountain, he’s just a man”, or “That’s not a diamond, its just a rock.” Just.</i></span><br />

• Who are you and what do you do?</h2>
My name is Steve Diguer (Pronounced Dee-gay). I’m a <b>song composer.</b> I write and direct for TV, mostly kids shows, mostly educational shorts. <br />
I recently hosted and directed my own pilot show, with support from <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Bell Local</a>. It’s called <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Toronto Song Project</a>. In it, I search the city for people of all kinds, all ages, who have a good singing voice, and an interesting story to tell. I interview them on camera about their story, try to get to their deepest emotions connected to that story, then I write them a song… their song. We work it out together, they sing it, and we record it, while I film the whole journey. <br />
<h2>
• Tell us a little more about Toronto Song Project</h2>
In
2013, I had just moved back to Toronto from Los Angeles after spending
two years studying and working in the music business. <b>I landed some TV
contracts and already felt invigorated and anxious to start something
new.</b> When I heard about Bell Local, I jumped at the opportunity to them
Toronto Song Project. I knew I had to get two things absolutely right:
the singers and the songs.<br />
<br />
So we started looking everywhere. We
used social media, we called and visited choirs, churches, homeless
shelters… We asked everyone we knew if they knew anyone with a good
voice and a good story. <b>We combed the GTA as best as two people could. </b><br />
<br />
Toronto Song Project involves a lot of things such as:<br />
- Planning a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/torontosongproject?fref=ts" target="_blank">launch party </a>with Bell Local for the pilot episodes where I feature my four singers on stage and some new talent<br />
- <i>Can Anyone In Here Sing?</i> I visit random places in Toronto and beyond and ask that question. <br />
- <i>Tips For Writing Good Songs:</i> Currently filming short videos that give solid, proven advice on how to make your song better.<br />
<b>To be honest, the whole idea scared the heck out of me</b>. It was a big job
– auditions, interviews, schedules, contracts, cameras, crews,
musicians, rehearsals, studios. But mostly, when I stopped to think
that these people were trusting me with something so important, so
personal and intimate, and that <b>I had to honor them with a good song
that they would be proud to sing</b> – it terrified me. The only way to take
it was one day at a time.<br />
<br />
Now that the shows are done, I have
one goal which is to put a spotlight on the four wonderfully talented
singers who took a risk, put their faith in me and the project, and made
it what it is. <b>I love their hearts, their souls, and their courage for
sharing their lives and their most intimate memories, both beautiful
and painful. </b><br />
<h2>
• What is your main career goal? </h2>
To make something the whole world wants. For Toronto Song Project to become the new Motown. I want to meet fun, lovable, passionate people, make their songs happen, and send them out into the world.<br />
<h2>
• What made you throw yourself in the artistic world?</h2>
It’s the only thing I know, or have ever known. When I was little I liked to draw, and I liked to sing. Writing and storytelling came later. I learned to make videos a long time ago and never stopped loving it. Toronto Song Project brings the
whole process together. It’s exactly what I should be doing right now.<br />
<h2>
• What work in your artistic field impresses you?</h2>
Huge <b>pop music</b> fan. People keep lamenting the current state of music and I want them to shutup. So much awesome stuff out there, in the commercial and indie genres. I love <b>visual art</b> with a statement. In LA, I met an artist called <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Alex Schaefer</a> who made a name for himself by painting Chase Banks on fire. Anybody who captures the world’s imagination with a simple idea.<br />
<h2>
• What is the project you are the most proud of?</h2>
I wrote songs with my band <b>Señor Kasio</b> a few years back. I still think it’s my best stuff though very few people – outside of my band – liked it.<br />
If I had to wager, I’d say Toronto Song Project is possibly the best thing I will do.<br />
<h2>
• Where can we find you? </h2>
Brockton Village is my hood. Every morning I’m at <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">The Common</a> (College & Gladstone). Afternoons I like the Black Cat and the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Brockton Haunt</a> for writing. I have a soft spot for <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Bairrada Chusqueira</a> at College and Russholme. Love hitting the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Hen House</a> and other bars in the Dundas & Brock area. Crazy about the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Three Speed</a> at Bloor and Dufferin. Sometimes I walk through the Dufferin Mall for no reason.<br />
<h2>
• If Toronto was a person, what kind would it be?</h2>
I don’t think of Toronto as a person. You could say that about New York, Paris… <b>Toronto to me is a completely, beautifully blank canvas that lets you do whatever the hell you want.</b> Montreal knows who it is and expects you to fit into the narrative it has of itself. Toronto lets you do or be whatever the hell you want. <br />
I guess if it’s a person, it’s a cool guy or gal at a party who’s quiet, listens, and occasionally surprises you by having a great, big unrestrained laugh.<br />
<h2>
• Last word for the road?</h2>
I talked too much as it is lol.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Sharing the same passion as your friend is awesome. You can relate easily because you have the same interests. But what happened when you both become professionals and a potential competitor? </i></div>
<br />
This article has been written with a lovely guest: <a href="http://www.fannylelorrain.com/" target="_blank">Fanny Lelorrain</a>.
Fanny is one of my oldest and closest friend. It was pretty easy to get along, as we met in photography
school. Since then, we graduated, changed
country twice, lived together and are currently neighbors. You can totally say we are like two peas
in a pod. For you today, here are our tips to keep a healthy friendship and avoid starting war.<br />
<h2>
Supporting even you are FAILING.</h2>
This is probably the hardest rule. When your best-friend tells you <span style="color: #a64d79;">"hey, I rocked this photoshoot" </span>when you just failed one, you can feel growing<i> jealousy </i>burning on the inside. Yes just the one like when you were 12 and that damn Jessica had the backpack you wanted. <b>We are human beings, not robots</b>. Our advice is to take a step back and a deep breath to realise who is facing you right now. She's doing great?<b> Good for her and do the same instead having "ENVY"written on your forehead. </b>She is not against you. <span style="color: #a64d79;">Take it as a motivation, not a threat.</span> It is the only way you will push each other to be better.<br />
<br />
<h2>
Honesty and Constructive Cristicism is key.</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEYbny1BwUrXKsATvW8yv-PgceMRbgLVaOXUfx9TeZOB5wksWgPEKbPifRZnmiWr5Zc4yOekDtxQD8Pe-FhL-i1SUpHWSSl31Xx9N3TqHGWHwlj5sfTBuAY62HmD47qFXP3YmVwRN115c/s1600/Fanny-blog.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEYbny1BwUrXKsATvW8yv-PgceMRbgLVaOXUfx9TeZOB5wksWgPEKbPifRZnmiWr5Zc4yOekDtxQD8Pe-FhL-i1SUpHWSSl31Xx9N3TqHGWHwlj5sfTBuAY62HmD47qFXP3YmVwRN115c/s1600/Fanny-blog.png" height="400" width="342" /></a></div>
Sometimes I don't dare asking Fanny her opinions on my work. Not because I don't find it valuable -it's actually quite the opposite- but because <b>I am scared she won't be objective or a 100% honest</b>. It is easy when you hear that your work is good but let's be frank, telling your best-friend that her project is not that good is a hassle.<span style="color: #a64d79;"> However, wouldn't you rather know if your work is lacking quality than having somebody saying everything you do is perfect even when it is not? </span><b>If you want to build a healthy friendship, you need to tell things good or bad. In both cases, back them up.</b> Why is it bad? Or good? What do you think I should have done instead? <br />
<h2>
Do not step on each other's toes.</h2>
Fanny and I recently went to a networking event downtown Toronto. As we have the same tastes in a lot of things,<span style="color: #a64d79;"> our business cards looks pretty much the same</span>. We never copied each other, it just happened. As we were not going to throw them away (might as well throw 60$ down the toilet), we used them while planning on designing something different next time. Point being that, at this event, we handed our business cards to a few people and we looked like Thompson and Thompson<b>.</b> God knows it would have been <b>easy to talk the other down while giving as many cards as you can before she does</b>. <i>If that happened to you already, we are assuming you kissed your friendship good-bye. </i><br />
Instead of this shitty behavior, we took advantage of it with a good sense of humor. As we do want to open a business together at some point, we played this card well. <span style="color: #a64d79;">And we disappeared when the other started a good conversation we didn't need to be included in.</span><br />
<h2>
Building and keeping your own style</h2>
Everybody knows it is pointless to provide the same photography style as somebody else. It is even worse when you are close with that person <i>(unless you start a business together, but that is another story)</i>. Fanny and I both love portraiture. Luckily, I am more a <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.com/" target="_blank">fashion kind of photographer </a>and Fanny is more a <a href="http://juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2014/03/how-to-deal-with-normal-people.html" target="_blank">social photographer</a> and still life. So far, we have managed to <b>keep our work separate by not sharing our team members</b> such as models and makeup artists and work on different inspiration and locations. <b>We also keep our own circles. </b>For example, I would never take potential business opportunities in Fanny's family or friends unless she askes me to, and vice versa. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are celebrating our 6th year of friendship in 2015, and I am happy to have a friend I can talk business with. As every relationship is work, by being honest and focusing on your difference, you will manage to deal with bittersweet moments and even find unconditional support. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<i>You have been working on a shooting idea for a while now, and finally the big day is here. Time to make your project come true and avoid screw-ups. After doing this for a few years, I believe that I am able to take a step back and think about things that shouldn't happen while you are on a set to work.</i> </div>
<h2>
Coming unprepared</h2>
Picture the situation: you have your camera and lights ready, you may even have artistics directors breathing down your neck. And then, <b>BAM</b>, no more battery. Or your memory card is not working for some reason. <span style="color: #a64d79;">Of course you don't have a spare one.</span> Nightmare. You should always have a way to avoid this kind of situation. Always. <span style="font-size: x-small;">Seriously, just writing it makes me cringe</span>. <br />
<h2>
Thinking you will take care of more or less important details in post production</h2>
How many times have I told myself <span style="color: #a64d79;">"I will take care of this with photoshop"</span> when my background is <i>wrinkly</i>, or the makeup is <i>smudged</i>. <b>You end up spending so much time in post-production and after cleaning a background on 12 differents pictures, you are probably dying a little</b>. If only you took care of this before shooting instead of wasting your time now...<br />
<h2>
Having one idea in mind and changing it at the last minute</h2>
This used to be <span style="color: #a64d79;">my biggest flaw.</span> I have one idea on paper, precise shots to take and set ups and <b>nope, I went from 0 to 60, two minutes before shooting.</b> Maybe because it was easier in my head than in reality? Maybe because I had another great idea last minute? In every case, <span style="color: #a64d79;">I always regretted not sticking to my initial idea</span>, even if I had good shots anyway. Which leads me to..<br />
<h2>
Going for the easiest way</h2>
When you are not lucky enough to see the shooting location before hand, or when you are uncertain of your studio light set ups and you have to be fast, one can find easier to go for something simplier <span style="color: #a64d79;">to make sure it is a clean shot.</span> <b>Which is not necessarily a bad thing if you don't do it all the time</b>. This is why...<br />
<h2>
You need to be an organization freak.</h2>
Write <b>EVERYTHING</b>. Draw if you can. And if, like me, <i>drawing is as hard as open heart surgery,</i> you can create lighting diagrams <span id="goog_1907442852"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">online</a><span id="goog_1907442853"></span>. As I am not working in a studio as much as I used to, <span style="color: #a64d79;">I have a tendency to freak out just thinking about how the hell I am going to lit up a scene</span>. Writing my idea down is like a therapy.<br />
<h2>
Working with absolute beginners all the time when you are not one. </h2>
Here, I said it. Don't get me wrong, <span style="color: #a64d79;">I have worked with students or absolute beginners and I will keep doing it.</span> Some of them were really talented and creative, some of them... weren't. Working with someone can barely show you their work, even if it is just pictures taken with a phone, <b>is a risk.</b> You can only blame yourself afterwards, when you are back in post-production, trying to solve a hair problem or makeup flaws.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>This post is from a photographer point of view, but it can work for any career in the image creation industry. Mistakes suck, but it is a good way to learn and be better at what you do. I hope this will help you a little bit, and if you would like to add anything, leave a comment!</i></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am Kyle Orzech, an actor, an artist, a radical thinker, reader, lover and explorer, searching for truth and fighting for peace. I work all over Canada, performing in various types of theatre and currently live in Montreal.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Why does this project matter to you?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This project matters to me because a) Juliette is, herself, a fierce artist with a bold personality and vision, so supporting her is a no brainer and b) it's a great way to connect likeminded artists of Toronto and expose them to each other and others.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What projects are you up to?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Currently working on a TYA show called "Beneath the Banyan Tree" with <span style="color: black;"><a href="https://www.theatredirect.ca/index.php/current-season/beneath-the-banyan-tree-2014-2015/" target="_blank">Theatre Direct</a> </span>and then heading to the <a href="http://www.shawfest.com/" target="_blank">Shaw Festival</a> for the world-premier of "The Divine" by Michel Marc Bouchard.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is your main career goal? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">To stay happy and love what I do every single day. Simple, but what more is there?</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What made you throw yourself in the artistic world?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> It was literally all I knew. I wasn't great in school - never got exceptional marks - but I did know how to tell a good story and make people laugh. Plus I love entertaining people and expressing myself, showing different sides of myself to others.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
• What work in your artistic field impresses you?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> I love theatre or film that surprises me. I love seeing something and thinking "I didn't see that coming." or "I can't believe they just did that." Usually this comes from actors and director's who are either very smart and/or very fearless.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• What is the project you are the most proud of?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It's a clear tie between my work with <a href="http://www.sheatre.com/" target="_blank">Sheatre</a>, where I toured Saskatchewan performing in a Forum Theatre piece, educating children of all ages about sexual assault, substance and spousal abuse (even visited some reservations and saw some truly miraculous things), and my work with <a href="http://www.yestheatre.com/">YES Theatre</a> in Sudbury, where myself and about 25 other young artists come together annually to stage some of the most mind-blowing musical theatre I have ever seen.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Where can we find you? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Chances are, I will most likely find you first... but if you ARE looking for me, I will be anywhere in Canada, acting up and causing trouble. Or just sitting in-front of a delicious plate of penne primavera at <a href="http://www.7westcafe.com/">7 West</a>, Toronto. Or at the movies. Or in the woods, Geocaching.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• If Toronto was a person what kind would it be? </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Um... A very confused, judgemental, misguided, fat middle-aged Uncle with a cold because he wore his designer jacket out, even though it was -20. He's possibly drunk, and a little bit broke too.</span><br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">• Last word for the road?</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">PLUR. </span><br />

the world. And that something you like: the world ! You love meeting different

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Here is my first fashion photoshoot of 2015! I don't know about you, but I am happy to see that <span id="goog_1270826552"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">I am sticking to my photographic resolution <span id="goog_1270826553"></span></a>to build one big shoot per month. And trust me, this one was kind of a hassle to organize, knowing that all I had was the lovely <span id="goog_1270826556"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Jennie<span id="goog_1270826557"></span></a> to model. </i></div>
<br />
Fortunately, I ended up finding Nidhi and her brushes followed by other beloved team members I worked with in the past: <span id="goog_1270826544"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Breeyn McCarney<span id="goog_1270826545"></span></a> and <span id="goog_1270826540"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/">Two Lamb Boutique<span id="goog_1270826541"></span></a> for the <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2014/03/second-shoot-of-2014-princess-dresses.html">dress</a> and <a href="https://www.blogger.com/"><span id="goog_1270826610"></span>jewelery<span id="goog_1270826611"></span></a>. Everything finally came together when I found out that I will be lucky enough to have access to a beautiful house to shoot in. I was looking for an elegant living room, and ended up with gorgeous stairs and chandelier on top of that. <br />
<br />
My only (and painful) regret is that <span style="color: #741b47;">I didn't have studio lights to lit up the scene</span> but two cobra flashes <i>(one SB 700 and one SB 900)</i>. God knows it would have been a blast and also a LOT easier to use proper softboxes and beauty dishes, especially because the rooms were a little darker than I thought.<br />
<br />
But hey, let's face it, <span style="color: #741b47;">I have rarely never been in a photoshoot where takes place according to plan.</span><i> </i>And it is actually not that bad because <span style="color: #741b47;">it teaches you how to cope with difficult situation</span>s and that is how you build <b>a strong career</b> in my opinion. Plus, it gives you good stories to share with others. Win win. <br />

<h2 style="text-align: center;">
With <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.ca/2015/01/je-suis-charlie.html" target="_blank">what happened in France last week,</a> I didn't have the opportunity to wish you all my best for 2015.<br />May it be full of joy, love and great projects. </h2>
Because projects are so important. They keep you going. When you don't really know where you are heading, nothing is better than focusing <span style="color: #a64d79;">on a new project to keep the machine well-oiled</span>. This is probably what I missed last year. And this is probably why I do not feel satisfied about my end of 2014.<br />
<br />
When I had a look at my <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/retropective-2014.html" target="_blank">2014 retrospective</a>, I told myself<i> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"God, I took a
lot less pictures than in 2013"</span></i>. I don't really know what happened, and
I wish I did because it sucks. <br />
<br />
As I am a list freak and I love new projects, I decided to take some
resolutions. Don't expect the usual <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><i>"I will go to the gym everyday and stop eating cookies"</i></span> because I am talking about artistic resolutions.<br />
<br />
<h3>
So, 2015, get ready, because here I come:</h3>
<ol>
<li>I want to do at least <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">one <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/jolie-mome.html#" target="_blank">photoshoot</a> per month</span></b>. Build it from scratch. Work with new models. I already have 2 ideas in mind, ideas I have been thinking about for a while. <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.com/contact.html" target="_blank">I need new women faces, interested?</a></li>
<li>I want to <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">start the art project</span></b> I have been working on for a month by shutting up the voices in my head which keep saying that it is lame. <i>You are your own worst enemy, and it is the hardest to get rid of. </i></li>
<li>I want to <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">take pictures of music bands.</span></b> I have never done it, and I am dying to do something different. <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.com/contact.html" target="_blank">(interested again?)</a></li>
<li>I want to work even more on this blog with #2 and add more <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">lifestyle and technical articles</span></b>. It has been way better since I have been writing at least every week. </li>
<li> <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">I don't want to feel like <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/when-you-want-to-give-up.html" target="_blank">giving up</a>.</span></b> 2014 had some really dark moments inspiration wise. For the first time of my life, I am not happy with what I had been doing. This has got to stop.</li>
<li>I want to do more <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/first-canadian-wedding-ryan-val.html" target="_blank">weddings</a>. Now that I am allowed to (thank you Immigration Canada, woot, woot!), I want to get back to <b><span style="color: #a64d79;">the wedding rythm</span></b> I had in France. </li>
<li>Another important point we can forget: <span style="color: #a64d79;"><b>I want to keep learning</b></span>. Books, conferences, meetups, anything to stay up to date and get more skills.</li>
</ol>
And the cheesy #8<b><span style="color: #a64d79;"> I want to keep working with amazing people.</span></b> I have met some many great clients, artists, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/JulietteCPhotography" target="_blank">people that support my work</a>. Let's keep them coming!<br />
<br />

<i>I am not an event photographer but I learnt how to be one when I was an intern for 2 years at the Police Headquarters of Paris. </i></div>
<br />
Since yesterday, there has been an ugly shadow all over France. People were killed. You probably heard about the « Je Suis Charlie » movement social media.<br />
<br />
Charlie Hebdo is a satirical newspaper. It always has been. <span style="color: #741b47;">And as one of the oldest values of our Republic is our freedom of speech,</span> nobody should ever die for drawing or writing ideas.<br />
<br />
But two days ago, 2 fanatics entered the newspaper building, <b>killing as many people as possible</b>. 12 people died. Among them 4 famous cartoonists and 2 policemen. <br />
Yesterday a policewoman lost her life as well. Since this morning, two hostage crisis are happening. The world is not right.<br />

<b>All I can think about is the fact that, yesterday and today, some people got up, went to work and never came back. </b><br />
<h2>
We should always be thankful for being surrounded by people brave enough to say what they think and do what they believe in. This is clearly not a day to spread hatred towards people who don’t deserve it. Let’s stick together and show our support.</h2>
That is what we did on January 7, in Toronto. <i>The French community gathered with their friends and families, in front of the embassy on Bloor Street.</i> We had candles, flags and posters to <span style="color: #741b47;">pay our respects to people who lost their lives. </span><br />

<i>Needless to say that you need to learn how to make a difference between good and bad advice A good advice can be gold and can follow you like a shadow in your career. To start 2015 in a great way, here are the 5 best tips I received. Even if they are some advice I am still trying to apply to myself every day, sharing is caring, so enjoy!</i></div>
<h2>
When you shoot, always tell a story.</h2>
This was my first advice when I started as an intern in event photography. When you deliver your work, keep it in order. It is really disturbing to start with a wedding ceremony when you actually started with the bride getting ready. You are taking pictures of an event? <span style="color: #a64d79;">Do it chronologically</span>. <i>Remember: the art of photography series is not only showing quality work, it is making one's imagination working.</i><br />
<h2>
Set up a good archive system.</h2>
I learnt this one when I was an intern <strike>(I did quite a few internships)</strike> in London. The photographer I was working for<span style="color: #a64d79;"> had several backups and an amazing way to classify his photo shoots</span>. I myself use the following folders: year / category of the photo shoot (wedding, portrait, fashion) / shoots with dates and description / RAW folder / PSD / JPG HD / JPG low res. It becomes handy when a client loses the pictures I sent them, or when I am going through my work. It takes only a few seconds to find it.<br />
<h2>
Don't get cocky</h2>
After getting lots of good reviews of your work, some people can have a tendency to get a little '<i>'I can do whatever, and I am always doing it perfectly because I am so good''</i>. <b>I did it. I am not proud of it. </b>In every career but especially in every digital, <u>you always learn.</u> <span style="color: #a64d79;">Technologies are changing fast, you need to stay up to date if you want to pursue the way you intend to. </span>If you get cocky or proud, you will end up doing always the same thing because it is safe. <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/looking-back-can-burn-your-eyes-but-its.html" target="_blank">You will do projects that will suck, but it is okay, </a>because the only failure is never to try. <br />
<h2>
Ask for reviews, to the good people</h2>
Your family and closed friends love you (hopefully) and will always tell you that everything you do is great. Sometimes, it is time to do something hard: ask a total (skilled) stranger what they think about your work. It is hard, because it can be negative and your ego might get bruised big time. But what are the options then: <span style="color: #a64d79;">staying in a mediocre quality because you didn't dare asking, or getting better because you got help on where to go to? </span><br />
<h2>
Don't be scared to say you are a photographer</h2>
A lot of people don't consider photography as a proper career. There are many people at the door and we lost credibility with faux-tographers. How many times have I told strangers that I am a photographer and then got the famous silent with the look that says <a href="http://www.juliettecapdevielle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/5-things-every-photographer-hear-at.html" target="_blank">"so, what do you do for real?"</a>.<br />
Surprisingly, you get more recognition in Canada than in France when you say that you are an artist. It is true that Canadians are less judgemental than French people (and that's coming from a Frenchie), but that is another story.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I hope these tips will help you grow in your artistic career. Nothing is easy and I am still struggling to force myself to learn all of this. This is one way to get better in whatever you do, and it feels good when you start walking to the top of the mountain. Happy New Year. May it be full of amazing projects you will lead.</i></div>
