Day 7


Sounds like it's all been very glamorous again today... despite a small champagne fiasco that I'll let you all in on in a just a mo.

In each post so far I've been banging on about how full on and busy the work is for Joe. It may all seem glam, which it is, but there's certainly an element of blood, sweat and tears too.

Just to put it all into perspective, Joe will attend a premiere in the evening and his photos could well be in the press the day after or on online news sites, such as MSN, within a matter of hours. In this time, Joe has to take the photos, fight his way into the press room, go through and edit around 800+ pictures per red carpet event, and then file them to the press. This process has to be repeated for each premiere so it's pretty much non stop and the key is to be organised as well as fast. This way, Joe can attend the premieres he wishes to and take as many quality photos as possible, thereby increasing the likelihoods of press use. But as I said, he works well under pressure and the experience of writing this blog has made me realise the speed at which he works- he can have photos sent to me within just a couple of hours, if that, of being at an event. This is definitely a quality to aspire to- the guy works his socks off!

So far Joe has supplied The Daily Mail with Jane Fonda pictures and The Mail Online with Lily Cole, and finally, The Mirror with Kelly Brook. Magazines are yet to come!


Anyway... back to today. Joe's been at two premieres, the first was a bit dull- a French film- although it was lifted by the appearance of the lovely Kelly Brook. Following this, Joe was at the Indian Pavilion for the launch of 'Gangs of Wasseypur' film launch- an Indian film. The most memorable part for Joe- a champagne fanatic- was that a waitress gave him champagne with an ice cube in the glass... a crime in his book! Joe's inner diva came out in response as although he stopped himself from slapping the girl, he poured the contents of the glass on the floor in front of her. Just for the record, I did accuse Joe of being "norty"!

Later, Joe will be back at the cinema on the beach for Berenice Marlohe's unveiling of the first public screening of the Skyfall teaser. It will be the first ever public theatrical screening of the films teaser trailer. She will be alongside Martine Beswick, the original bond girl who starred as Zora in 'From Russia With Love' and as Paula in 'Thunderball'. This will be part of the outdoor screening that is celebrating 50 years of Bond this year.    

Your best behaviour from now on please Joe!
