I remember when I was kid that I glued in front of TV all the time. There were so many happy moments. I don’t think most kids now enjoy much TV more than their facebook status now. I guess it’s not entirely their faults. I don’t watch TV anymore as much as I like to.
Most of today’s TV programs, in my humble opinion, are complete rubbish. They are definitely lack of thoughts, too commercial and too direct. Reality TV is one of what I am referring to. They’re like ‘I create anything that has audience even though the materials are complete crap’. That’s exactly how I feel. They think about getting revenue at the most important priority, just for entertainment. I miss my Macgyver
I guess now you can refer to your profession as wedding professionals. Getting booked is sometimes the only reason you are working as the wedding professional. Like some says ‘wedding is where the money is’. I guess the quote ‘Be a trendsetter, not a follower’ becomes popular nowadays to remind people like them. Well, I’ll be very naive if I said that I don’t need booking, because I do. That’s how my family survives. Trust me, I am not so original because most of my works are the results of inspirations from somewhere. But I definitely shoot for myself, not for clients. By doing so, I am happy and of course my clients are happy. I know wsp never about me, but it’s my dream to have wsp to breed the better me. I hope all of you get my drift that if we start shooting to get clients only or to get booked, then it will be just similar concept of reality TV that’s lack of the word ‘classic’ or ‘timeless’.
Anyway, topics of creativity may need a different post in the future. I am not sure whether you guys have watched the below clip from ‘Korean got talent’. If you haven’t, please watch it so you know what I am talking about.
For me, This is what the reality TV at its best. That’s what reality TV wins over the traditional TV programs.
A lot of people ask me the direction or vision of where WSP wants to go. Here is my answer below:
I name wsp with ‘s’ stands for ‘school’ with reasons.
I believe everyone must have some process to succeed (that’s what school should give their students the process), like this korean dude. Obviously he learnt a lot from his difficult and good times from the process, that’s why he could finally realise that he had the talent. And ‘Korean got talent’ or any other of reality TV programs provide the bridge for the world to see this inspiring world. It’s the same story like Susan Boyle and so on.
That’s what I want to build wsp for. We want to achieve what reality TV achieve for wedding professionals. wsp provides a media for others to go through such process to unleash the hidden talent to become better artists and professionals and of course give the opportunity to shine too to the world.We want to achieve what reality TV achieve for wedding professionals.
I guess now your big questions are ‘how?’. Well, we are working on it, stay tuned!. But if you have some idea, let’s not be hesitate to msg me (wiki@wikilee.com) because the more idea may be the better it is.
That’s my vision of wsp – ‘Learn, Inspire, Creative”.
