"Bhoy Intsik" for Sinag Maynila 2017

Just got off the presscon for "BHOY INTSIK" starred by Raymond Francisco, the official entry of Frontrow Entertainment to the Sinag Maynila 2017. He says "I didn't know at first that there are people living in cemeteries, the parallelism of how these things happen in real life is insurmountable. I play a gay character, dresses up to fool people, but I have a soft heart. I worked with Direk Joey in the past and when I got word that I was going to do the lead role, I was nervous, but Direk was precise and we attacked this role differently. I play different roles really, it's my first lead role and my BIGGEST break. To a point this is gay empowerment, I really don't like gay roles where they get ridiculed, kicked, and this is good."

Also included in this film is Ronwaldo Martin, Coco Martin's brother. He's done several indie films already including Cinemalaya entries like "Pamilya Ordinaryo" and his supportive brother has nothing but good words for him. He's playing Marlon, a not so good guy who also happens to be a con man. He lives with "Boy Intsik" and gets into conflicts with him in this project. He wants to later on be paired with Anne Curtis and also get to where Coco Martin is today. He's got a very good disposition, and I could see Coco Martin in him when he was younger. He's not single, unfortunately for you ladies, and he's had his non showbiz GF for a couple of years now. He says "I was hand picked by Direk Joey and being Marlon Pogi I hope the contrast comes through. I live in a bus, live everywhere and the character calls for something raw which was asked for me in the film. I'm excited to see this on screen! He's going to get booked, but wouldn't be romantically involved with a lady in this film."

Direk Joel Lamangan adds "The story is from real life, it's from a depressed area in Cavite. That person is already dead but when he was alive some of the things in this film was patterned with what he did in the past. I knew RS aka Raymond Francisco was fit for the film because I watched his previous stage plays. They were enemies before and they got to know each other later on. I knew they were all veteran actors, I challenged them to do it and they are good. Ronwaldo is super tight lipped but he does the job quite well and observes people so he could adapt to the role. We have full dimentional characters, and they did it with ease. They are the best assets of this film and they see the need for aesthetic quality, they are a very good addition to the industry. I hope people watch this in SM Cinemas, Gateway Mall and other theaters in Metro Manila! It's not done yet with the sub titling but we're sending this also to Hong Kong hopefully soon."

Sinag Maynila 2017 will run from March 9-14, 2017 in selected cinemas in Metro Manila.

Nash Aguas: BUM You Rule The Summer

His undeniable charm, good disposition and looks would make any teen girl fall to her knees. He's Nash Aguas and during the shoot, he was his old self. This was the time where their previous show Doble Kara ended and right now, they are preparing for a new one which they could not divulge yet. He also discusses what he wants to wear on a hot day, how to keep it simple and how to be cool during summer. Aside from that, I also added the BTS video which I made right after the shoot, so make sure you watch that as well.

Alexa Ilacad: BUM You Rule The Summer

I love seeing how much fun Miguel Tanfelix, Bianca Umali, Nash Aguas and Alexa Ilacad had during the shoot. They even ate together during breaks and I didn't see any network wars whatsoever, it was refreshing to see them also raw, just being friends, and felt comfortable in the clothes they wear. Apart from the thin fabrics, they were just being themselves.

Miguel Tanfelix and Bianca Umali: BUM You Rule The Summer

So I'm sure you've been waiting for this. I dropped by the BUM You Rule The Summer campaign photoshoot a couple of weeks ago to see Nash Aguas, Alexa Ilacad, Miguel Tanfelix and Bianca Umali. Street wear has been the brand's strength and there could never be a good fit for endorsers than these four. I spent a couple of minutes talking to them on video to ask about what favorite things they wore during this shoot. The collection is in different shades of gray, black and white. They also have some colors here and there but not so over the top designs because they want you to be comfortable with the shirts, it's summer and we don't want you to perspire more because of the material they use in this collection. So enjoy these photos first, then watch the video of Miguel Tanfelix and Bianca Umali at the end of this post. Trust me, you'll love these shots!
