What a breath of fresh air Alizée would have been in this country. I was pleased to watch that SNL video. Years ago I used to watch them religiously, even after all the good actors left and it suffered through years of mediocrity, you couldn't pay me not to watch it. Now you couldn't pay me to watch it. It's just gotten too political. I'm assuming that's Johann's car in the picture. Hopefully he is doing well with the business he started in Ajaccio. |

If that is indeed his Porsche, he must be doing “ not too badly”...
Very nice. |

I have known a few photographers that had a business and did well. Once you get past the startup costs, there is not much overhead compared to other service businesses. A professional camera can easily set you back 6 or 7 grand (if you get a Nikon). You have to have a backup camera in case the first one fails. Then the lenses... and the lights... and the gadgets. Johann probably inherited some of Jo's equipment, or gets to use it. Maybe they struck a deal between them. In any event, Johann probably did not have to start from scratch and makes it all the better. |

2; What is the significance of the ring/rings? 3; I saw a related image on FB. It had a Google translation of the original post. I think the English version wasn't translated well. violence resized.jpg vc.jpg A friend from Finland pointed out they called Alizée "Chanteuse"!

https://vimeo.com/336196897 2. You click on the rings and they are labeled "danielwellington". I looked up the site, and it is a Malaysian based company selling designer watches and jewelry accessories. All prices are in Malaysian currency, and with the strong dollar, 1 USD=4 RM makes the prices relatively cheap I guess. I don't shop for jewelry so I don't really have anything to compare it to. |

The name of his shop is Club Fesch/Romance Sneakers. I walked past it in my last visit to Ajaccio, but it was closed. I found this video he made of it.
http://vimeo.com/266173673 Club Fesch Romance sneakers.jpg A couple of years ago he came out with a video called something like Yogacalifornia which was about that beach area at Little Capo, near the Blood Islands. I thought he did a good job with that and with that and another video, I liked his taste in music. I wonder if he's taken any courses in photography? I'm sure his dad gives him some tips, but it seems like Jo focuses (no pun intended) more on photographs, than videos. Edit: Looking at the video CleverCowboy posted a link for and another one done by Johann, I have to say they look professionally done. When you get married, you don't turn the job of filming the video over to anyone, not even the brother of a beautiful singer like Alizée, just because of who they are related to. It's a life time memory, so you choose someone who knows what they are doing and I have to think that Johann knew very well what he was doing and the videos he made were ones I would love to have if I were in that positions in my next life (Lord knows it's too late for this life!) So I have to think, he did have some training in this area. https://vimeo.com/282999559 Last edited by Scruffydog777; 06-03-2019 at 04:03 PM.. Reason: Automerged Doubleposts |

Johann is a Jacotey and they have talent and smarts in the family. Having a couple of businesses is right in line with what the family is capable of. |

http://vimeo.com/266173673 Attachment 2665 That was a very interesting video. I wonder if the place always serves food & beverages, or if that was some kind of special party or event. It looks like it has a set up for serving drinks, at least, so maybe it’s a regular thing. A very unique idea, at least as far as my experience goes. I hope he’s doing well with it. When you walked by and it was closed, Scruffy, was that just because it was after business hours or did it seem closed for some other reason? Edit: Quote:

I'm glad I went back for a second look.
Johann has other videos he put together. Here is one of his sister with special guest Annily. https://vimeo.com/226445107 Vimeo is not so easy to download from but managed to do it. If anybody wants to save it for their collection, I loaded it on my google drive. https://drive.google.com/open?id=15n...iqnG6fG6V5mFxW Last edited by CleverCowboy; 06-06-2019 at 08:24 AM.. |
