UNO Magazine is a men’s lifestyle magazine that covers men’s interest that ranges from women, sports, cars and other vehicles, gadgets, career, fashion to fitness. It aims to publish relevant topics that its target market will find fun, useful, inspirational and intelligent. On its 9th year in the business, HUBO Productions and UNO Magazine (5
Leaf Publishing Co., Inc.) has recently signed an agreement to produce a video
production that will accompany UNO Magazine’s on its 9th Anniversary issue. As a result,
the group of UNO has planned a commemorative special collector’s edition issue
and a grand celebration with theme “UNOversity -- Back to
Basics” for the festivities.
UNO Magazine Managing Director Maan Ilustre said “UNOversity theme is a Grand Alumni Homecoming of anything and everything UNO.
It is a Pep Rally of sorts for everything we have done. We are closing the
chapter of the last 9 years and entering a new exciting era.” She reiterated and expressed excitement with this
initial collaboration with HUBO. Ida Ceniza-Tiongson, HUBO board member,
represented HUBO in sealing the partnership. Says Ceniza-Tiongson “HUBO has
always been open to collaboration that would challenge and expand our artistic
reach and this venture is one of them. We are delighted to be working with
UNO.” The celebration will be kicked-off by a Grand Alumni Homecoming party on
August 29, which will bring back the top and hottest UNO cover girls before.
HUBO Productions, on its sixth year,
sees this project as an expansion from its core film ventures to solidify its
multi-media status. To date, HUBO has released three-full length films, with
two that are in post-production work. It has ventured to produce a soundtrack
that featured emerging Philippine independent bands, co-presented theatre works
both in New York City and Manila, and supported other independent films and
music video. HUBO has also championed a visual arts exhibition in Salt Lake
City, Utah, sponsored a dance festival in Seattle, and has been instrumental in
organizing a fitness flashmob in the Philippines.
