Sitting down with the group that will soon be known across the country as the Crazy 8 was interesting. There is a definite dynamic between the guys, and they seem to already have many inside jokes.
The Crazy 8 in their seating order from left to right:
Sven Ruygrok: Rambo
Travis Hornsby: Boggo
Jamie Royal: Gecko
Josh Goddard: Mad Dog
Thomas Burne: Vern
Blessing Xaba: Fatty
Unfortunately Byron Langley (Simon) couldn’t join us due to exams. Troye Sivan’s (Spud) interview will be up on the site soon, watch this space.
An interesting take on the concert movie genre, leaning more towards a documentary style. It’s heart warming and full of fluff but it also shows that the Biebs is more than just a teenage icon, he’s extremely talented. I took two Bieber haters with me to watch the movie and although they weren’t exactly singing his praises, they admitted that the kid had talent. The movie does feel like a opportunistic grab at making some easy money off a die hard fan base, but it gives the fans what they want and how often do movies achieve that?
I couldn’t let the opportunity to be a part of one of the biggest movie collaborations of all time go by, without throwing in something of my own. The following video was filmed on the 24th of July 2010 for YouTube’s Life in a Day project. Be warned, this is completely unedited footage, which covers 10 minutes and includes the following shots:
Food Market
- Breakfeast (Cooking Egg)
South African Flag
Cash Withdrawal
House and Garden Show
Helicopter training
I’ll let you know if any of it gets included in the final film
