For the V-Day

Posted by: Rhon  /  Category: Personal, Uncategorized

MY YOU,

Well I was watching television earlier when I figured everyone seemed to be so hooked up with planning for Valentines Day. Can’t seem to get the right gift for valentines day or perhaps how to celebrate it.

So wondered how do I want to celebrate Valentine’s Day? So I made a list if ever I should go out on the heart’s day (which I preferred to stay at home and do stuff). I already set my plans early this year that I am not go out of the house on the heart’s day. So I wont be stressing myself passing through so much crowd, coz I know its definitely going to have bunch of people on the streets, resto, parks, clubs, among others.

So what could be the best gift idea for me on the heart’s day? Read more…

We are up to make two films early this year, and both for National and eventually International screening and as always, I am very much excited every time I get to shoot another film. Its like a pill that makes me want to take again… (lol)

Anyway, it’s a go for films this year, best welcome home gift from friends and fellow filmmakers :)

First off: I will be shooting with my Micromedia Team this end of the month for ANC’s AMBISYON 2010.

It is a nation that lives by its stories: housewives living through the eight pm soap opera, teenagers who toss meager allowances on movie tickets, the audience that shakes its head over the daily news. AmBisyon is about the dreams of a nation, the vision of a future in the context of a country locked in poverty. It is about hope, possibility, truth—through the lenses of those who tell its stories.
