Protege Season 2: The Battle For The Big Artista Break

It's season 2 of Protege. Season 1 looked for singing talents. This time, an artist who can act, sing, and dance. Protege 2 seems to replace the Starstruck series which had the same purpose.

Who deserves to win the 12-million peso prize?


Higit sa lahat, ang may karapatang manalo ay yung kayang tumabo sa takilya at humataw sa TV ratings. Hindi sapat ang ganda ng mukha, kailangang may angking kahusayan sa pagganap sa pelikula o telebisyon. Bagama't malaking tulong, pangalawa lamang ang kahusayan sa pag-awit o pag-sayaw. Sa kabilang banda, dahil lahat sila'y baguhan, hindi sapat ang kahusayan lamang. Kailangan ay may angking ningning at ganda na siyang pang-akit sa madla. Ang tao ay tumutugon at unang naaakit sa kanyang nakikita. Pangalawa, ang tao ay sunod na naaakit sa damdamin ng kanyang nakikita. Kaya naman sa larangan ng pangangalakal, upang maka-akit ka ng mamimili, ang isang visual artist ay gumagamit ng sikolohiyang panglarawan at emosyonal (visual-emotional psychology) na kung saan nilalaro niya ang tugon ng mata at damdamin.

Sa ibang punto, ang Protege ay isa ring pamumuhunan. Kung ika'y susugal sa isang produkto o proyekto, kailangang mabawi mo ang iyong pinuhunan. 

Kaya't bukod sa ganda ng mukha at kahusayan sa sining bilang panuntunan sa pagpili ng magwawagi, kailangang isa-alang-alang din ang kalamangan o potensyal sa pagtabo sa takilya at pag-angat sa TV ratings kung sakali siya ay bigyan ng pelikula o palabas sa telebisyon.

Halimbawa na lang sa Starstruck na kung saan nanalo si Jennylyn Mercado. Tila nahigitan na ni Kristine Reyes si Jennylyn kung kasikatan ang pag-uusapan. Kung inyong natatandaan, si Kristine ang unang natanggal sa Starstruck.

Hating Kapatid: GMA Network's Short Film For Christmas

"Hating Kapatid" is a touching short film about two brothers who share the same pair of shoes and socks when going to school. One attends classes in the morning; the other in the afternoon. They meet in one store owned by an old woman where they exchange their footwear.

Endless Love - A Filipino Adaptation of Autumn in My Heart

Courtesy pinoyhalo.com "Autumn in My Heart" is a Korean TV series. When GMA Network aired it on Philippine TV, it started a trend. Pinoys went gaga over Koreanovelas. GMA renamed the characters as Jenny, Johnny, and Andrew. The three Korean stars became popular in their character names rather than in their Korean screen names. GMA7 also gave it a new title - "Endless Love" - for the reason that there's no autumn in the Philippines. Today premieres once again Autumn in my Heart aka Endless Love but this time as a Filipino adaptation starring Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes, and Dennis Trillo. Three superstars in one show! It's surely a hit. If I were to rewrite some scenes in Autumn In My Heart In general, I enjoyed the pilot episode of Autumn In My Heart. I particularly like the scene where young Johnny and Jenny ride their bicycles on a long brick road fenced with bougainvilla bushes. I give praise to whoever found that place. The school location w

"Mahal Kita"

Here's another favorite song. "Mahal Kita", which means "I love you" was composed by Danny Tan. The original version was sung by Gerald Santos, Pinoy Pop Superstar grand champion of 2006. The female version was sung by Maricris Garcia, Pinoy Pop Superstar grand champion of 2007. The song is included in Gerald's first album "A Day on the Rainbow". The song is currently the love theme song of "Marimar", a Philippine remake of the Mexican tele-novela with the same title. In the Philippine version, Marian Rivera plays Marimar; Dingdong Dantes plays the the role of Sergio Santibanez. In Marimar, the female version is a response to the male version of the song. In dramatic scenes that focus on either Marimar's (Marian) or Sergio's (Dingdong) emotions, you'll either hear Gerald's or Maricris's version. "Marimar" is currently showing weeknights on GMA Channel 7. Here's Gerald's version of "Mahal Kita&q
