Baz Luhrmann and Nicole Kidman feature in a stunning photographic spread for the Vanity Fair March 2009 issue. The piece is entitled Hollywood Portfolios. Some of the actor-director teams featured have a history together, while others produced their first mind-melds in 2008. Nonetheless, in each case the chemistry was profound, the effect exponential.
This most recent photographic session was undertaken by none other than legendary photographer
Annie Leibovitz. If that name sounds familiar to you, it should. Not only have Annie’s past photographs left their mark on hollywood history, but more recently she visited the sets of
Australia and produced some stunning shots for the film
as reported in June 2008.

December may have only just begun, but awards season will be upon us before we know it. Testament to this is the fact that For Your Consideration ads are now appearing in entertainment magazines such as Variety.
Awards Daily have just updated with two new full page FYC advertisements for Australia, in all categories, particularly Best Picture.
With the use of a smouldering image which sadly does not appear in the film itself (seen right) we think it might catch the eyes of a few important voters!
Meawhile, a big thank you to all who have donated so far! We’re still looking for assistance, so if you’ve got some spare change in your pockets please read more on how to donate here!
