My Letter to 2012

Dear 2012,

               This has been a very eventful year for us. This was the very first year that I blogged full time, this website was my entry level position job and my resume. They say if you truly believe in something then you have to be willing to dedicate yourself to it entirely and that's exactly what I did... and it surely did pay off. So many lessons learned and connections made. 2012 will definitely go down as the year that I created my foundation for what's to come.  And of course none of us in the tri-state area will ever forget that serving of humble pie that was served to us by Hurricane Sandy.

2012 was a year full of firsts here at TerryMcfly.com... Back in January 2012, the first partnership with General Motors began. I took my first trip to Los Angeles this year, which was also the completion of a childhood dream to visit the E3 expo. I got my first brand endorsement in 2012 (to be announced). I became an accredited media source in 2012. Attended Knicks Media Day for the first time in 2012. Made a cameo appearance on Vh1 2 or 3 times in 2012. The list just goes on and on.... and what's even more exciting is that a lot of the deals made in 2012 will carry over into 2013.

These past weeks I've received some very exciting news in regards to my future as a blogger. I don't really want to write too much while the ink is still wet but I will encourage all of you to continue following me on this journey...I promise you won't regret it. I've been meeting with a few insiders, designers, and celebrities to help me bring these dreams to the forefront.

2013 is MY year, I am claiming it! It's been a good one, thanks for the memories!

Farewell 2012. See you soon 2013!

-Terry

Behind The Scenes: TerryMcFly x Cadillac Photoshoot

These past few weeks I've put my blogging on hold for a few days to prepare and focus on a few projects. One of those highly anticipated projects was my DC area photoshoot featuring the 2013 Cadillac XTS. To ensure that this photoshoot was the best it could be, I formed a super team of creatives. This super team included ZSG Photography (zsgphoto.com), Stylist Marci Rodgers (styleproper.com), Make Up Artist Tiffany Fields (blushenbeauty.com), Model Alissa Bourne, and yours truly. My wardrobe was provided by Young Whales (youngwhalesbrand.com), it's from their latest collection which isn't available in stores yet. Alissa's wardrobe was provided by the D.Piper Twins (dpipertwins.com), it's from their Kastle Designs collection which can be purchased on their website.

We completed the photoshoot this weekend, as many of you following me on twitter or on facebook may already know. It was very cold but we had a blast and the results are phenomenal  While we prepare to unveil the final product, I want to share some of the behind the scenes photos with all of you.

Never had make-up done before so this was all new to me.

RECAP: WIRED Store Opening Night Party

Last night, WIRED magazine celebrated the grand opening of their annual holiday store in New York City. This particular event was invite only, open only to industry insiders and a few celebrity guests. QuestLove of the Roots was the special guest DJ, he had the venue rockin out for hours with every genre of music imaginable. The WIRED store was filled with tons of interactive gadgets that can't be seen anywhere else. Many of those cool items wont be shown here because I was too busy having an AMAZING time. I didn't get pics of everything but I did manage to get a few that are worthwhile, so check em out!

Say What? I can't hear you because Questlove has the speakers knockin!

Movie Review: The Silver Linings Playbook

This weekend I decided to see  a film that wasn't on my radar at all, "The Silver Linings Playbook". I knew absolutely nothing about this film, never even seen a trailer for it. I was told that it was a chick flick but it was actually much more deeper than that analysis. The Silver Linings Playbook is an everyone flick, it manages to balance just the right amount of humor and seriousness to please a variety of movie goers. The film has a nice all-star cast which includes Bradley Cooper, Robert Denero, Chris Tucker, & Jennifer Lawrence.
