Best Birthday Party EVER.
The rest of PleasePlease will kill me for this but I have to post this. They made this video way before I joined them. It cheers me up every time I have a bad day! Hope it does the same for you. =)
Only Summer
My very good friend and co-PleasePlease girl Sab wanted to make a video for our friends' band letsgostreaking! They have a cute song called "Only Summer," prior to making it, we both hadn't been part of a shoot in a long time, so we were very eager. Sab had a lot of ideas for what she wanted for the look of the video -- aliens, dinosaurs, flying animals. She showed me pegs, and along our other friend Marco (who is in the band, and can draw), we painted the background panels for the video!
It took around four or five days to paint everything! I had absolutely no PD-in-the-real-world experience, so I dealt with things like the fact that our paint was enamel (I had no idea there was water-based construction paint hehe Oh how I love latex!), to having no help at all setting up and setting down for shots. Making this video was a learning experience, and I'm still proud of it until today. Thank you to Rog who carried a light for the whole shoot, and helped me "carry" the stars! =)
I also "styled" it, but I can't really take credit for the nice clothes that my friends own! Hehehe =)
I still have all the props you see -- the suns are in my props closet, the stars are with another PD I work with (I've used them in so many shoots since, and they've really done a good job dressing up settings like "Election party" or "Artsy cafe."), the magician's outfit is in my closet. I wasn't lazy yet, so I handmade and handpainted some things... It was a good time in my PD life. =)
This was still a PleasePlease production with Mia lighting and shooting it, and Reggie and Essa editing. Sab of course, directed.
We shot this on a Sunday afternoon-night in my garage, and until now the panels are there. =)

My First Entry!
Hello! I've decided to start blogging about my life in production since it's been a very exciting year and a half so far. For my first entry, I'll leave you with some pictures of my first production design job! Along with some of my very good friends, I made a music video for class. I'm still very proud of it until today. =)
PleasePlease Productions 2007! We shot it in Cosa Nostra, White Plains, Quezon City. All the furniture was from the location, and the flowers from us.
I'll post the video and talk about the shoot another time. =) *confetti!*
