Fun at Moose Gear + Moose Girl Holiday PLAYCAMP

Walked right into a fun afternoon with kids and their families as they all participated in the Moose Gear + Moose Girl Holiday Play Camp at SM North The Block in Quezon City. It's an activity they designed for kids so they get a chance to learn how to model, dance and discover their talents even at an early age.

This is Moose Gear's way of cultivating the kids passion and fun after purchasing their high quality and fashionable Moose Gear and Moose Girl's apparel. They just released their holiday collection and this is a nice way to keep in touch with their market, the kids of course!

During the event, they had professional dancers teach the kids some really good dance moves, wherein after, they got them all on stage so they can dance in front of their families. I saw some proud parents taking photos and videos of their kids, they were even happier LOL!

They are also holding a search for the MG Holiday Endorser and all you have to do is post a photo of your kids wearing MG and answer why they should choose you to be their Holiday endorser. It will only be until November 5, they will get a chance to win MG lootbags and Kidzania passes (see Moose Gear on FB for more details).

Participants of the PLAYCAMP also got to meet Goin Bulilit kids Raikko Mateo,John Steven Guzman, Marc Santiago, Sophia Reola, Ashley Sarmiento, Chunsa Jung, Nhikzy Calma, Marco Masa, CX Navarro, Jana Agoncillo and Yesha Camille. They had two batches of kids in one day and it was really a fun and good experience for the kids who joined the workshop. If I were still in their age, I would have aced this. LOL

If you want to join too, follow their posts because information is all there!

8 Good Reasons Why You Should Watch TRES

Saw the movie TRES this evening at Rockwell’s Powerplant Mall in Makati. I was there to meet a special person because I’ve heard they were going around cinemas to personally say hi to people. It’s a good work ethic and a good place to get to know them offline. Anyway I have that on video, and I want to make you to support the movie like I do, so here I am giving you 8 good reasons why you should watch the movie TRES. 

1. It’s three movies in one. Three guys who have slight age differences can show you different views of the drug menace. 

2. If you miss Bong Revilla, his three kids would be good representatives. He would be proud to see his boys on screen.

3. Bryan Revilla exudes machismo. If you like men who looks and breathes like him, he’s your guy. His tight action scenes would make you feel a little claustrophobic, but you’ll love how it’ll end. 

4. Luigi Revillla is a millennial, he makes his action scenes easy because he’s got his martial arts background to take care of that.

5. Jolo Revilla is so close to Bong Revilla, you would ingest his scenes as if you’re watching his films in the past. Jolo moves like him, and if you’re fond of the cheesy romantic angles while in the middle of a shootout, that’s him.

6. They didn’t hold back on budget, they were shooting with real guns (blanks of course). They also got cars, mobile patrol vehicles and SUV’s explode. 

7. You won’t know who’s an enemy, or who’s the good guy. It happened several times, it’s a nice thing to have to twist the story. So you get a little bit of drama, a little bit of suspense.

8. It’s a mix of corruption, vices, lies, crime and a little fun. You’ll love the action scenes, you’ll love the ladies, you’ll love Bryan, Luigi and Jolo on screen.

Here's a bonus, a video for all my readers :)

Go head on to theaters today and get a does of action with the Revilla brothers. Make sure you tag along your friends and family so you can analyze and try to predict how it ends, I didn’t sleep because it had fun and interesting parts placed nicely throughout the film. Look for it while you watch in theaters nationwide. This is produced by IMUS Productions and distributed by Star Cinema’s Cine Screen.

Love Songs and Love Stories for Himig Handog 2018 Announced

Had the chance to listen to the top songs for Himig Handog 2018 this afternoon. Here they are in no particular order.

"Dalawang Pagibig Niya" by Bernard S. Reforsado interpreted by Sheena Belarmino, Krystal Brimmer and MNL48. It felt young, very KPOP-ish and easy to sing along.

"Hati na Lang Tayo" sa Kanya by Joseph Santiago, interpreted by Eumee. This one is heartfelt, hurt, very emotional. Eumee also belts this out in the chorus, pretty good. The composer said the one asking attention was the legal wife.

"Kababata" is composed by John Michael "Kritiko" Edixon, interpreted by Kritiko himself ft Kyla. Again another hurtful song but more like a rap song.

Interpreted by Janine Berdin, this one is composed by Mhonver Lopez and Joanna Concepcion, it's entitled "Mas Mabuti Pa". You could see this is another slow ballad type song, using the voice of the TNT winner to their advantage. It could well be used for a teleseryes, it could pass like that. This is an old song but the composer asked another composer if she could continue writing it (they are best friends) because it is on a woman's perspective.

Composer for this one is from Dubai, he's Robert William Peña. The song is called "Para Sa Tabi" and is interpreted by BoybandPH. It's very pop, boyband-ish and the lyrics are fun. I get a little annoyed about the sound of the chorus though.

JM De Guzman interpreted this one, it's called "Sa Mga Bituin Na Lang Ibubulong". It is composed by Kyle Raphael Borbon. JM sounds like a boy who would sing a heartfelt love song for someone he adores. It's so cool to listen to, it could pass as a song for spas and massage centers, make you feel good and sleep in that little corner your boyfriend has under his arms.

"Sugarol" is composed by Jan Aldrile Sabili and is interpreted by Maris Racal. It felt like something you would listen to while you're flying over several mountain ranges while you are looking for the love of your life. It's like she's trying to find that one true love. The composer says this is about her personal experience, she says she was in the state of falling in love but she was hesitant. Maris says "When I heard this I loved the lyrics, I do this too so it is a really good opportunity to get to sing this song because a lot of people would be able to relate to it."

I think this is the first time Jona is interpreting a song (not), it's called "Tinapos Ko Na" which is composed by Sarah Jane Gandia. Again it is very emotional, thinking of a relationship if it is true or not, and being afraid to fall, but still hopeful. Quite nice because she has runs. She says "I guess the way I sing is because of the inspirations I got from my idols Regine and Jaya. The song has a line and lyric that has reminded me of relationships, a very challenging material because it's got less vocal acrobatics. I get really challenged with restrained songs."

The next one is called "Wakasan" composed by Philip Arvin Jarilla and performed by band Agsunta. This song is about hopeful love, about waiting forever and not even caring how long that takes lol. It sounds a little bit like country. Things that Garth Brooks would sing, but in a very band setting. The composer says this song is from that old Filipino comic called Wakasan, but it is an open ended song.

Sam Mangubat interprets this next one called "Wala Kang Alam" which is composed by Mel Magno and Martin John Arellano. It's a slow hurtful ballad, about lost love and setting them free. It also felt like it is full of regrets, and the other person clueless about how much you've hurt. The composer said it was his way to get back with his ex's, about men, relationships and the hurt he's felt. It's his real life experience. He doesn't move on from pain as an artist and he pulls emotions from that. He's gay but it also applies to heterosexual relationships.

Jonathan Manalo says "These songs are based on real life, stories that are relateable and put into a song. These are the next ones in radio, film or TV."

Roxy Liquigan adds "We had 5000 songs to listen to and had to cut it down several times until we reached 10. If you ask us how true this is we had one song that was sung initially by 10 year old kids, we had the interpreters chosen by us, all for those who would be on top of mind so we got teens to do it too. We focused a lot on the appropriate artists, we got what we wished for and this year you'll see an even bigger, current showcase of songs. We know these will be BIG hits!"

Who will you be choosing? Which is the best one?

Derrick Monasterio and Sanya Lopez Heats Up The Screen in Wild and Free

Sanya Lopez and Derrick Monasterio for Wild and Free

This one is interesting. You know Derrick Monasterio right? How about Sanya Lopez? Well, they will be in a movie produced by Regal Entertainment Inc. and it’s not going to be just another romcom or chick flick. This is going to be bold, feisty, a little over the edge because these two sexy individuals are going to give their all. This movie is called WILD and FREE.

Their trailer has been released a few weeks ago, and true enough, it’s a but controversial. This will be a more matured topic, showcasing daring scenes from two GMA artists. Sanya says “I was nervous, but I was open to things that would happen in our scenes and kept it classy still. We know that as lovers, things will be intimate, we actually got a little rough but Derrick is a gentleman, I didn’t feel violated or taken advantage of. We have worked with each other before and it was a good foundation to work professionally. I had to brush my teeth a lot because of what’s asked for. I consider the things they say online as a complement. It was challenging of course but our director was there to help us understand our roles, I even asked my friends about it and good thing we can learn about it. Direk told me to say whenever we felt uncomfortable, about touching, but Derrick was good to also ask me about scenes before we did it so it was a good take.”

There will be intense scenes, you can expect that

I have seen Derrick do teen roles, this is a step up and he says “I wouldn’t want to get slapped so we took it easy, we tried to envision and do what we had to in the scene, I tried to make her comfortable because we have limitations. This is my first love scene and it is out of this world, the secret is mouthwash. I am sure there are a lot of guys who fantasise about Sanya during her Danaya days but we are happy that we are given a chance to do this with a big production like Regal. We had workshops, we had to watch movies related to it and learn to kiss passionately. (Mother Lily interjects saying “He is a baby, we started with him very young.”) I do have to admit, I also did a lot of wild things like doing it on a stop light. It was uncomfortable but did it anyway. We had similar scenes but had to do it in a smaller vehicle.”

Here’s our video from the presscon, enjoy!

As you may have heard it took them around 6 long love scenes to make this movie, Sanya laments how she felt something from Derrick but they say there is a secret. That’s what is going to revealed in the movie. Who will be the loser in this relationship? Why are they doing this?

Watch WILD AND FREE on October 10 in cinemas nationwide! You may follow Regal Films social media channels for updates about the movie.
