THE PREVIEW

coming soon

As I write this, there are just bare three hours left from this Friday the 13th. I was hoping to make this post early this morning, but work prevented me from sitting at my desk for most of the day. So, here you go, although it's a bit delayed... our little way of celebrating this particular Friday.

Many thanks to all the people who contributed to EXHIBIT 13. It always surprises me how people interpret Alexandra; but me and Kajo were most specially surprised with the Nooninoo TRESE doll by Kitty and Bonsai. Once again, thank you all!

p.s. this weekend, TRESE: MURDER ON BALETE DRIVE will be made available at the TOYCON. Kajo will be there to sign and doodle on your copies. I will try my best to escape work and see you there as well.

I saw a copy at Dagupan NBS and I’ve browsed the web several times for it.

I’ve read Trese #7 online, I’ve read the Inquirer reviews, and I found out that the book keeps on getting a lot of positive feedbacks.

I’ve made up my mind. I’m buying a copy next pay day.

Hi Leviuqse,

Wow! You really want a TRESE doll?
Wonderful! (It was just made by my friends here at the office. So, it's one of a kind for the moment.)

You can contact Kitty and Bonsai at:

Thanks!

Hey, Budjette. I just picked up Trese last Saturday. I'll tell you what I think when I finish dissecting the whole thing. Heheh..

I'm thinking about posting a review or something, too but would you still need one? You'd have tons of praises for this work already! Hahah..

Anyways, loved the eerie feel of your book.

hi budjette,

sana you can sign my trese too... if you'll drop by in Bacolod, let me know. heheheh... it's quite frustrating if you're in the provinces and you can't do anything unlike you guys who are just around the metro.

anyways, great series.... i hope Trese will go out of Manila and investigate cases in provincial cities too... like car accidents along Baguio's Lloacan road, Siyokoy in Boracay, Cursed backpackers in Siquijor, Revenge in the canefields of Negros, or even in institutions like hospitals (i remember the time when i rotated at the Mental Hospital and our call room was where the burnt out cell was- the same cell where the locked patients burned to death after the one in-charge lost the key in the ensuing panic)...

cheers!

Will you Play it Safe in 2025?

One of my favorite songs which I learned about early this year. Our boss at the agency played this at one of our town hall meetings. It's reminder to all creators that we will always be told to "stick to safe ideas" (which is fine, if you just want to get the work done and go home) but there will always be this other voice at the back of your head that will ask, "Maybe there's another way to do this? Maybe there's a better way to tell this story? Maybe you can tell if from a different point of view and make this old story feel like new? Maybe you can spend a few more minutes working on it? How about it? Let's give it a try? Another hour trying to re-write? Let's give it a go!" What I love about this song is how the lyrics take on the conservative point-of-view and how the visuals show us the exact opposite. One of my favorite bits of this song is this part, where the lyrics starts to give you a "list of commands", like it's a list o...

the sons and daughters of Kanlaon

Last Friday, we attended the 40th Anniversary of KBS, the Kanlaon Broadcasting System, where my mom and dad once worked. I was still a baby when my dad worked there. I barely remember the people there. One of the first people to greet me was Lando, my dad's old driver. Him, I remember. As the story goes, when I was a baby, I could not pronounce his name and just started calling him "Agoong". Hence, he got that nickname and that's what everyone called him. I remember how we used to play chess while waiting for dad to finish work and how I always forced him to make me win. (Makes me wish I forced him to teach me how to play chess better and learn how to not win things so easily.) As expected, as my mom re-introduced me to her old office mates, they all looked surprised and delighted to see me. They would then immediately extend their hand, palm down, and show me how small I was when I first met them. Some would pretend to carry me and tell them they were the ones who ca...
Couple of weeks ago, Ms. Diyco featured another campaign made by the creatives here at Harrison Communications. Here's her review about the Neozep "Neozerye" TV campaign: Romancing the mighty colds cure ADS AND ENDS, Nanette A Franco-Diyco BUSINESS WORLD Vol. XX, No. 139, Friday-Saturday, February 9-10, 2007 http://www.bworldonline.com/Weekender020907/main.php?id=marketing_diyco The four television commercials that serialize the life of pretty housemaid Luwalhati, culminating in a storybook wedding to her once-upon-a-time señorito from the imposing mansion belong to an ad campaign awards class all its own. There have been other spoofs of soap operas selling other brand categories in the past. But for several reasons put together, the Neozep series of commercials that began with honest-to-goodness ad teasers that looked and sounded like teasers for true-blue soap operas proved ultra entertaining and more importantly, "reinforced Neozep’s leadership and further s...
