Acer Unleashes New acerpure Home - AioT Products

ACER's foray into home and aiot devices through child brand acerpure just had a showcase of their products at Glorietta 4 in Makati City.

Endorsed by the Pambansang Krungkrung ng Pilipinas and KPOP Sensation from 2ne1 Sandara Park, we had a glimpse of the new acerpure air purifier pro P2, acerpure Cozy F1, acerpure cordless vacuum, acerpure clean, acerpure cool C2, and a whole enchilada of home appliances that would make your home a bit more technologically advanced. 

 

It was fun because they had a few improv performers to entertain us first at the event. We also played a few games wherein we had to spot a few germ characters amidst a nice home set at the Glorietta activity center.

Stanley Kao the President of acerpure says "Thank you for coming, I've been to the Philippines 10x and I love bananacue, tuna, and the smile of the people. We are a new lifestyle brand from the Acer group and we want to bring that to the Philippines. During the pandemic we had our first air purifier products, and now we are in more than 16 countries and won design awards around the world. We are present in 8 countries in Asia and 8 in Europe. We are also the number one selling air purifier in Japan in Rakuten and Bic Camera stores. Our quality and products have been accepted there, and we are present in more stores in the land of the rising sun. We hope we have the same success in the Philippines just as much I have loved the country."

Carlo Rapisora of acerpure Philippines says "We are officially launching acerpure products in the country. We know Filipino homes, and leveling up with acerpure products is the way to go. We already have a lot of milestones with it in Japan, which means it is of top quality. With it, we want to engage with the Filipino market, and we know the growing demand for it, and that's what we want to capture."

Acerpure Cozy F1 and F2 has a modern design, very efficient air circulator. It's also energy efficient so you get less electrical expense for your home as it uses a DC motor. It's got an adjustable stand, very versatile and comes in a few colors.

The acerpure P2 classic is a 2 in 1 air circulator and air purifier. It does what it says as it circulates air and cleans it. So does the acerpure C2, and also has less energy consumption. Aside from that, they also have acerpure clean series with the acerpure V1 and V1 Lite which is a cordless vacuum cleaner. It cleans dustmites, takes care of all the dirt and can be used with different attachments to get into those difficult spaces. 

 

They plan to launch a few more products soon (like hot and cold water purifier called "acerpure aqua" slated next year) so stay tuned!

Japanese Film MONSTER Showing on Theaters October 11th

 

While Ms. Sylvia Sanchez, her kids Arjo, Ria and Ms. Lorna Tolentino was in Cannes Film Festival last May, they were showcasing the various projects of Nathan Studios and figured, they would also look at different films from other outfits in the festival. They were a little intrigued about MONSTER because they literally couldn't get a seat for it during those days as people really flocked to the cinemas when this was shown. MONSTER's Director and Editor Hirokazu Kore-eda is regarded as Japan's Lino Brocka, so when a masterpiece like this comes out, the need for people to see it is automatic. So they did the next best thing instead, the got the rights to show this film in the Philippines so we all could get to watch it.

The critically acclaimed film already won Best Screenplay and the coveted Queer Palm for Palme d'Or in France. The story is about a kid who suddenly changed behavior, and the mother tried to find the truth what transpired at school. Although this looks like a horror film on face value, this is more of a drama piece with lead stars Sakura Ando, Eira Nagayama, and Soya Kurokawa. Several stars attended the advanced screening at SM Megamall where this will be shown. Here's Ms. Sylvia Sanchez and Ms. Lorna Tolentino who will tell you more about how they became producers for this particular release in the Philippines: 

The film will be shown in cinemas October 11th, so make  sure you head on to theaters to see this masterpiece. See why it's been seen by countless people in the international film festival, and why they loved it! Again, this is under Nathan Studios Inc. and Ms. Lorna Tolentino.

PETA Plus and STAR MAGIC Stage TABING ILOG The Musical This November

Well loved ABSCBN series "Tabing Ilog" will once again reprise the musical version of their show at the PETA theater in Quezon City. This is different from the 2020 version of Teatro Kapamilya, so do expect an entire re-telling of the story by director Phil Noble. This is written by Eljay Deldoc and will have a different take on both the storyline and music that talks about relationships, love, friendship.

Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) Director Beng Santos-Cabangon says "It hasn't been a year when we worked with Star Magic doing Walang Aray, and now we are coming together to make sure artists are equipped with the best set of skills doing live at the PETA theater. It has been a continuing tradition, as it is a different time, but it's so nice to bring in a show in a coming of age series. I hope this brings forward how art and culture develops, this is a happy collaboration. Thanks for being here today!"

Direk Lauren Dyogi says "Maraming salamat to Direk Phil and Vincent to everyone who made this possible. This will be watched by more people, to hopefully talk about the issues of the new generation. We are excited to see Tabing Ilog the Musical on October!"

TIMMY CRUZ is BACK: Sharing Her Gift

Ever wondered what happened to the bubble gum pop,  iconic Timmy Cruz? It's been years since we've all last heard from her, with good reason. She took a long deserved vacation, a break from all the stress, to concentrate on healing, inner peace and deeper self care.

She was working on a series set in a hospital, where she got the idea to have herself checked. She did it quite regularly, but this time, it was different. Doctors brought news about her condition, here's her story:

While she was on her path to doing deeper self care, she practiced meditation and concentrated on their family business. While in one of her sessions, she shared her songs among those who attended it and people asked if songs she sang (during meditation sessions) was already out there. She said no but didn't know she was talking to someone from FlipMusic Records. Aside from that, her whole family was always egging her to go back to show business and singing. After getting healed, and years of waiting during the pandemic, she felt it was but right to share her gift to even more people. She also hoped that people learn something about her story, then decided to go back to the industry she loves. She needed a little help on the management side and sought the help of Artist Circle under Rams David.

Ms. Timmy says "The title of the song is ALL I WANT IS YOU. I wrote this song together with a couple of others I sang earlier. It is my first try in composing songs, as I couldn't call myself a real artist if I only interpret other people's songs. I felt something was lacking, so I asked the Lord to help me. During a teleserye shoot, I was with Ogie Alcasid, so I bluntly asked him to help me how to write songs. He just said.. you can do it! You just have to emote, then try several times. I took his advice and now have FlipMusic to release it on digital. Now I have over 28 on Spotify and other platforms. All I Want Is You is my 29th. I also came up to Jose Mari Chan, he didn't recognize me because I now have gray hair. I told him I'm following his footsteps of writing Christmas songs. He just told me to keep on composing. I always send it to him and ask about it. I learned a lot during this process, I really learned to listen."

She added "I am here to do good things. If it's not, then I'm not going to be part of that. When I had a long break, I didn't really use make up. That's a 7 year break from it sans the mascara that I use every once in a while. This is how I look like naturally, so I enjoy and accept it. I cut my hair so as to not use much energy. I'd rather have it be used by my body to heal. I used to always keep watch my hair color and even go to salons at night for continuity sake. It took me a year to get used to it."

And by any standards, her new look would probably land her roles. You could liken it to Miranda Priestly or put it down so she could portray a Mom (a little too young to be a Grandma) so imagine the things she can do now that she's back in showbiz. This is just the start, and if you're already feeling the Christmas season, you can pre order her single that's coming out on the 6th of December. We all heard it and it's like standards, think Michael Buble but her version. It's on all digital platforms, and yes, we could make it into a playlist for that special day.

I'm quite happy to see where she's going. I've got her performance on my TikTok account @kumagcow so head on there if you want to see more of Ms. Timmy Cruz. Thank you to her management Artist Circle for letting us interview Ms. Timmy. Hope to see her in new shows soon!
