00:00Ito naman, hindi lang sa larangan po ng palakasan nagiging kilala ang pangalan ng Pilipinas, kundi pati na rin po sa industriya ng pelikula.
00:08Isang patunay po rito ang short film na Defectives na nagwagi sa 16 Kota Kinabalu International Film Festival sa Malaysia.
00:15At ngayong umaga, makasama natin sa na Eunice Mackenzie Villas at Andre Miguel Galano upang ibahagi ang kanilang inspirasyon at karanasan para dito.
00:25Rise and shine and congratulations, Eunice and Andre.
00:27Thank you so much po for inviting us here din.
00:31Congratulations! Alright, curious kami dito sa Defectives, tungkol ba saan ito at paano na buong konsepto ng pelikula?
00:39So ang film po namin na Defectives, from the word itself, Defectives, kasi meron po kaming two actors, yung aming robot, si MH6 and XE2.
00:50And they are created by someone na hindi na-meet nung mga robots na yun yung gusto nung creator.
01:02So they are tag defectives.
01:04And nung tinapon sila ng creator nila, they found their objectives within each other.
01:10And ayun, so other than traveling into places na napuntahan ng kanilang owner, they found their friendship in each other sa dalawang robots na yun.
01:21Parang very graphics yung approach nung film ninyo, ha?
01:24Yes.
01:25Very unconventional.
01:26We wanna know what's the message of the short film?
01:29Yung message mostly, well, yun nga, kasi nga sabi nga, di ba, yung finding your own purpose in life.
01:37And yun nga, parang akala mo meron ka ng meaning sa buhay, pero yung pala, you might find it along the way.
01:47Parang gano'n.
01:48Okay.
01:49Anong pinang malaking challenge bilang producers ng film po lang ito?
01:53Mostly, dahil actually yung film itself is very low budget.
01:58So, hindi, we're very, ano, we're very proud na parang na-recognize siya even though it's very low budget.
02:05Siguro yung pinakang hardest part nung production itself is yung time.
02:13Kasi, nag-start kami around 8pm?
02:178pm.
02:188pm po kami nag-start.
02:20Then, natapos kami around 3am.
02:24Yes, 3am.
02:24For the whole shoot?
02:25Yes.
02:26Okay.
02:26So, short film lang naman po siya.
02:28So, mostly, it's scenic shots.
02:32Then, nag-focus po kami talaga dun sa itsura po ng robots.
02:37Okay.
02:37I wonder paano kinokontrol yung mga robots?
02:39Ah, so mostly, may ano siya eh.
02:42May ano siyang remote control.
02:43Yes, neto.
02:44Okay.
02:45So, kayo yung, kumbaga, parang uma-arte na dun sa robot.
02:49Kasi kayo yung nagkocontrol.
02:50I understand you guys are still graduating students.
02:54Ang kuros nyo ay music.
02:56Well, ito ay scenic din naman.
02:58Di ba?
02:58So, related din.
03:00Now, you guys are producers.
03:02How does it feel like you guys seeing the film in the international scene?
03:06Well, actually, first of all, it's all thanks to our director, Jalen Buenaceda.
03:11Sadly, hindi namin siya kasama ngayon kasi he's very swamped with films din.
03:17Ah, gano'n, wala siya dito.
03:18Yes.
03:19Ay, naku ah.
03:20Debiro lang.
03:21Next time siguro.
03:23So, yung isa sa mga, ano talaga, isa sa mga steps na, ano, sorry?
03:32Yung isa sa mga pinaka mahirap din na face nga namin.
03:36Siyempre, graduating and then, yun nga, yung nakapunta kami sa Malaysia.
03:39Himakita yung film nyo sa international scene, di ba?
03:42Ang saya.
03:42Yes, ang sobrang, ano, sobrang nakaka-overwhelm.
03:45Kasi, ano, actually, hindi namin talaga ina-expect na sobrang daming tao yung magkakaroon talaga ng pagmamahal dito sa film namin.
03:54Kasi, other than sa, siyempre, other than sa short film siya na, she note for a night,
04:01um, they love the concept na ang actors lang nung film namin is the robots only.
04:08And they, ano, the people that they see here are just the extras.
04:12And ang pinaka, ano, ang pinaka-focus talaga namin is yung robots.
04:16And, ayun, they, they also love the jokes.
04:20They also love the story itself and the ending talaga.
04:24We met, ano, eh, we met all the goals.
04:28We met all the, um, the message na we want to bring.
04:33And also, the viewers enjoyed making also their own, um, conclusions dun sa film.
04:39Which is, yun din naman yung gusto ng director namin na mangyari.
04:43Gano'n kahaba yung short film?
04:45Five minutes.
04:46Five minutes.
04:47O, saan, paano mapapanood ito ng mga tao?
04:50Ah, actually, dahil ano po kasi siya.
04:52Part pa po siya ng mga film festivals.
04:54Okay.
04:55So, hindi pa po siya available online.
04:57Ah, okay.
04:58So, I think meron po, this September, yes, this September, mawapanood po siya sa, ah, cinemas, ah, for, ah,
05:09ah, Sinag Maynila, yeah, or Sinag Maynila.
05:11Ah, kasama siya sa Sinag Maynila, yung binulitan natin kanina sa toks.
05:14Finally, please.
05:15Siguro may papayan nilang sa mga kapwa kabataang Pilipino na gusto rin pasukin ang paggawa ng pelikula
05:20at syempre ang makapasok sa international scene.
05:23Ah, okay.
05:24Um, hmm, siguro, okay.
05:29Kasi kami, kami ni Jalen, so, we've been friends since junior high.
05:35Friends, ah, friends lang.
05:36Yes.
05:36Okay.
05:37Ah, sure, okay.
05:40Um, friends kami since junior high.
05:42And since then, ah, talagang mahilig na po kami mag, ah, gumawa ng mga videos, mga ano, mga stock, mga narrative gano'n.
05:51Ah, kahit sa, for school and stuff.
05:54Ah, kumbaga, enjoy creating stories, showing stories, and telling stories.
06:00Ah, kumbaga, yun na yung magdadala sa'yo saan eh, sa international, like, international places.
06:07Yes, it's, it's that passion yung magdadala, rather than, like a, like a method.
06:12Ah, kumbaga, yun, so, sana mapanood natin itong defective, so, in September, we'll have a chance, ano, to watch the short film.
06:18And again, congratulations to the whole team.
06:21At sana ay makapagawa pa kayo ng marami pang mga pelikula.
