The past few months have flown so quickly. I don’t even remember what my last entry was. It’s just that I’ve been really busy. I left for LA on April 28, 2010 to attend a film festival. I was supposed to just stay there for only 2 weeks but LA just had so much to offer that time. And I just couldn’t resist.
I came back 1st week of June. After changing my return flight 3 times, I finally decided that it was indeed time to come home. It was a dramatic moment in downtown LA, in front of the Wells Fargo building, I decided to come home for a project.
The project is a movie entitled ROSARIO, an official entry to the 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival with Albert Martinez as my director. It has been 2 years since we started on pre-production on this project. After offering it to different film outfits and to different actresses, ROSARIO is finally ready to be born.
We are on our 23rd shooting day. It has been quite a journey for us. From August 2008 when I first met with Direk Albert in Figaro Esguerra St. to August 2010 when we are nearly about to wrap. Shooting almost every other day since July, I barely had time to spend time with family and friends. But it has been a great experience for me. I’ve lost weight, I have gotten sick and almost had pneumonia. I barely sleep or get to exercise. But I am not complaining. I’m happy with my work.
The set is my playground.
ROSARIO coming this Christmas 2010.
