INSIDER (new Rose cover)
replied on: 7/1/2004 1:57:34 AM The Australian 15/6/04 Insider trading on independent principles IF you believe Catherine Caines, the key to a good pop culture magazine is all about keeping it left-of-centre and leaving out "advertainments" usually found in celebrity-obsessed magazines. Caines is the editor of the new pop culture magazine The Insider, a biannual glossy that aims to fit into the publishing market where the now defunct titles HQ and Australian Style tried and failed. "We're going to be as independent as we are unique," Caines told The Australian yesterday. "They fell by the wayside because they fell victim to being an extension of lifestyle shows, but with an independent publishing house we don't have to follow those principles. "It is a tough industry and of course we have some concerns, but we're certainly not going to be a opromotional tool for someone like (The Block host) Jamie Durie." The Insider is published by If Media, the same group behind the If Awards -- known as the "people's choice" Australian film awards -- and IF (Inside Film) magazine, the local film industry's monthly bible. The Insider is using a unique approach, both in its content and selling points (at newsagents, alternative cinema chains and film festivals), to try to sustain itself in the saturated magazine market. The first edition -- to be launched in Sydney tonight with an initial print run of 20,000 -- features Australian actress Rose Byrne, a co-star of Troy, on the cover. Caines said she hoped The Insider will stand alone because of its alternative approach of using people inside the pop culture industry to provide content -- for example, cinematographers taking photos of actors, and screenwriters writing about sports stars. Caines, a 33-year-old former writer, film-maker, stylist and creative director, said it would be a difficult task steering a magazine that would be trying to determine what was hot in Australian pop culture -- from music and film to fashion and the arts -- for readers to peruse over a six-month period. "We're living in a pretty conservative culture now, which is starting to skew back to the Left," she said. "So we're trying to reflect that, and also offer our readers an alternative to the usual lifestyle magazines which are so celebrity-focused these days, treating celebrities like an entertainment brand, more like 'advertainments'. "We're gambling on the fact that people will want to read something with style and substance -- and read stories about people who will actually still be relevant in six months' or six years' time, not just tomorrow." |

replied on: 7/1/2004 1:43:51 AM The Age 16/5/04 The rise of Rose The luckiest girl in the world. That is the tag being applied to the actor formerly known as Rose Byrne because of her scenes opposite Brad Pitt in Troy. Byrne ducked home to Sydney for a photo shoot inside Kings Cross nightspot Baron's. The 24-year-old was posing for Insider magazine, a new pop culture title being released in June. The shots, by Roger Deckker, show Byrne draped across various couches. She is now enjoying legendary status for getting up close and personal with Pitt on screen, then pretending it wasn't a big deal. |

replied on: 7/1/2004 1:42:17 AM The Advertiser 19/5/04 Looks that brought Achilles to heel AND we remember when she was just a sweet, naive country chick in Two Hands. Aussie girl made good Rose Byrne is relishing her role as a sexy Hollywood bombshell, especially the love scenes with hunk Brad Pitt . Stunning in sandals for the epic Troy, Byrne is going from strength to strength in her acting career - and from one dishy leading man to the next, graduating from starring opposite Heath Ledger to Pitt. The brunette has just done a risque shoot with The Insider magazine, to hit the streets on June 16. With the help of leading Australian stylist Trevor Stones, she is breathtaking in a red Scanlon and Theodore dress and gold Louis Vuitton shoes. The exclusive series was shot by renowned Australian photographer Roger Deckker. Judging by the photos, it won't be long before the fellas in Hollywood start saying that her co-stars are the lucky ones. |

replied on: 7/1/2004 1:34:19 AM The Age (18/6/04) The Insider is yet another sophisticated, glossy spanker for looking, reading and thinking, whose first edition went on sale for $9.95 this week. Its blurb promises "Australian culture with a twist of influence, inspiration, shock and defiance" and it delivers a little in articles and media-art on subjects ranging from pornography-cum-cinema, the rise and rise of gossip culture, Jet, and Anthony Mundine. But this Volume One taster is disappointingly tilted - as so many "serious" magazines tend to be - toward articles about men who do, and women who look great. Two shortish pieces that say not much about actresses Abby Cornish and Rose Byrne - ie: "...Up close, Rose Byrne is cuter than your best friend's little sister..." (Wha'?) - don't restore the balance. A blind-freddy press-release-perfect piece on Melbourne label Scanlan & Theodore's success and collaboration with noted photographers during the past several years also appears to be its only nod to promised coverage of fashion, but The Insider is nonetheless a tantalising promise that just needs to be kept, dammit. I'll give it a burl. http://theage.com.au/articles/2004/06/17/1087245042564.html |
