Our film is entitled: “File no. 777”, it is a short film that plays with conspiracy theories, urban legends and events in Philippine history that tells a story of an intern in the Department of Foreign Affairs who becomes the catalyst for the revelation of the biggest cover-up in Philippine history.

The film re-imagines the urban legend on the alleged events after the supposed death of the Philippines’ premiere dictator in 1989 leaving audiences with one question in mind, what if President Ferdinand Marcos is indeed alive. This explains the idea of having the title “File no. 777”.

Please do watch and support our short film. The Pelikuletran Week will be on February 23-26, 2010 and the ticket will cost P25.00 only. Please contact Fiona Maranan at 09159434227 for ticket reservations. We would be grateful if you help us in this endeavour.

I was browsing the net (youtube) and I bumped into this video commercial, a vacation rental ad. I like the video; it is humorous and very persuasive.

You better watch & review this Funny Vacation Rental Video and see it for yourself. With the special participation of Unitard the slow moving super hero!

I don’t have any idea about vacation rentals until I watched the commercial. It simply explains that instead of renting a hotel during vacation, why not try this vacation rental. The thought is to rent a house, villa, mansion or condo anywhere in the world for half the price of a hotel. Cool isn’t it?

This kind of vacation rentals helps us to save money and vacations by having one rental at a time. This quality vacation rental homes are available in Florida, California, Hawaii, Europe and other great destinations. How I wish there are this kind of opportunity here in the Philippines so that we can also save money so as we enjoy our vacation trip

From Blue Clip Films we present to you File no. 777.

I had fun doing this film of course together with my production mate namely: Roland Corpus, Isaiah Bruce, Renz Barairo, Mark Villanueva, Peter Mendoza, Cheena Salas, Kathrice Paredes, Kaye Talabox, Jonah Cruz, Kathleen Aguilan and Caroline Ildefonso.

According to Kath it was a suicidal Sunday for all of us. We tried our best to have a 1-day shoot for our film. It was a 27-hours straight production of File no. 777.  :)

Thanks to all people behind our Films to Ate Lang (for the make up and *), for 1st Call Grip for the equipments, to all locations na hindi nagpabayad sa amin and of course sa lahat ng talents namin na naging matiyaga sa shooting. It was indeed a tiring moment for all of us, di nga ako nakapasok kanina but it feels so good na one down na kami.

First draft editing on Thursday with Olan, Apol, Cai and Renz Good luck to us guys! I’m so excited with the final draft of our film

much L.O.V.E ♥

Together with my good friend Keith, I decided to watch Paano na Kaya.

As most people would say, the best person to fall in love with is your best friend.

Mae Chua (Kim Chiu) and Bogs Marasigan (Gerard Anderson) have been best friends for too long. Mae fell in love with him but Bogs has a girl friend Anna (Melissa Ricks). After Bogs breaks up with long time girlfriend, Mae has done nothing but be there for Bogs, even putting Bogs’ needs before hers. Mae unintentionally professes her love for him. Bogs was shocked but later realized the things Mae did for him. They decided to find their way through their new found relationship. Everything was perfect until things get complicated when Anna comes back to try to fix things with Bogs.

Putting my self in Mae’s shoes, it was really hard to believe that Bogs really loves her after  seeing him kissing other girl especially if that girl is her ex-girl friend.

We may think that Mae was just a rebound and Bogs is still in love with his ex. The 3-month rule in One More Chance may not be applied here in the movie. It made me realized that the fact Bogs decided to make Mae her girl friend, he was indeed in love with her.

” Hindi dahil wala pang 3 months nung nagbreak sila at naging kayo rebound ka na”

Some may or may not agree to this but in my opinion guys may not be showy with what they really feels, there may be awkward feelings when their ex is around, they may act strange or get irritated when you talked or asked something about their ex, they may sometimes remember their ex or at least see some resemblance of their ex with your action but it does not mean you are being rebound.

The fact that a guy chooses you above his ex means he loves you.

Wala yan sa tagal… mas matagal man naging sila kung ikaw naman ang pinili niya, rejoice and be glad! Do not doubt, above all trust is very important.

Anyway, the movie was pretty good although if I will compare it with “one more chance” still “one more chance” is the best. The story was  cliché but I can say that they tried hard to give it a new approach that instead of focusing on the falling in love with your best friend idea, they focused it on whether Mae was just a rebound or not.

I was also impressed with the acting of Kim Chiu, she really improve a lot ♥

Oooops!! It’s not my relationship status !

It’s Complicated is a movie of my ever dear favorite actress Meryll Streep (OMG!).

Her acting in this movie is just sOooo amazing!

I feel so depressed after watching this movie It’s a sad ending! So much complicated about everything!

This movie is just an example that even though how much you love someone and how much that someone loved you back, there are instances that in the end it can never be the two of you.

Jane (Streep) is the mother of three grown kids, owns a thriving Santa Barbara bakery/restaurant and has–after a decade of divorce–an amicable relationship with her ex-husband, attorney Jake (Baldwin). But when Jane and Jake find themselves out of town for their son’s college graduation, things start to get complicated. An innocent meal together turns into the unimaginable–an affair. With Jake remarried to the much younger Agness (Lake Bell), Jane is now, of all things, the other woman.

Caught in the middle of their renewed romance is Adam (Martin), an architect hired to remodel Jane’s kitchen. Healing from a divorce of his own, Adam starts to fall for Jane, but soon realizes he’s become part of a love triangle.

Should Jane and Jake move on with their lives, or is love truly lovelier the second time around? It’s…complicated.

A must watch movie!

Now I will be talking about a movie of

Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner,

“Ghost of the Girlfriends Past”

The movie is somewhat related to Charles Dicken’s book “Christmas Carol”, it’s just that this movie focuses on falling in love. Isuper  love this movie ♥

Maybe because it conveys a message that all of us can be true and can fall in love for someone deeply. Despite who we are and how we were before. It also shows that if a person acts that he is bad he will be bad forever. There is a big chance (actually) that he will change especially for the one he really love.

It also made me realize that somewhere out there, there will be that one person who will understand and accept us for who we are. Despite all the wrong doings and mistakes, they will stay and be there for us along the way.

I can also relate to the part where Jennifer Garner almost gave up loving Matthew for she doesn’t know if he can be serious loving her. Why can I relate?? It’s because like Jenny, I am always looking someone (bad) or the “mayabang” guys out there and I want to be someone who will/can make them tame (haha is it the right word???) or at least make them realize that falling in love with someone is one of the best thing that a person could do!!! and like Jenny, I fail.. Ooops but it not yet finish.. at the end of the story Matthew, realizing that Jenny will be gone forever because of ignoring her feelings and for making her feel she was just nothing… Matthew, made his actions. He did win her back and change for the better!! Who could have thought that this very bad guy would turn into a very good one! LOVE IT!

So much inspiring! I hope all “bad guys” out there would be like Matthew

Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.

- Coco Chanel

Do you agree with that quotation?

Hear hear! I say. Fashion indeed is an inspiration for all of us. It influences the way we dress and we act. It is also a way to find ourselves in times we don’t actually know who we are.

I love fashion, obviously. I talked about it most of the time. I find it irresistible looking at different designer clothes. Given the chance I would love to create my own designs, my own work of art. The problem is that I don’t know how to draw that is why I admire those people who can sketch the designs they want, those who are able to express their character in terms of fashion.

I was actually “dreaming” of spending a week seeing a new fall fashion this 2010. How about Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York? Isn’t it amazing

Can someone make this dream come true? It would be a great great great graduation gift for me

The Fall 2010 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is in New York City from February 11-18. It is one of four major fashion weeks in the fashion industry and is widely recognized as the world’s premier fashion event. Being at the event is a big deal. Admission is by invitation only, to the fashion industry, fashion press, assorted celebrities, and internet based Fashion press.

It would be a great experience for me if I will attend such event. A dream come true for me. I will be able to see different designs, even though I do not know how to draw at least I will be able to see and meet people who are involve in the fashion industry  Come with me, join me, dream with me ♥

I was curious about the movie since it had no big promotions and PR, just talk of the mouth and many said it was a great movie.

At first, as we were watching we got confused on how the story goes because the movie skipped from one scene (day) to another. We should really focused on each day so that we can put it together for us to be able to understand the movie.

What I like about the movie are the lessons being convey. You can actually learn a lot from it while watching.

My favourite lesson in the story is when Tom (he was a greeting card message maker) realized that people like him is not supposed to composed messages for other people in order to express their feelings and thoughts. According to him, people should make their own way to show their emotions not by copying messages from other people they do not know.

Another one is when people fall in love they focused their attention to just one person. We tend to ignore other things around us, that is why when we got hurt it is hard for us to move on. Without knowing that sometimes those people who we ignore are the one who will love us back the way we do in the past. Maybe not all people believe in fate or destiny but sometimes it happens in the way that we do not expect it to happen

A remarkable movie for me… lessons learned… maybe it has part 2 since at the end of it Tom met another girl named Autumn. ♥
