Reposting: Zombie

It took a while before I finally decided to upload the final film in Facebook. I've had a few friends asking me to show them the film, but I just told them that I'd upload it soon. My hesitation stems from how personal this work is--not just because I'd literally shed tears in doing this project, but because it is a personal story. I was protective of it like any Hollywood movie stars protective of their newly-born babies from the paparazzi or the way Pia Magalona is to Francis M's last recordings.

Sino ba naman ang gugustuhing pulaan ang kanilang trabaho ng kung sinu-sino lang? No matter how bad it turned out to be, baby ko pa rin siya. I wouldn't just let anyone say anything bad against it. (Pero kung pangit man siya sa standards ko pa lang, hindi na ko magkakalakas pa ng loob na ipakita siya sa iba.)

Ayoko rin namang makatanggap ng sobra-sobrang papuri from people who feel obliged to do so just because we're related or we're friends. Hindi rin naman ako mapapanatag sa ganu'n. I want some objectivity and not biases.

If I sound too critical of what others might think about my film, it is because I am critical about it myself. I have wanted to do a film of my own, and I didn't want to screw it up kahit pa sabihing I have a huge margin of error since it's my first time.

Fortunately, when I showed the rough draft to my professor, nagustuhan na niya. When it was finally shown at mag.net Katipunan on March 25, 2010 and was judged by Auraeus Solito (of Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros), he liked it, saying that it could already be sent to gay and lesbian film festivals abroad. My professor added na mataas daw ang grades na nakuha ko.

Nakahinga na ako ng maluwag nang marinig ko 'yun. Sobrang pinaghirapan ko ito, and I'm very much proud of it!

Yet, at the back of my mind was the question, what now? What is the next step for me?

I don't know actually. But I'm hoping that this could be the start of something good!

Anyway, before you watch the film, here's a few guidelines Sabi nila, let the audience interpret the film for themselves. However, gusto ko pa rin ibigay ang mga bagay na ito dahil pelikula ko ito!

WARNING: Some scenes and theme may offend the sensibilities of some viewers. Watch it with caution (or not at all).

Synopsis:
Zombies walk amongst us. Tonight a zombie stares at his current flame as he reminisces happier days with his dead lover.

He dresses up in white with black linings in front of a broken mirror. After which he leaves the house and joins the land the living as other zombies often do.

* This is purely a visual medium, so everything you see on screen has a purpose.

* Lahat ng prop ay may sinasabi tungkol sa kuwento ng pelikula.

* Ang mga piniling kulay ay may dahilan. Maging ang texture ng kurtina at bed sheet ay may sinasabi. Maging ang suot ng karakter ay may kuwento.

* Ang basag na salamin ay hindi isang basag na salamin lamang. May kinalaman ito sa taong nakatingin dito.

* May palabas sa portable DVD player. Hindi nga lamang siya nakita masyado. But it is a BURIAL SCENE from the movie Nakapagapos na Puso.

* The scene with the DVDs, books, and cassette tape say a lot with what had transpired between the past and the present. Read the texts.

* Take note of the album ENDLESS LOVE by Diana Ross and Lionel Richie.

* May konting boo-boo sa bandang huli. Matapos pagtawanan, 'wag na pansinin. Wala na kong magagawa sa katangahan kong iyon. 'Yung nilalaman na lang ng eksena ang bigyang-pansin. Hehehe.

Ito rin ang isa sa naging puna ni Auraeus when he saw it. Other than that, OK sa kanya ang buong pelikula.

* There could be quite a few interpretations to the film's message. If you have your own, feel free to post a comment. I'd love to hear them.

* I am truly a Sharonian! Napakaraming Sharon references sa movie na ito. Hindi ko kinakahiya 'yon! :)

So, enjoy!

Shooting Zombie

Zombie: Behind the Scenes

This was written on March 26, 2010. I posted it online, but decided to keep it hidden later on. Now it's back online! I don't see the need to not post it. I made some notes, though, so I wouldn't forget some details.

"Jheck David is finally done with editing and sound design! Nakakaiyak..." was my status last night. Ivy asked why--'yung story raw ba o 'yung pag-e-edit.

Lahat-lahat ay nakakaiyak. I really didn't have an actual moment of break down during the production of my short film, Zombie, but I was almost in the brink of tears. I came to the point of asking whether tama ba ang path na pinu-pursue ko or I just need to stick with what I do best. (Pero ano nga ba ang bagay na I do best?) Was I just fooling myself into thinking na may mararating ako sa film or was I just doubting myself?

Story-wise, makailang ulit din ako nagpalit. I thought that I already have a story in mind the first time until ma-realized ko na hindi naman gaanong cooperative 'yung gusto kong maging part ng film. Ayoko namang mag-demand ng husto sa time niya since "tulong" lang naman talaga 'yung gagawin niya sa 'kin. (It was a story inspired by a colleague from Star Cinema. There was an emotional dance involved in it.)

I changed my storyline and felt that I was already set on my concept. Only that feeling ko na may kulang pa. Na kailangan ng tweaking. Hindi ko lang malaman kung sa'ng parte itu-tweak.

I had my zombie world set-up na, pero di pa maayos. Medyo sabog pa. Instead of too many zombie stories, I focused myself on one--on my lead. It worked for me. Maski sa production design (used as plot) ay nag-work din. Solb na ko!

Location. Hindi pumayag 'yung unang hinihingan ko ng pabor. Hindi niya man kinunsider at least for a while 'yung idea on using his place. Basta ayaw niya. I was quite upset about it, pero natanggap ko rin. Sabagay di naman ako ganu'ng ka-close sa kanya para isiping pagbibigyan niya ko. (He is a dancer who happens to know the guy who was the inspiration of the first SL I had which I mentioned earlier. That latter guy is a dancer, too.)

Anyway, I asked my best friend her place. She immediately agreed. Ewan ko ba kung bakit nagtanong muna ako sa iba kaysa sa kanya. Ayoko lang kasing i-hassle siya with the shoot o maobliga siyang pumayag dahil best friends kami. Pero bakit ka nga naman titingin sa malayo kung mayro'n namang mga taong nasa malapit at handang tumulong anytime?

The day before the shoot, wala akong makuhang actors! Ilang tao rin ang pinagtanungan ko at hiningan ng contacts, pero wala. With the "demands" of the story, mahirap makakuha ng artistang papayag with a minimal pay. Hindi ko naman pwede pang taasan ang talent fee dahil kapos na kapos din ako. Bukod pa ru'n, four minutes lang ang film. Hindi required na super galing umarte. Basta willing to show skin and do gay scenes. Muntik na nga akong mag-resort sa mga CBs, pero maging sila ay maaarte rin.

Nagtanong ako sa taong iniiwasan ko kung may kilala siyang pwedeng gumanap para sa film ko. (Hindi naman niya alam na iniiwasan ko siya actually.) Kasubuan na. Nagbakasakali ako. Ayun! Nakahanap siya. Ang laking pasasalamat ko sa kanya. If not for him, maaantala ako ng husto, and I was already pressed for time. (Iniwasan ko siya dahil may writing job ako sa kanya na hindi ko tinapos. As it turned out, hindi na rin pala siya nagtatrabaho sa producer namin na isa ring artista at direktor na may asawang aktres/host. May anak silang kambal.)

Shoot went well sa tulong din ng mga kaibigang tunay. Inabot man kami ng dilim sa labas ng bahay, keri na. Maganda rin naman lumabas sa camera 'yung night effect. Ang nagpatagal lang kasi sa 'min ay ang zombie make-up. Hindi ko in-expect na ganu'n siya kagatal ilagay. It took almost 2 hours to finish. Isang tao lang ito! Na-imagine ko na if I had a bunch of zombies, it will take us the whole day to put make-ups on them! Or, I need more than 2 make-up artists!

Editing. Sobrang kinatakutan ko siya. Hindi ako marunong. I only know how to use Windows Media Maker. Ang gusto ko sana ay fancier editing software. I thought of hiring an editor. Gusto kong maganda ang kalabasan ng film dahil kulang ang tiwala ko sa mga kuha ko. Editing ang sagot para magkaru'n ito ng style o mapaayos ang kuwento.

Pero panibagong gastos ang editor! Wala na kong budget for it. Claudine suggested that I should try editing the film myself. Iga-guide niya ako sa Adobe Premiere. I tried pero pakiramdam ko na I don't have much time learning Adobe. Kakainin nito masyado ang oras ko. I opted to use WMM kahit hindi masyadong stylized. Na-enjoy ko naman siya. Maganda ang kinalabasan. When I showed it to my professor, nagustuhan niya ang pagkaka-edit ko at ang kinalabasan ng film.

Scoring. Isa ito sa kinatakutan ko pa. Nu'ng una pinroblema ko ang music. Saan ako kukuha ng original music? Isa sa nahingan ko ng kanta ay isa sa mga naging estudyante ko sa Northfield. Grade 1 lang sila nu'n when I handled them. 3rd year high school na sila ngayon. Fortunately, di naman niya ko binigo. Binigyan niya ako ng 3 original compositions para sa film. Only that when my prof learned about it, sabi niya na di pwede ang music! It has to be sound design.

Shet!

Nakakaloka talaga. Lagi na lang may bump on the road whenever I thought that things are starting to go smoothly. Pa'no ako magde-design ng sound? I can't use much of my live sound since may mga instructions ako while we were filming. Wala rin naman akong editing sound software that could filter sound well.

Nag-search ako ng sound effects sa net at luckily, may mga nahanap naman ako na bagay sa film. Pero hayup! Hindi mailapat using WMM! Ni-reformat ko na nga ang PC ko para maiwasan na 'yung freezing na ginagawa ng WMM, pero sa sound naman siya nag-alburuto.

I searched for codecs that WMM might need to put sound pero wa epek. Dati naman ay tumatanggap siya ng sound. Hindi ko alam ang problema niya this time.

Lo and behold! A few days ago, bigla siyang gumana! Parang sinubukan lang ang pasensya ko talaga.

When I was done sound designing, halos maiyak ako sa tuwa! Hindi ko akalaing magagawa ko ng mag-isa ang post-production using WMM. Kinabahan kasi ako since 'yung mga classmates ko, may alam na sa editing. Magaganda 'yung previous works nila. Ako, super bagito! Pinaka-thunder sa kanila, pero pinaka-bagets re film technicalities.

Bigla kong nasabi sa sarili ko, "Shet! Ang ganda!"

Yesterday a few hours before the screening, nagka-problem ako with the volume. Using .wmv, malakas ang sound niya. I had to tone it down several times dahil ayokong lunurin sa sound ang film. Kailangang maramdaman ang lungkot throughout the entire film.

After feeling that sound volume is OK na, I made an .avi copy that I'd use to convert it to DVD.

Shet! Ang hina ng sound.

I made several tweaking sa sound only to learned that once I convert it to DVD, super lakas ang lumabas! So I had to go back to my original files and tweak the sound and made an .avi copy again to turn it into DVD.

Sa sobrang tagal, inabot na ko ng 4PM! 6PM ang screening ng class namin sa mag:net Katipunan. Nakaalis ako ng bahay ng 4:45PM. Nakakuha ako ng taxi ng almost 5:30PM.

Sa sobrang kaba ko na late kami darating sa place, di ko na masyado nakausap si Acy sa taxi. Pero ayun, past 6 kami dumating at di pa nag-i-start. May plano talaga si God, sabi ko. Hindi Niya ko pinasakay ng taxi kaagad kasi alam Niyang di naman magsisimula on time talaga. Tamang oras lang ang pagdating ko.

Happy na nga ako at andu'n si Acy at si Gino. For a while inakalang wala akong magiging bisita that night. Hindi pwede ang ibang mga kaibigan ko that night. Salamat na lang sa dalawa at hindi ako nag-isa.

(It was truly a memorable event because Auraeus Solito, who was one of the critiques that night, commended the film. Buo raw ang kuwento at punong-puno ng emosyon. Pwede na raw isali sa mga gay film competitions abroad.)

That Goddamn Soul Mate Episode!

"I know have you, guys, but... And really, I hate myself a little for saying this, but... it felt really sad not to have a man in my life who cares about me. No special guy to wish me happy birthday. No goddamn soul mate. And I don't even know if I believe in soul mates,"
- Carrie, "Sex and the City" (Season 4, Episode 1)

I cried over this episode in 2001. 10 years after, I still bawl myself over it...

The Ramblings of an Eight-Year Old Girl Who Cries as She Misses Her Father

"Alam mo ba, 'da, na tuwing nakikita ko si Kuya Biboy, naiiyak ako? Miss na miss ko na siya. Bakit ba kasi kailangan niyang magtrabaho sa New Zealand? Marami namang trabaho dito sa Pilipinas, ah. Nasaan ba siya pag kailangan ko siya? Bakit ba 'pag miss na miss mo na ang isang tao, wala sila? Pero 'pag di mo sila nami-miss, and'yan lang sila? Naaalala ko nu'n nang umupo ako sa pader, sabi niya, 'wag akong uupo du'n kasi madumi. Naaalala ko nu'n na 'pag sinabi kong nami-miss ko siya, pumupunta siya ka'gad dito. Tabi-tabi pa tayong matulog. Miss na miss ko na siya, da. Siguro may iba na siyang mahal du'n. Siguro may asawa na siya tapos magkakakaanak sila tapos makakalimutan na niya ko. Ayoko siyang magkaanak kasi ayokong makalimutan n'ya ko. Sabi n'ya nu'n, babalik siya ng March 2011, pero hindi naman siya bumalik. Wala siya nu'ng graduation ko. Wala siya nu'ng nanalo ako ng Spelling Bee. Siguro nga hindi na siya babalik. Miss mo na ba siya, 'da? Di ba, close friends kayo? Sana hindi na n'ya tayo iniwan. Parang tatay ko na siya..." - Angel

Sometimes, in between Angel's outpouring of emotions, hindi ko alam kung siya ba ang nagsasalita o ako. Tumatango na lang ako sa mga sinasabi niya. Hindi ko rin naman alam ang isasagot sa mga tanong niya.

A Tweet I Relate To

His tweets are too depressing for me and are almost at the brink of suicide most of the time, but this one I can relate to:

RT @rayamartin why i don't bother to make new friends, why my friends are scattered elsewhere in the world, why this feeling of getting old.

I miss my friends these days. I wish I could visit the old times where we would just hang-out our house and watch movies for hours. Back in high school, my friends would drop by unannounced just so they could watch a movie; acting as if our house was some sort of a movie house. I didn't mind though. I enjoyed having them around. Gusto kong iniestima sila. They knew that somehow I'd have the latest movie on hand or at least some movie they haven't seen before. But times have changed. Each of them has their own video players and (latest) movies can easily be found anywhere.

Maybe it's the age. Or maybe I'm just too lazy to make an effort. Nevertheless, I find it difficult making friends nowadays. 'Yung pagkakaroon ng kaibigan sa tunay nitong pakahulugan. I'm not comfortable calling newly-acquainted people friends because I give much value to the word. Ang pagiging magkaibigan ay sinusubok ng panahon. People don't become friends with a few talks and several gimmicks. It would take an ample amount of time before they could actually bond with one another. Heck, even long-time bonded friends can fall apart, what more are those you just met recently?

You know who your true friends are if they have stayed with you through ages. I only keep a few close friends at bay that I met since elementary. And'yan pa rin naman sila, but a lot has changed since each one started having families of their own. Nag-iba na ang priorities. Naging busy na sa kanya-kanyang buhay. Ang iba naman ay nasa abroad na.

The latest close friend of mine who left was Than-than. He works now in Singapore. Since we're both single, kami ang madalas na magkasama sa gimikan nitong mga nakaraang taon. Kami ang madalas na magkwentuhan ng mga hinanakit namin sa buhay at nagpapalitan ng kuro-kuro sa mga naging panandaliang relasyon namin. We have both broken-up from good relationships, and I feel that we both are still trying to mend our hearts. Somehow, it's good to know na di kami mag-isa sa pinagdadaanan namin at and'yan kami sa isa't-isa para aliwin ang aming mga sarili just by being together.

But he left. At mag-isa na uli ako. Pakiramdam ko ay laging lumilisan ang mga taong malalapit sa 'kin at wala akong magawa para pigilan sila. I'd lose them to a husband, a work, or to "someone else".

I know that no matter what happens, we'd remain friends. Pero minsan, gusto mo na and'yan lang sila sa tabi mo, sinasamahan ka sa pinagdaaraanan mo kahit pa hindi ka nagsasalita. Sila ang mga taong kahit di mo pagbuhusan ng sama ng loob, makasama mo lang, ay OK na...

Ask Sharon

In 2006, while I was undergoing my training in Star Cinema, my mentor told me to write some questions that I would want to ask a celebrity. S'ympre, si Mega ang pinili ko. The questions were part of the character development I was doing for my script. I should know my characters well the way I want to know Mega.

If given the chance, I'd ask Mega these questions. Though, of course, since medyo too personal ang iba, baka ipabasa ko na lang sa kanya and leave it up to her if she'd answer them or not, i.e. if I would not take them out altogether.

Mahaba-haba ito, so 'pag nagkataon, kung itatanong ko ang mga ito, baka abutin kami ng 48 hours! Sa daldal ni Mega, di ka makakakuha ng one-liner na sagot sa kanya, for sure. Given that this was written in 2006, I would rephrase some questions and add new ones. So baka mas humaba!
