An Incubator for Creative Minds

Last night the Viscious team got along to Film Incubator at the Oxford Arts Factory.

The night was a sell-out with capacity crowds and plenty of networking to be had!

Fashion Future made a impressive showing with their glamourous models striking some incredible poses to keep the crowd on their toes.

The Australian Cinematographers Society was also in full force showcasing the 2010 Award winners.

Film Incubator is a film market and licensing expo. It is a great event to meet people from the film, fashion, media and creative industries to explore new ventures and source creative talent.

The Organiser's did a top job on the night with live entertainment and hungry creatives mingling in sleek and electric surrounds.

Viscious Kitty

The Viscious team collaborated with Australian Fashion Designer Kit Willow to create this video showcasing her latest designs.

Six weeks shy of giving birth to her second baby, Kit Willow is sitting this New York fashion week out. Instead, she’s showcasing her collection first on Style.com with Lady Into Cat, a Sharif Hamza-directed, Laura Holmes Produced, Stefan Duscio DOP'd and Viscious production starring two fellow Aussies, the beautiful Emma Balfour and a wild cat to which they fed multiple chickens to get these shots.

This wild cat was the only demanding talent on set. The Director and DOP had to close off the set to capture the striking cat shots, allowing the model to safely interact with the wild cat and produce some stunning footage.

MOVIE - Stone

Did the late, great Heath Ledger borrow his classic line used in Dog Town: "Wear them with pride, man" from this classic Australian film?

Viscious bites into some Youngbloods

The Viscious collective headed down to Tattlers in Sydney's bustling Kings Cross on Thursday 12th August.
The occasion - the NSW Youngbloods winter party.

There were plenty of red wines, beers and tequila shots flowing which only made our humanly intake of vitamin water between chosen poisons sky rocket!

Although we were unlucky enough to not even get a look into the lucky door prize we were lucky enough to spin the vitamin Water prize wheel and bring up trumps with a case of vitamin water and some funky speakers.

In true Sydney style we ran into some familiar faces and managed to get the party started. Let's just say friday morning was a slow morning although vitamin water did soften the blow.... perhaps they should be endorsing us for this blog entry??

If you're wondering what Youngbloods is and what they do? well they're a body for young people (under 10 years advertising experience) in the advertising industry. They aim is to provide opportunities for young people to learn from business leaders, network with their peers and have a say on industry issues and future direction, all while supporting other young people though Australian charity 'Reach Out'.
