Jason Martinez - Starr Tincup Marketing

MEET

JASON MARTINEZ




How do you contribute to Starr Tincup excellence?

I bring forth my small toy collection of bobbleheads inspired by TV excellence! When I am not in awe of them I work on maintaining balance in the force that is Starr Tincup.

What were you doing before you came to work at ST?

I feel I wasn't truly living my life.

Why do you like working at ST?

Snacks. Its all about the snacks in the kitchen! If you come by our office make sure you ask for some!

Who would win in a fight William or Bret?

The answer lies in who has the more awesome cape! Its all about the cape.

If ST were a reality show which one would it be?

I can tell you with the snacks its definitely not The Biggest Loser!

What's the most unusual thing you have ever tossed off the fire escape?

Nothing yet... but I will say I am pretty excited to see we even have a fire escape. Mostly because they are neat but partially because I started a bad fire once as a result of playing with matches at the age of 9... and I want to make sure my coworkers can get out if those needs resurface.

Where did you grow up?

Chicago for a bit... then to Arlington, Texas and then to West Hollywood, CA and now back to good ol' Arlington!

What's your favorite all-time pet?

I want to say my Tamagotchi because those in theory were cool but I put mine in a glass of water when it wouldn't stop chirping at me because it needed loving. So now just my dog.

What is your most heart-wrenching / best breakup?

LOL. This one is Not Safe For Work! But then again is anything safe for work here at Starr Tincup?

What song changed your life?

Meaty Cheesy Boys-Ultimate Cheeseburger. When they did the new Jack in the Box commercials I couldn't resist the power of the drive through and had at least 3 double cheeseburgers a day... that my friend changed my life.

What is your favorite movie and why?

Chasing Amy. Kevin Smith is a genius. That is why.

What's your life philosophy?

I don't know if I have one at the moment. Lately I haven't really felt I have a life. But I am going to try and change that here and now... so with that my new life philosophy is: Carp Diem, Seize the Fish!

Who is your role model?

After the Tiger Woods fiasco I am choosing to not claim a role model for 2010.

What is the stupidest thing you did in school?

I dated this chick in a gang who wasn't the prettiest girl around. I did this purely to get her and her friends off my back. I broke up with her at the school lock-in towards the end of the year....... I spent the last 2 days of school running home.

What is your favorite marketing cliche?

Online Entertainment... gotta love webisodes, storylines, series, and animated shorts that integrate with your favorite products and TV shows!

Tell us your best celebrity encounter story

I saw Dina Meyer (Birds of Prey, Saw, 90210, Starship Troopers) at the Abbey in West Hollywood and introduced myself and began to tell her how much I loved her work in which I praised her role as Batgirl in Birds of Prey and she responded "Wow I didn't think anyone watched that!" and I proceeded to pull out my iPod and show her I had the entire season at my command. Things got quiet and I walked away in shame.

Fill in the blank... If I were a ____ I would _____.

If I were a goldfish I would have the worst luck and get flushed.
