SUPERMODELME // Season 3

Kevin Ou — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 07:38:14 +0000

Behind the Scenes for the filming of Season 3 of SUPERMODELME. Got to work with really fun co-hosts. The always-gorgeous Supermodel Lisa S. helmed the main seat while I got to judge with the fun-bunch of Cindy Bishop (Model/Host/Fashion Designer), Sharon Tan (Editor, Elle Magazine), Ase Wang (Actress/Model) and Dominic Lau (VJ/Host).

The season’s drama and photoshoots proved very exciting, for the models (as well as the photographers). Can’t wait for it to launch in 2012!!

An awesome thank you goes out to Karen Seah and Refinery Media to providing such a great experience.

Much Needed Break

Kevin Ou — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 07:01:38 +0000

2011 has been such an incredible year. Both in terms of business and personal growth. So many things happened this year that were worthy of reflection. Some new friends were made and you learn more about old friends. As one grows older, you learn that the differences human beings across the globe, aren’t so different.

Having had a great year, I decided to take a month and a half off to discover the world. To get lost after the beaten path ends and to explore the unknown. Here are some sights, smells and foods that made simply took my breath away. Come share my journey with me as I try to make it back alive after 50 days.

RASA SHANGRI-LA, Sentosa, Singapore

Here are some sample images of my adventures thus far.
Meanwhile, have a very Merry Christmas and a super-happy-awesome New Year!! - Kevin

The BigShot 2 – TV Show (Singapore)

Fortunate to be asked to be a part of a TV Show in Singapore. Definitely had a great time. After looking at the video, I should really learn to smile more

President of the United States x U.N

Kevin Ou — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 02:49:06 +0000

Was very fortunate to have crossed paths with the President of the United States in October. His writhing economnic agendas have definitely inspired me on the path of working with the United Nations. We’ve already made the initial steps and hopefully I can report more good news soon. Hopefully, I can utilize my understanding of new format capitalism to do good for the planet. Meanwhile, my sights remain on partnering with the U.N Global Compact. Let’s see if I can leverage some of this photography, corporate and celebrity contacts to making a difference.

End of the year promo – 2011

Kevin Ou — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 23:27:45 +0000

2011 has been such an amazing year for us. Between the start of working globally and transitioning across industries, we’ve definitely been blessed this year.

The team decided to end the year with a small promo to Movie Studios + Ad Agencies. The decision was to keep it light and candid, to make it more of a pleasant break than a hard-sell. So far the feedback has been awesome. Its a great way to meet new clients and make them friends. This is Part 1 of the campaign roll out. We’ll put more pictures up as we roll them out. For now, enjoy the Cinemagraphs that we created.

A very big THANK YOU to actor, David M. Beach. It was an honor working with you.

This stood out to me today….

Mid-Week Words of Wisdom

“You’ve got to find what you love” and other life lessons that have shaped my life.

Kevin Ou — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 17:43:42 +0000

The world is now set ablaze with tons of Steve Jobs commemorative postings now. So I won’t overdo that here. Simply taking a quick second to pay homage to a fellow human being’s words and examples that have helped shaped my life and career. Out of everything that is out there, I would like to share with everyone the one speech that has made a difference in my life. And hopefully today, it will make a difference in yours as well. Long live the wisdom of a man that helped shaped the future of this earth. Thank you for leading by example. – Kevin

“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.”

“Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It’s not about money. It’s about the people you have, how you’re led, and how much you get it.”

“It comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don’t get on the wrong track or try to do too much.”

“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.”

“Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.”

Amber Lounge x F1 Grand Prix

Kevin Ou — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 04:41:06 +0000

I haven’t had this much fun in ages! The Amber Lounge came to Singapore as the Official Party for the Formula One. If I had to party once a year, this place would be it.

A huge dream of mine came true when I crossed path with Sir Richard Branson. He was everything that I expected him to be. In an environment of over-dressers, it was refreshing to see him go against the grain in his T-shirt and Jeans. A true rebel!

Can’t put most of the images public but here are the ones that I can. It was fun hanging out with the F1 drivers and the Miss Universe girls. Definitely a trip to remember. Here’s to Amber Lounge 2012. Wonder how many other countries I can hit up! Who’s coming with me?
