Aswang is one of Filipino mythical creatures and the most feared of all, it is said to be an evil vampire-like type with a wide variety of stories. When I was small, my brother used to feared me with aswang which he said living outside our gateway, so that I can not play outside. Then high school came and saw a movie shake rattle and roll with mythical creature tiktik is present and hunts all the pregnant women in town to eat their babies using her long tongue from the roof to the womb.
Now, TIKTIK: The Aswang Chronicles which is an upcoming movie produced by Reality Entertainment, Agostodos and GMA Films. Starring Dingdong Dantes, Lovi Poe, Joey Marquez, Janice De Belen, Roi Vinzon and LJ Reyes. All scenes are taken in green screen, its the first Filipino I've known used entirely green screen for a full length movie.
Bloggers had a chance to talked to the film's director Erik Matti and watched the first 20 minutes of the film. He shared to us that the making of this movie is very challenging from the development and conceptualizing. He always wanted to do an aswang movie since then, but when he met Dingdong thats the time it pursued. He imparted that filming in green screen is one of the hardest challenges that he and the crew has "Makikita nyo ung green studio, namin patchi- patchi just to cover the flaws and to make it clean on digital screen" Matti said.
We had a chance to watched the 20 minutes of the movie and direct Erik shared to us the insights and filming of the movie by comparing the green screen shot and the digital shot which is so amazing. I learned that Filipino can do films like this. I visual effects was great and the Filipino photos and designs of other creature is new and very Filipino. Its like I'm watching comics in screen, from color, texture but with real movement and developments.
This movie will not only show the first green screen film but also the artistic side of the Filipinos which can compete globally. The movie will be shown on October 17, 2012 in theaters near you.
