Sony Wedding Video Competition

June 28, 2008

Sony SR42

To be part of a breakthrough event… thrilling.
To have our work viewed by a distinguished audience… exhilarating.
To be mentioned in the same breath with top-notch videographers… inspiring.
To be recognized by the masters… uplifting.

It was dubbed as a competition but it turned into a virtual showcase reel
displaying the wealth of talent of Filipino videographers.
We were blessed to be included in the Magic 5 of the
1st Sony Wedding Video Competition alongside these geniuses:

Reality TV pioneer Buddy Gancenia (Top awardee)
Iloilo gem Mayad Studios (Awardee)
Nueva Ecija-based Philip Esteban of MartinDV
Former TV producer Neil Burdeos of Director’s Cut DV

Much appreciation to internationally acclaimed videographers, Jason Magbanua & Mervin Gobaco, for pushing for this competition…next year ulit : )

Even more appreciation to the judges for the favorable judgement leading us to a second-place award. : )

  1. [...] we were watching tv while awaiting the results of the competition. it was half past ten when bob texted the news indicating he got 2nd place. we were a bit bummed because we wanted him to get 1st but getting 2nd is good enough considering the caliber of the competition. buddy gancenia grabbed 1st place with his trademark reality tv style showcasing his editing skills. meanwhile, mayad studios of iloilo proved that there are videography geniuses outside of the metropolis. we’re obviously both glad and proud of this accomplishment of bob’s (we wouldn’t be blogging about it if we’re not ). we remember more than a year ago when we first “encountered” him (if grabbing a free cd sampler on an unmanned booth is considered an encounter ) and realized that there’s more to videography other than jason. hindi pa kasi matunog si bob noon even in w@w. we’ve followed his work and he has consistently produced great videos. this guy just needed to be known… needed an audience… needed to be recognized. finally, he has been. congratulations, bob. you truly deserve it. check bob’s blog post here.
