  • Film Industry Executive Summary
    An In-depth Study on the Film Industry In the Philippines Submitted by: Dr. Leonardo Garcia, Jr. Project Head and Ms. Carmelita Masigan Senior Researcher August 17, 2001 1 FILM INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Movies are a powerful force in Philippine society. Movies, more than just a source of entertainment, reflect a nation’s personality. On the silver screen takes shape all the hopes, dreams and fantasies of the common man: legends, love, the stuff of myths and make believe. Its heroes become larger than life, often attaining the stature of demigods. They are looked upon as role models, serving as resources of inspiration. But most important, the movie industry has become a vital part of the national economy. The paper aims to define the industry and its structure, examine the laws that hinder or facilitate its growth as well as the existing associations and what they have done; look into the market potential of the film industry and its foreign market demand; examine supply capability; identify opportunities and threats confronting the industry; prepare an action plan to enhance competitiveness; and recommend a performance monitoring scheme. The film industry shows that its gross value added is growing faster than the gross domestic product and gross national product. In other words, the industry has a lot of potential to improve further through the years. Extent of growth of firms is primarily Metro-Manila based with Southern Tagalog as a far second. There is more investment in labor or manpower than capital expenditures based on the 1994 Census of Establishments. Motion picture also called film or movie is a series of still photographs on film, projected in rapid succession onto a screen by means of light.

  • Um Filme De Brillante Mendoza Sinopses Sinopse Curta
    UM FILME DE BRILLANTE MENDOZA SINOPSES SINOPSE CURTA Peping vai casar-se com a mãe do seu filho recém-nascido. Pobre e sem posses, aceita uma oferta de trabalho bem pago que um amigo lhe faz. Mas ao constatar que o trabalho implica matar uma jovem mulher Peping mergulha numa viagem às trevas. SINOPSE Peping vai hoje casar-se com a jovem mãe do seu filho recém- -nascido. Para um estudante pobre da academia de polícia não se coloca a questão de recusar uma oportunidade de fazer dinheiro. Já acos- tumado a receber dinheiro sujo de um pequeno cartel de droga, Peping aceita, ingenuamente, uma oferta de trabalho bem pago que um amigo corrupto lhe faz. Rapidamente, Peping mergulha numa intensa viagem às trevas enquanto testemunha o rapto e a tortura de uma lindíssima pros- tituta. Horrorizado e impotente perante esta aterradora operação nocturna dirigida por um assassino psicótico, Peping vê-se forçado a perceber se ele próprio será um assassino... 2 COMENTÁRIOS DE BRILLANTE MENDOZA KINATAY Kinatay significa “esquartejar” em filipino. A história foi baseada em acontecimentos reais. Enquanto fazia pesquisa para o meu filme SLINGSHOT, entrevistei pequenos criminosos e deparei-me com a confissão de um estudante de criminologia que passou por uma situação semelhante à da personagem de Peping em KINATAY. Fas- cinou-me ouvir em primeira mão a experiência deste jovem. Pensei que daria um tema interessante para um filme. Atraía-me a ideia de confrontar a morte no momento e no lugar mais inesperados. É acerca de percebermos a total arbitrariedade da morte. TERROR Não diria que KINATAY é um filme de terror, embora tenha alguns elementos em comum com o género.
