Kapuso stars, execs gather for exclusive screening of ‘Ganito Tayo, Kapuso’ short film collection

In celebration of its 75th anniversary, GMA Network released “Ganito Tayo, Kapuso,” a collection of seven inspiring short films that aim to spotlight through compelling narratives these timeless Filipino values: Maka-Diyos, Masayahin, Maabilidad, Makabayan, Mapagmalasakit, Mapagmahal sa Pamilya, and Malikhain.

Present at the exclusive screening on Thursday evening in Makati were Kapuso executives, including GMA Network Chief Marketing Officer Lizelle Maralag; GMA Integrated News, Regional TV and Synergy Oliver Victor B. Amoroso; and Sparkle GMA Artist Center Senior Talent Manager Tracy Garcia. 

Also in attendance were cast members Mikee Quintos, Sofia Pablo, Allen Ansay, Matt Lozano, Althea Ablan, Rolando Innocencio, Sienna Stevens, Euwenn Mikaell, and more.

Mikee, who is part of the first short film that tackles the characteristics of being Godly, said that she feels honored to be part of the project.

“I’m honored na sa ’min na-trust ‘yung isa sa mga, for me, ang pinaka-importanteng value. Kasi siyempre dapat Siya ‘yung inuuna natin, ‘di ba?” she said.

The event also gathered a prestigious guest list including client representatives from campaign partners alongside other advertisers.

“Ganito Tayo, Kapuso” is a joint effort between the GMA Sales and Marketing Group, the Program Support Division, GMA Post Production, and Sparkle talents.

Director Paul Ticzon said that he is extremely happy and proud after the successful screening.

“‘Yung effort kasi behind all the shorts by everyone, siyempre hindi ‘yon easily makikita. But knowing and remembering what we went through, tapos seeing how people reacted to it, parang bawi lahat ng pagod,” he said.

Director Vince Gealogo admitted that the project has been really challenging but also emotional.

“Naging very close ‘yung mga tao. The collaboration was very wonderful. Everybody contributed,” he said.

“Ganito Tayo, Kapuso” will be available to the public on August 17 at TriNoma in Quezon City.
