Dream Girl  Rock the House  Shoot and Edited by Geoffrey Chuah Blurb written by Geoffrey Chuah ​It’s been way to long   LaMode magazine Blurb   I ask you this, do you miss something if you haven’t done it for a while.    I do, and I think this is the reason why this editorial is being posted. I have been working on my video editing skills more than ever and in that time since the last editorial I posted. I have been booked for a number of jobs that I can say that I am very proud of that I have edited. I won’t go into what kind of jobs but they were good jobs ..read more

Surf And Turf  If you have been around long enough, you will know that certain industries have a battle with the sexes. What I mean by this is who is trying to be better than the other, whilst we are making an effort to leverage the status of woman in general.    Or are we not trying hard enough.    Some industries have tried to equalize woman. An example of that is Marvel and Disney, hiring woman as there leads over the white male actor. We can debate about that for hours but for now this blurb is about why woman are not made to be equal as men.    I think ..read more

Reload,Reset,Recut. There is always light at the end of the tunnel no matter how bad the situation you maybe in. I am writing this from the point of view of being in lockdown for close to two and a half months. And knowing that I will be able to live with more freedom in what should be in about 5-6 weeks.   Whilst I have been in lockdown. LaMode magazine has been working hard to re-cut and recreate new videos from old editorials. We love the fact that if you work in the creative industry everyone has a different point of view.   Which can be good if you all have the same view on the ..read more

The Collection. When the word "bikini" drops into your head you think of the female form don’t, we? Or more to the point we think of a beautiful place with even more amazing things to do when we are in the sun.     But I think what we really think of, when the word bikini drops into your head, is the amazing females that wear them.   So, when it was bought to my attention a few days ago, that world “bikini day” was dropping on the 5th of July, by the way it is the middle of Winter here in Sydney, but Summer in the Northern Hemisphere. The mind runs riot to what you se ..read more

Watsons Bay to Manly and Back  The word “change” is something that not everyone likes and will always not conform too.   Some of us are happy to do it if it will benefit us and some of us hate it. Most of the time when we get into a routine and then have to change it, we sometimes don’t always like it due to the fact that we are so use to the one that we have. And that the new routine will seem weird and we have too work hard within our self’s to make it work for whoever or whatever we are doing it for.   So what I am getting at is, is change good? Or is it necessary to evolve s ..read more

Gold Rush This may will be the last swim editorial for LaMode Magazine for a while, I can’t travel overseas yet so the chances of another swim editorial gracing the pages till next season are very unlikely.   But till then you can enjoy what we plan on publishing in the future. Speaking of the future, with more restrictions coming off on Monday the 29th of March, if seems like things are getting back to normal. Which I don’t have to tell you how wonderful it is, we can stand and drink, dance, sing and not have to wear a mask. And what’s more out-door gatherings have increased to 200 which ..read more

"From Dusk" I think we all know why online shopping has taken off in the last 12 months, so I don’t have to harp on about why we are sitting at home and ordering online.   But what the subject of this blurb is about.   Is why we buy clothes and the other bits and pieces that we may use once or twice, and only  wear them a few times and then discard into the “I have wore that twice bin and I can’t wear it anymore” in which the clothes are now deemed useless.   So why do some of us do this??   I can tell you why we have that obsession or should I say bad habit. And the o ..read more

How You Can Shine Through The Clouds  It’s funny how we reset our lives every 365 days. I mean we can have a crap house of a year then boom, we can reset it by numbers.   We all love Summer just about has much as I love shooting landscapes or a scene I may see in the street or while I am traveling, not that I have been able to do much of that lately. What I am getting at is that we Iove the reset button that the human brain has, it doesn’t matter if it is the end of the year or jumping on a plane or in a car and getting away from everything for a bit. To do exactly that: reset and br ..read more

"It's Never Good Bye Only Hello" What a year, I think everyone knows that!!! When I published the second issue of LaMode, The Second Coming, I wrote in my editor’s note that if you are put into a negative situation, you should try and gain something positive from it.   I think this year has not been any exception?? It has been dam hard for some of us and with  Melbourne going into stage 4 lock down that ended up being drawn out for 4 months, I am sure that would of had an effect on a lot of people. Not being able to leave the house after 8pm and only being able too exercise for an ho ..read more
