Nothing to do this February 29th? Do you want to leap to SM Cebu Cinema 1 and watch the most-awaited film, “Confessional,” by Jerrold Tarog? (Tarog is a multi-awarded Philippine filmmaker from the same powerhouse talent that brought you Rhythm of the Unison, 1st Prize, 2007 Sinulog Video Documentary Competition, and other back-to-back Cinemanila / Cinemalaya awards).
Cebuasia is giving away two free tickets of Confessional (winner of 7 major awards at the Cinema One Originals 2007 Awards Night) starting today. Don’t tell us you forgot we have an extra day in February, this year…
Mechanics:
1. Comment any article posted by Cebuasia bloggers/authors since February 1, 2008.
2. I will choose two random comments left on any February post here in Cebuasia at 7:30 pm tomorrow, the 28th. Those lucky commenters will, of course, get the freebies! Very simple.
3. Applicable ONLY to either online bloggers / website owners / netizens with valid contact numbers, YM, or emails (you can, however, proxy yourself to your friends or loved ones here in Cebu if you happen to be the real website owner and may not be able to claim this physically from me) who have actively updated their blogs/sites for three months now. Must have a valid personal blog that you maintained since November 2007 (e.g., wordpress, blogger, livejournal, etc).
4. Since this is a Cebu City screening, the lucky winners should physically claim their tickets from me tomorrow, Thursday, starting 8PM onwards at Browncup Coffee Shop, St. Patrick Square, Redemptorist Church Area (St. Therese College - back gate).
5. Important: Please leave your valid contact cellphone numbers, YM or email in your comments. In the event that you cannot be reached or you fail to collect your tickets, which will expire just a few minutes before curtain time on Friday, February 29 at 9pm — with my discretion — I will dispose / hand these to the next lucky souls who might be loitering around SM Cebu Cinema 1!
I will announce the two winners here tomorrow, in the updates portion of this post.
CONFESSIONAL Synopsis:
Lies + Lies = Truth
RYAN PASTOR knows this by heart. As a small time filmmaker, he knows how sound and images can be manipulated to say anything. And he’s tired of the lies—the lies at work, in his relationships, the lies one must keep in society just to exist. On a whim, he decides to go to
What follows is a story of revelations and bitter truths, of buried secrets and sweet lies. CONFESSIONAL takes you to the heart of a criminal…or an honest man.

With the Rosas Pandan article, once again I have been reminded how proud I should be for being a Cebuano. Who would have thought them Americans would give themselves the time of day to learn a Cebuano song? Even the Koreans did a good job doing the Rosas Pandan. An evident twang to their pronunciation and intonation, but I could very well get what they were singing. You were right Clee when you said the article was going to be a show stopper. It sure made me stop and think. Perhaps I can find a way to get our little city noticed? If you figured CebuAsia, perhaps I can do more photos for and of Cebu? What better way to start photography than to take something (in this case a place - Cebu) you really love for a subject? Let me know what you think. Thanks for the Rosas Pandan article, that sure brightened up my day. Now I’m off to share this article to friends and colleagues. You should start thinking about a souvenir shirt for CebuAsia. You were wearing one during Sinulog, right? Perhaps a design contest be in order? Just imagine people walking the city and the world, wearing your shirt. Telling everyone of Cebu and the pride we have for our little city. Just a thought.

I think they did a flawless job singing our Pandan Rosas. And looked — how they managed to do it without a sweat. Haha! That should make us all the more proud. They are singing our folk songs! And it’s a shame if some of us wouldn’t even bother to continue listening to it, the moment it’s aired.
As for your photography in the city, I am reminded of how I started with a Mr. Clean-sized Kodak instamatic camera (circa 1980’s, stuffs you call vintage now); a baffling film roll, that looked like mini-binoculars — that I can barely buy even; and things were simple then. My then pastor father gave it to me and we equally shared it in the family like a sacred heirloom. I was 5 years old when I first released the shutters. (Time flies so dizzying fast!) That moment opened to me a whole new world of themes and memorabilias. I was the excited, new kid who slept all the way into the now of things. There were no CebuAsia’s back then.
I went off from that day shooting just about any sundry objects. But the Rizal Boulevard in Dumaguete City was a sight to behold everyday. I think, that was one disquieting reason why I should pursue this fine art.
I am bidding time with all these crazy hobbies. Sky’s the limit, they say, but I am still in Cebu. Who knows where I’d reach shooting my subjects next.
Here’s a handy tip: Always incline to shoot something which nobody even dared to try with an angle or settings and they, too, would exclaim, “I could have taken this myself!”
From photos to websites to shirts, there is no stopping now.
People are eyeing back at our bright-lit Cebu these days, always coming back to this website for more; and this is just my little contribution for them to admire this wee photography-friendly spot in their hearts.
My $0.02 worth, too. Good luck with your take offs, Mike!

Thanks a lot Clee. The novelty of getting something new to the table (in this case, a fresh new take on a subject) sounds like a very daunting feat. Im imagining years and years of stuff photographers have been thinking and taking photos of and I can barely think of a subject to start with. Nauseating. Its like ive just stepped through a portal into a new world and I cant even decide on what to explore first. Perhaps as I take these baby steps, I’ll explore as I go. Im thinking macro photography with great post processing, but I yet have to get a great macro lense. So I’ll see how this goes. After this weekend, Im sure ill have more time in my hands, so ill definitely get in touch with you. Time to get my D80 on its first serious photo stint. Anyhow, thanks for the encouragement and the inspiration. Looking at the great photos youve taken, its definitely making me want to explore photography some more. Thanks Clee. Btw, whens that coffee thing you photo guys are having? Let me know, perhaps I can make it. If you dont already have my number, ill YM it to you. Cheers!
