Wow. The Indie Planet team went down to Greenville and had a great time. The event was broken down into several different gatherings and after parties throughout the weekend starting with a Meet and Greet at Club LaRoka on Pleasantburg and ending with a Niche Carolina Block Party on Sunday.
There was so much going on and so little sleep that it actually felt like a week. I can truly say I enjoyed every minute of it. The IPTV crew was energized by this trip and I think seeing their energy helped me gain a new focus and appreciation for the Indie Planet movement. When you're so deeply involved in a project, sometimes its hard to step outside the box and see the big picture.
Whenever I attend an event, I view it as work, meaning I have a reason for being there. It just so happens that it is WORK that I LOVE to do, so it normally turns out very productive.
I'm always working on new and more effective ways to network, do interviews, take photos, get drops, its almost down to a science.
The great thing about this event was that other members of the team were out in full force and if you know ANYTHING about the Indie Planet team/staff, you know we like to get out and meet people and have a great time.
I was really impressed by the way we (as a team) got out and stayed working, and continously promoted Indie Planet.
I'm always observing how other photographers and camera crews work an event, but when we're out in full force, its truly a sight to behold.
Our host,
GROOVE is truly the "life of the party" lol and
P.A.T. aka PG Konfidential had a separate camcorder and was all over the place meeting people. The footage that he gathered was very entertaining, he needs his OWN show (I would watch it lol)
Indie Planet definitely is on its way to developing a solid presence in South Carolina. We have at least 3 events coming up in the next two months and we'll definitely be in the building.
