Skylight Films' new horror movie AMOROSA opens on August 29

POTATO ON THE GO BULLETIN (Movie):

When Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang hit theaters earlier this year, it was billed as a Skylight Films production distributed by Star Cinema. People were puzzled. They were familiar with the latter, but the former was alien to them. So at the time, the question on their minds was, “What is Skylight Films?”

According to Star Cinema’s Enrico Santos, Skylight Films is the newest unit in ABS-CBN Films. It was established sometime last year, but only started actively making movies this year. “It is the network’s ‘maindie’ or ‘mainstream-indie’ film unit. It’s not a label of Star Cinema. We don’t do the kinds of movies that Star Cinema makes, like yung mga family dramas. Ours have more edge. They’re not as experimental as the indie films made for Cinemalaya, but they’re indie pa rin, although we do try to cater to and entertain mainstream sensibilities.”

From school affairs to family gatherings, we can notice how Pinoy parents are so much involved in nurturing the talent of their kids.  Parents help their children undergo training, coaching, exhibition and competition to develop their talents and skills and share their God given gift to other people.   But our society has already evolved.  The showcase of talent went beyond in just performing in the immediate surrounding.  In the 70s to 90s, children join singing competitions and noon time programs in TV.  In early 2000, reality TV took over and talent search among children evolved as well.  And in 2010, kids' talent invaded the Internet and perfect examples are Charice Pempengco, Maria Aragon, among others.  But now, Promil Pre-School and ABS-CBN made kiddie talent search even better by combining reality TV, online integration and the nurturing process of kids' talents which give birth to the program PROMIL PRE-SCHOOL I-SHINE TALENT CAMP!

From the on-ground auditions at the Mall of Asia, Puregold and Cebu Parkmall, to video entries uploaded at the i-Shine website and sent via PO box, hundreds of kids nationwide have showcased their talents in a bid to be part of this year’s Promil Pre-School i-Shine Talent Camp.
