Ignite 2010 Recap from Jason Poon on Vimeo.
Meeting celebrities is a strange thing. Some people are starstruck, some people want to get their in, and some people just don't care. It's been said many times, but they are just people. They are exceptional in their craft, but nonetheless, still just people. At the core they have the basic needs we all have.
One of my favorite r&b songs was Marques Houston's "That Girl". It's fun, up beat, and it feels good. I finally got to meet the man who recorded it. It was a cool looking set, but it was a not-so-cool experience. I mean I had fun shooting, but the boat got a little rocky and I got motion sickness. So did one of the girls. All in all I like the end product.
Who is Chris Brown? He seems like a fun/cool/chill guy, but he is definitely a superstar. He does what he wants, and he gets what he wants. I felt a similar experience when I met Kid Cudi. He was so cool when I experienced him through his music, interviews, and commentary, but there was an empty feeling when I finally meet him in person. I think disappointment is a good way to sum it. As much as their work affects your life, there really is not personal connection when it comes to the person. Strange yet sobering realization. On the film/video side of things, props to Director Collin Tilley for doing it big. Much respect.
