New Moon

I'm bored and I was looking for something to do. I saw the moon, round and bright. I took this just tonight... :D

At Eden Nature Park

I was so disappointed during our Jungle Safari Party last December 11. Why disappointed? Because when we went there a day before the party to decorate the place for the said event, they didn't allow us to light the torches that were supposed to be placed during the event. I understand that we have to secure a permit from the Bureau of Fire Protection but they should have informed us beforehand.

It was 9:30 p.m. already and the program ended. We were planning to at least enjoy the night through dancing. But dang! They informed us that we should vacate the place because a wedding planner have to decorate the place for their event 2 days after! They were not kind enough to let us enjoy the night considering that we occupied all of their rooms. I was already thinking to burn the place down..

The next morning me and Earl managed to take some shots. Though the management was not kind and considerable, at least the view was nice.

Mindanao Film Festival a SUCCESS!

Here's some PROOF that the Mindanao Film Festival was a success unlike what OTHERS have said. It was held at The Venue last December 21, 2008.



Trophies up for grabs for the filmmakers. Despite working without funds, we were able to come up with decent trophies and a reasonable cash prize for the Best Film. (My team received 7 of those back then.)

Film Convention in Davao

Oh my, it's been a while since my last post. But its good to at least post once in a while. Ive been busy with a lot of things. Anyways, I just want to invite you guys about a Film Convention that will be held here in Davao. If you want to attend, contact me or send an email to mindanaofilmconvention@gmail.com.

An Event Coming..

Hiya! No photo opportunity for me these days because I'm so busy but tomorrow would be a good opportunity for me. My officemates/friends Earl and Flordy will take their vows as a couple! I'm done doing their video as a gift and I'll ask them if I could share it to you guys. Will post pictures of the event also (will try because I'll be handling a videocam tomorrow) so watch out! :D

City Streaks

Another photo safari was set and held last Saturday. We went uuuuuuuuuup at the rooftop of LandCo Bldg. We placed our tripods and started to frame. It was supposed to be another sunset shoot, this time at the city, but Haring Sun didn't cooperate. So I opted to shoot streaks instead. Pano Style!

I wish next time I can shoot again.. another short film or even a full length..

Air Supplied

I was fortunate yesterday because I was able to watch the Air Supply Live in Davao for free! :D My brother was asked to be in charge of the video mixer so he invited me. Maybe he was thinking I wanted to watch the show. Here's some pics from the concert.







Bad trip lang because my battery wasn't able to finish the show. It's ok, I enjoyed the show after all.

Kokey's Park

One of the newest attraction here in davao is Peoples Park. It was a sports complex before where you can jog or play with your dog on the soccer field. Then the Local Government started to convert it into a park and asked a local artist sculp statues of Mandaya around that piece of land at the center of the city.





(I'll post more pics later!)

An Urban Challenge

The other day, my friend Kiko asked me “Coi, naa ka diri ugma”? (Coi, are you going to be here tomorrow?). “Uhuh, ngano?” (Yes. Why?) I replied. “Naa man gu’y urban challenge ugma. Basi gusto ka mag picture. Diri man gud ang isa ka challenge sa race.” (There will be an urban challenge tomorrow. I was thinking, maybe you want to take pictures. One of the challenges in the race will be held here. ). “Ah, ok. Sige lang, basi madala nako akong cam ugma”. (Oh yes, maybe I can bring my cam tomorrow).

The next morning, I was able to bring my camera after getting it from my bro’s office. It was 2:30 p.m. already when I was on the way to Kiko’s house. I was riding a jeepney. As we passed by Bankerohan Bridge, I saw a girl jogging as if she was going after something or someone. Suddenly, a sweaty man leaped from the side of the jeepney and I realized he’s a teammate of that girl. They’re the participants of the urban race.

As I enter the compound where Kiko’s place is located, I saw 3 flags formed in a straight line. I also saw Kiko, his wife’s son, Bams, and a couple of kids waiting for the participants to arrive. I also saw Smooch wearing a T-shirt of the said event. I wonder whats her participation in the event.. hmm.. By the way guys, I want you to meet Smooch…

… a 2 year old Great Dane. Here she is with Strawberry.

The task is that you will Walk with Smooch in a zigzag form passing through those flags. Easy isn’t it? You bet!

Now here are the participants doing the task..

I don't know what the guys are thinking here.. hehe.
Here's Puff (Left) and Sniff (Right). I think they're figuring out how can they get this cookie.

Do you need auto insurance?

Condemned

I've read a message posted by my friend Sheika on my friendster bulletin. Sometimes I get to join the production team of the show as a camera person. It's Muzika del Sur, a local TV show that promotes unity among Mindanao artists. I realized that if this was my experience.. I did the same thing.. Condemn Idol Grill!Now you will pay your debt!

The message goes:

YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING WHY THE HATRED?

IMAGINE IF THIS WILL HAPPEN TO YOU:

** YOU HAVE THIS EVENT THAT YOU PREPARED FOR ALMOST A MONTH PROMOTING AND DOING ALL THE STUFF JUST TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

YOU INVITED LOCAL ARTISTS FROM CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY ( GASULINA) AND TAGUM CITY(KEYK) TO PERFORM JUST TO PRESENT UNITY AMONG MINDANAO ARTISTS, NOT TO MENTION SOME LOCAL DAVAO BANDS WHO ALSO EAGERLY PARTICIPATED JUST TO SHOW SUPPORT ON THE VISION OF MUZIKA DEL SUR.

** MOST OF THE LOCAL ARTIST ORGANIZATONS FLOCKED DURING THE EVENT JUST TO SHOW SUPPORT ON THE DRIVE OF PROMOTING THE MUSIC SCENE OF MINDANAO.

**FRIENDS,FAMILIES,TRI-MEDIA WENT TO WITNESS THE FIRST PRE-EVENT ACTIVITY OF THE UPCOMING MUSIC AWARDS 2008. THEN HERE GOES OUR HERO!!!!

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PROGRAM OUR IDOL COMMAND HIS JUSTICE LEAGUE TO PULL OUT OUR EVENT BACK DROP STREAMER BECAUSE HIS IDOL LOGO WILL NOT BE SEEN(A.BY THE CAMERA, B.BY THE PEOPLE, C.BY HIS EMPLOYEES, D.BY HIS DRINKING BUDDIES, OR E. ALL OF THE ABOVE! ) . AND WHEN WE ASK HIS HIGHNESS TO JUST RECONSIDER OUR EVENT BECAUSE SOMEHOW WE PAID HIM TO HAVE OUR EVENT IN HIS KINGDOM... WHOOOOSHHHHHH!!!! OUR IDOL WITH ALL HIS MIGHT POINTED HIS MAGIC WAND TO HIS "CLOWNS" AND ORDERED ONCE AGAIN LADIES AND GENTLEMEN ...ONCE AGAIN WITH(DRUM ROLL PLEASE..) " I COMMAND YOU TO STOP YOUR EVENT! BY THE POWER OF MY MAGIC WAND MAGSITIGIL KAYOO MGA MAHADERA!! KEVERRR KUNG SINO PA YANG MGA MEDIA AT SPONSORS AT BISITA AT BANDANG NANDIYAN, WIZH KO EL! MAGDUSA KAYO MGA BRUHA! " SO WITH ALL THE SHAME AND DEGRADATION WE PACK OUR THINGS,OUR PRIDE,OURSELVES, AND OUR HATRED HOME.

WE SEEK OUR REFUGE TO DURIAN BAR(THANKS PAO).

AND THAT'S THE END OF THE FIRST CHAPTER.

ABANGAN ANG SUSUNOD NA KABANATA!!!!

We happened to visit one of the popular places here in Davao, we call it the SeaWall. They made a a park beside the shore. And near that park is this...
