This photo is probably my favorite from the set 'cause Sir Garmsen said this photo is nice. Woot! :)

So here's the part two of the Pia + Pathways post. Hahaha! You can view the part one here. There are more sets to come so please bear with us. Haha! I really love how the photos came out! So dramatic and hippie and artsy... Ah, love it. This is probably my favorite set! (This photo shoot is a requirement for my Photography class. You can read the part one for more details. )

Here are the photos! Enjoy!! 

The pathway. This pathway actually leads to a beautiful place. We went there when we were really young and I can still remember the beauty of the place.  

Here comes the photos of Pia. Please carry on. Hahaha! :)

I'll upload the rest of the photos later. I'm just really busy/lazy right now. Hahah!

Oh by the way, if you want to post/use these photos somewhere else (which I doubt anyone would), it's okay, just link to this post/ blog and credit me. These photos are not yet copyrighted so you would not face any legal consequences if you ever steal these. But stealing is still stealing. Plagiarism is plagiarism. 

Thank you for viewing/reading the entire post!

It was during my crazy finals schedule when we did this 'photo shoot'. This is for my Photography class under Sir Garmsen. We were tasked to do a photo story. My first choice was Kids at School because I already took photos when I went to my Nanay's school for the photojournalism project. I stayed longer because I thought I was hitting two birds with one stone. I was wrong. When I submitted my proposal, my choices were Kids at School and A Girl in Different Pathways. The second choice is really just for the sake of a having a second choice. Sir Garmsen did not approve the first one because, according to him, that concept is already approved for someone else. </3 When he was discussing what I should do with my photo story, I was not really paying attention. In my mind I was like I totally do not have enough time to do a photo shoot!! 

But I did not have any other choice. 

So I immediately contacted this girl to be my model. Why? Because I know this girl's more than willing! Haha. So here are the photos for the first pathway. I am seriously an amateur. Do not hate! Hahaha! And my camera is just an entry level dSLR with crappy lens. Yup, the photos are grainy. I did not know I was on IS0 400 the whole time! :( I did not have enough sleep, this was during the crazy finals week. I'm not even exaggerating; it was really crazy. 

Still, enjoy the photos! We worked hard for this, I swear!!

Here's my nanay with her jogging outfit! She was with us the whole time! Thanks, Nanay.

According to Sir Garmsen this photo is okay na, kaso may mali. Can't you tell me what's wrong with this photo? Clue: May nakuhaan ako na hindi dapat.

I'll upload the rest of the photos later. I'm just really busy/lazy right now. Hahah!

I spent my free day with my Cinema 101 classmates and professor at Mowelfund located in Cubao, Quezon City. Movie Workers Welfare Foundation, Inc. (Mowelfund) is a non-profit social welfare that helps movie workers. Mowelfund is also home to Filipino movie collections like props, costumes, articles and the like. The Mowelfund museum tells the history of the film industry in the Philippines.

It is always refreshing to have an out-of-the-campus activity like this, so I was glad, despite our hectic schedule, that we went out of the room to discuss more about the Philippine film industry. 

We first went into the Fernando Poe Jr. mini museum where we discussed little about him, and about Mowelfund. According to our tour guide, Sir Alfie, Jospeh Estrada founded Mowelfund. He said, Mowelfund is like SSS, is just that Mowelfund is exclusively for movie workers. He also told us that a huge percentage of the earnings of the annual Metro Manila Film Festival goes to Mowelfund.

We also watched a short film that was produced by the workshoppers of Mowelfund. After the introduction,

when then proceeded in our tour.

Here our some of our pictures taken at Mowelfund. 

Thanks to Shanelle San Pedro and  Vaughnette Erika Salimbagat for the photos!

Me with friends

My favorite of all is the horror room! Here we are pretending to be scared and all...

Me and friends in the Walk of the Stars area. This is where standees of local artists are placed alongside the pathways.

This is Nino Mulach when he was young. So cute!

Sir Abbas having a discussion with some of my classmates.

Nora Aunor photos and awards

Me in one costumes room. What saddened me is that the costumes are bare; they were not protected by anything such as glass. You can touch them and do whatever. 

Ryzza Mae Chacha Dizon, so young and relatively new in the industry, already has a standee inside the museum. This girl is surely going places.

Me enjoying the light reflection in my shirt inside the horror room.

It was nice to walk through the history of Philippine film industry.  I really had fun with my classmates.

I hope the Philippine film industry will flourish once more. With the help of organization like Mowelfund, I hope preservation of films and things related to it will always be done.
