From the page: "May 25 on Rock Ed Radio >> "INDIE: Ako, artist" We are often surprised when we hear a good song on mainstream radio and find out that it's self-produced. Which raises the question: "Does a big label validate talent?" Indie labels are on the rise but the self-produced work is another beast altogether. Let's talk to artists who manage and produce themselves. Patrick Alvarez is producing "Wonder" his first album, Aimee Marcos is the drummer of the band called The Dorques (also self-producing so far...) and Dystocia Curve is a highly prolific band that is still in the outskirts of the scene. They have recorded approximately 60 tracks by now and they plan to release an album within the year. Poet and Executive Producer of Panoramanila Pictures, Jourdan Sebastian will tell us about the behind-the-scenes vibe of the independently produced film entitled "Ploning." The creative scene in the Philippines is brimming with robust talent. Why wait for the breaks, they say? Well,... - ploning

From the page: "Saturday, May 3, 2008 Ploning: A Love Story of Many Levels The poster caught my eye as a mobile ad truck drove beside me along EDSA traffic, although I couldn't really make out the title. Even if it was starred by Juday I knew it was a different kind of movie because it was only her - not the entire cast, unlike most Filipino movies - on the poster. Then it was endorsed by my favorite actor in his multiply site, so I know I definitely have to see it. The story is set in Cuyo, Palawan and is triggered by a seemingly-foreign man docking on the town shores, in search of a certain Ploning. It then flashes back to some 25 years ago, when Ploning, the town beauty well-loved for being a supportive friend to everyone, was at her prime. Her popularity, however, belies her silence and her grief for a childhood sweetheart who has left for Manila and who has not returned for 14 years.

From the page: "Thursday, May 01, 2008 Ploning Quiet. Pretty much like the islands of Cuyo, Ploning is one quiet movie. A story of a young man in search for his past pegged at a 30-year old spinster named Ploning, who in turn, has her own story to tell. Around Ploning, are stories of a cripple mother, a dying father, a city girl who tries to look for her life being due in giving one, a hermit wife left by her husband, a strong-willed mother who, just like salt melts down in the rain, and a young boy, with his fragile memory lapses, weaves the entire plot. All set in a picturesque island somewhere in the Sulu Sea where Taiwanese fishermen would often illegally fare. Just like Cuyo, Ploning is a visual feast. An excusable indulgence, I would say, how can you possibly not put postcard worthy scenes if your location is such a place?

But if you happen to be in this crises-stricken country, please take time to watch. I am listing the reasons why I should go to the cinema today. 1. It stars the redoubtable Judy Ann Santos. 2.

It is well-budgeted. The cast and crew even waived talent fees to make this endeavor. 4. They have excellent photography. (Look at the gorgeous pics!) 5. It has a very arresting trailer. 6.

From the page: "Joey Reyes on face-off with Judayâ€s â€Ploning†By Marinel Cruz Philippine Daily Inquirer First Posted 20:32:00 04/28/2008 MANILA, Philippinesâ€"â€oeI wouldnâ€t be surprised if I learned that Judy Ann was hurt. Iâ€d feel that way, too, if I were in her shoes. I know how important â€Ploning†is to her,” said award-winning filmmaker Jose Javier Reyes. Inquirer Entertainment sought Reyes†reaction to the impending box-office face-off between his Star Cinema film, â€oeWhen Love Begins,” and Judy Annâ€s â€oePloning,” which both open in cinemas tomorrow. Juday was reportedly unhappy about Star Cinemaâ€s decision to schedule the theatrical release of â€oeWhen Love Begins” on the same date as her movieâ€s. The actress, who has made several hit movies and TV shows for the Kapamilya network, is a co-producer of â€oePloning.” She is often seen these days on rival channel GMA 7 promoting her film. â€oeI love Juday and Ryan (Agoncillo, the actress†boyfriend).

From the page: "Bored Ka Na Ba? Manood ng Ploning! 28 Apr Posted by nenyalorien as Movies If youâ€re looking for a great movie to watch this season, Ploning is a great movie to watch. I was able to watch it last April 25, and it was just amazing. The last scenes had me bawling, and it wasnâ€t Gina Pareñoâ€s tour de force moment of high drama. What made the movie amazing were: * The cinematography. * Miss Judy Ann Santos†subtle and alluring acting. * The beauty of Cuyo. * The fluidity of the story, the transitions, everything. Itâ€s all like a dance! * How it sears you to the bone and yet leaves you with a light feeling. * It gives you something to think about. * It is NOT your usual Filipino film. Looking for something to watch other than the usual brainless slapstick fare? Looking for a glimmer that Philippine Cinema is on the way to a renaissance? Ploning the Movie is one movie you shouldnâ€t let out of your list of movies to watch. For more of what it was like, more incisive... - ploning

From contributing personal investments to committing time to promote the film on two major TV networks, in the malls, and on the Internet, the support from these people seems extra-special. Ploning is beyond the common undertaking for this is Judy Annâ€s thirtieth birthday film project. The movie brings many firsts for its lead actress, making things even more special for the birthday girl. This is the first time for Judy Ann not to have a leading man. This is her first attempt to shoot using live sound, because in all her other film projects, she would normally dub in post-production.

From the page: "No sunbathing off a Palawan resortâ€oePloning” director Dante Nico Garcia teamed up veteran and non-professional actors to come up with a masterpiece of contemporary cinema. One of the powerhouse cast is Tony Mabesa, founder of the high_status Dulaang UP, professor of National Artists for Cinema Lino Brocka and Ishmael Bernal and himself an acclaimed actors. He acts in as Ploningâ€s stern father. He had a falling off with Judy Annâ€s character that provides the on-going conflict between them, only to be resolved by movieâ€s end. Tony admits he had difficulty doing the role, the expert that he is. Like other cast members, tackling the Cuyunin dialect with the correct intonation is no sunbathing in one of Palawanâ€s world-famous resorts. With the help of a dialect coach, he took the bull by the horn like the rest of the actors, speaking Cuyunin like a native." - ploning

From the page: "Primetime Queen Again In The Silver Screen Ploning The sleepy town of Cuyo, Palawan has been held captive by a woman with her mysterious ways. This is the story of the movie Ploning, which stars Judy Ann Santos as the town belle who waits patiently for her first love Tomas. Juday who is also the producer of the movie,has high hopes that Ploning will be a blockbuster. This is despite the fact that she will collide with home networkâ€s latest movie offering. On April 30, it will be Juday versus Anne Curtis. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch...] Though of course, Juday has a great following do she soe not need to fret. Still, with the movie, being old-fashioned as its story seems, â€oeWhen Love Begins” may have an edge there. Plus, Aga also has fans through the years. Maybe, will just wait and see." - ploning

From the page: "Sunday, April 20, 2008 Indipendent Films and Digital Movies are NOT Synonymous An independent movie is a production that did NOT come from big film outfits like Regal Entertainment and Viva Films. Such productions may use digital video cameras or film stock, depending on the budget. Just because a movie was independently produced, that doesnâ€t mean it was digitally made. An example of an independent movie that used film stock is Ploning starring Judy Ann Santos. A digital movie uses digital video cameras (obviously) instead of film stock. And likewise, the fact that a movie was digitally made shouldnâ€t suggest it was independently produced. Inang Yaya (Mother Nanny) and Pinoy Blonde from Unitel Pictures and Ang Lalake sa Parola (The Man in the Lighthouse) from Viva Films were all digitally made.
