SOUL MAFIA

Below is the logo I designed for the newest band to take centerstage in Cebu...the SoulMafia!





The only 'soul' band in Cebu perform Popa Chubby's all-time classic.




Desiree takes this classic from the Bee Gee's first ever album and makes it her own...

More Predators in our Midst...

Another fine weekend afternoon...armed with a Sony F707, I ran across these creatures looking for "fastfood meals"...







A Predator on the Prowl...

One weekend afternoon while I'm out "hunting" for a willing subject for my camera, I chanced upon this green fellow on the prowl for it's next victim. Shot with a Sony F707...radiance effect done in Adobe AfterEffects...colors tweaked in Photoshop.














Freaky looking dude eh...

"Kapiling Na" music video - Stagecrew

This project is my first independently produced Music Video here in Cebu. The shoot was done entirely inside Jon Unson's stylish "bodega-type" photo studio which I find really cool. Make-up provided by Romero Vergara. The guys & gals of Bickers Group also provided the much needed support and logistics works.

The "STARCHILD" project...

Below are posters i designed for an experimental indie film that I've conceptualized late last year. I'm still currently working on the synopsis and script. Hopefully, I will have time (and the resources) to be able to produce this film by 2007. In a nutshell, "StarChild" is about a teenage girl whose attempts to find information about her mysterious ancestry led her to discover something more than what she bargained for. An out-of-this-world information about her true bloodline...and the very purpose of her existence.

Another short indie film material in the works is "3AM" - a sci-fi/suspense thriller. I've already finished the synopsis for this one...and i'm looking forward to working on the script soon. "3AM" is a story that blurs the line between the philippine paranormal and the global phenomenon about visitors from another world...or another dimension.




















Standing in crop circles naked
Gazing at the stars
Cause there's a possibility,
there could be life on Mars
I hope they bring back Elvis
Cause how crazy would that be?
I know he's up there somewhere
Playing halo with ET

The truth the pentagon ignored
That Roswell kept behind closed doors
The lies that you've been reassured
It just can't be denied
If you open your mind

If the universe is a place that we call home
We're not alone
why should we believe that we're here on our own?
We're not alone
Is there anyone here without doubt in their mind?
Is there anyone too blind to open their eyes?
Realise...We're not alone, we're not alone

We've all been abducted
We get taken every day
They zap us with their red light
And our memory goes away

The truth is in our backyard
It's all buried in the ground
So beam me up like Scotty
Let me take a look around

We're not alone...
