Juzzy recently shot shot the Ripcurl music festival in Bidart just south of Biarritz. In what was supposed to be a two day event. A crazy storm came in after the first night and forced the event to be cancelled for day two… No Worries… as Day one was RAD, Stand outs by the frech surf rockers, Le Femme and the energetic guys from The Klaxons rocking the huge crowd on the beach. Good times!
With Juzzy in France he’s getting amongst the summer surf scene. A highlight on the calendar was the Nike Cash for tricks put on by the rad crew at BlueStar Revolution, it’s different to the standard surfing contests, the Nike 6.0 Cash for Tricks criteria is derived from a popular skateboarding format where mind blowing tricks get rewarded with cash. The concept is real simple… the bigger, more technical the trick is, the more money the competitors get. Aside from the competition, Nike 6.0 Cash for Tricks is also about having fun with a live DJ pumping out some rocking tunes to create a summer beach party vibe.

The Camera Club presents SoundSchool by Julian May: A behind the scenes photographic exploration of SoundSchool, a musical journey from Sydney to Delhi, India and back.
SoundSchool is a series of Australian music events and initiatives, raising money to purchase musical instruments, teaching aids and tuition for street children in underprivileged countries. SoundSchool’s debut fundraising event came to life with a rocking gig at The Beach Road Hotel, Bondi in August 2010 raising in excess of $20,000 which went directly toward starting the very first SoundSchool in Delhi, India November 2010.
Local shutter bug, Julian May heard about SoundSchool and fast became their official photographer documenting the SoundSchool journey. In November, 2010 Julian packed a bag (at his own expense) for Delhi, India to document the set up of the very first SoundSchool for the street children of Salaam Baalak Trust.
This debut exhibition showcases Julian’s exploration in a timeline that is SoundSchool’s amazing adventure to date. From the first fundraiser, to the streets and sights of India, the wonderful kids picking up a guitar for the first time to their very first gig!
SoundSchool by Julian May is being exhibited at the The Camera Club, upstairs at the Beach Road Hotel, Bondi Beach. A community-minded bar & gallery that’s dedicated to celebrating creativity through camera-based pursuits. SoundSchool follows on from the success of recent exhibitions including ‘We All Have Teenage Fantasies’, ‘Fancy That!’ and ‘We Stand Sideways curated by Stab’.
“We’re super excited to see SoundSchool bring their fantastic project to the walls of The Camera Club in what will be a show unlike any other to date”. Darryl Nichols, Co-Founder, The Camera Club
Entry to The Camera Club is free of charge with the SoundSchool by Julian May will be hanging on the walls for six weeks, with Thursday nights hosting a revolving schedule of music, food and photography activations.
Knack’s been hanging around Otis like a bad smell lately. Why? Apart from thinking he’s a super rad dude, they’re making some visuals together. “A day in Bondi with a Cobba Dingo” It’s a short film about surfing the east. The eastern suburbs that is… The talented aerialist is really pushing progressive surfing and having just signed to arnette, look out for some dope stuff to come. Stay tuned for when “A day in Bondi with a Cobba Dingo” is out of the edit suite and onto your screens…
Juzzy & Rob have just returned from a great little trip to Bali with Roxy. Art Directing the High Summer Photo shoot and Directing/Shooting the High Summer Brand Video, the boys had an amazing time. In what bwas a dream job working with a fantastic bunch of people. Stay tuned for the videos and artwork to come out of the shoot when its launched. Here’s a little visual splash in the mean time…
Knack photographer Justin Barnwell recently shot the Perv S2011 Look Book. The location shots were all taken at Clovelly pool while the individual sunnies shots were all shot in the studio. Knack Studios did all design for the look book and it’s being printed up on some super gloss paper. BOOM. Check out Perv’s site for more info.
After two successful exhibitions, ‘we all have teenage fantasies’ and ‘Fancy That’ The Camera Club,a community based bar & gallery space that’s dedicated to celebrating creativity through camera related pursuits, is now set to deliver its third photographic showcase ‘We Stand Sideways’.

leading surf lensmen including Richie Freeman, Sergio Villalba, Ryan Miller & Ben Brown amongst many others. From the Canary Islands & Iceland through Asia & South Pacific here is a top-shelf selection that’ll make you wanna slide!
“I believe you will find this exhibition incredibly comely. It is a metaphor – the surfer trapped in the wave’s crazy hypnosis – for all the black men living in ghetto torture chambers, deballed by the poisonous pus of crime and pimpdom. You may find the link tenuous. For us, We Stand Sideways is a metaphorical portrait of ghetto life – a masterpiece!” Derek Rielly, Stab Magazine
“We’ve so much respect for the team at Stab and absolutely honoured to have them involved in curating the We Stand Sideways exhibition. Its shaping up to be really quite special.” Darryl Nichols. Co-Founder, The Camera Club
The ‘We Stand Sideways’ exhibition launch party is being held Thursday April-14 from 7pm with a special sideways-inspired free cocktail on entry and live dj. If you’re in the market for some seriously impressive surf photography then get ready to get down!

THE CAMERA CLUB presents…
FANCY THAT!
‘Sh#t for your lounge room wall’
After a successful launch in August with their first exhibition, ‘we all have teenage fantasies’ The Camera Club, a community based bar & gallery space that’s dedicated to celebrating creativity through camera-related pursuits, is now set to deliver its second installment ‘Fancy That!’.
Fancy That! features the work of 10 exhibiting photographers including James Broadhurst, Gavin Rea, Akila Berjaoui and has been curated under The Camera Clubs ‘six degrees of separation’ philosophy. Under this approach the club selects an overarching theme and then chooses a photographer to exhibit, who then selects the second and so on. The end result is 10 micro-galleries each of which is connected via the group show theme and exhibiting photographers via six-degrees of separation.
The Camera Club concept has been well received locally and a growing demand for more frequent exhibitions has inspired club creators Justin Barnwell and Darryl Nichols to extend the activities of the club and its commitment to the photographic community. “We have a number of exciting plans on the agenda” comments Barnwell. “What we really need is someone to head them up, like a Club President’ adds Nichols. The two have just launched an little campaign in an attempt to recruit The Camera Club President, who will help facilitate a range of activities, including curating exhibitions, shooting photographs and partying with exhibiting photographers.’ Applications close on November-19, 201.

In keeping with its community-based approach The Camera Club has also launched a number of extensions including a member library, vintage photo booth, exhibition inspired cocktails and camera related inspiration from the past, present and future.
The Camera Club is located upstairs at the Beach Road Hotel, Bondi Beach and open from 6pm Tuesday – Sunday.
