Artisano Studio
(1 review)
For budding photography enthusiasts who want to practice their lighting skills in a controlled…read morestudio environment, Artisano Studio would be a good place to start. At Php 850 an hour for photography shoots, you can use the studio's three available light strobes plus all the light modifiers (softboxes, snoots, octabox, etc.) that you might need. They've also got a wide range of different coloramas or paper backgrounds should you want to experiment with different background colors. If you're into portraiture or fashion photography, the studio also has a hair and make-up station where your shoot talents can get all dolled up, plus a changing room. A shoot assistant is also on-call should you need any assistance with the equipment. The studio is modestly sized with high-ceilings. They also have sitting areas for when you've invited a large group to cheer you on. For pro-photographers, it's also a good place to schedule your commercial shoots and invite clients over. Artisano Studio also accommodates video shoots at a higher cost per hour.

Go Motion Productions

Hidden in the less glamorous side of Makati lies one of the youngest and hottest production houses…read morein the country. The inconspicuous four storey building might not seem much from the outside, but this houses fifty creative go-getters joined together for the purpose of creating the best videos the country has ever seen. You have probably seen some of Go Motion Productions' works. For two straight years, the company has filmed the ostensibly popular Nestea Laboracay videos. Other notable clients include Nestlé, P&G, Unilever, GSM and basically all the who's who in the ad agency business. I have witnessed this company grow from its humble start-up beginnings in Quezon City a few years back to its current stature: a prod powerhouse with a diverse client base and several awards under its belt. My friend has been working here for several years now and he was been the happiest busy man that I have known. For their full product portfolio I suggest you Google them. No job is too big.. Or small for these guys
I actually know a couple of people from Go Motion but it doesn't mean I am biased when I say that…read morethis production house is a serious contender to become one of the better prod houses in the country. As a production person myself, I have an idea on the ins and outs of commercial production and given Go Motion's record, I'm pretty sure they can talk the talk and walk the walk. Headed by a bunch of young professionals, Go Motion has done commercials and digital productions that are worth taking note of. Their creativity is coupled with professional, which makes them a team that is good to work with. They are spunky, creative and it helps that they can put a youthful spin on their projects.

Professional video production is serious -- and quite often tedious -- business. Even as every kid…read morewith a capable computer thinks he can produce and edit his own video, it takes real, trained, and skilled pros to make a major production go smoothly from shoot to final edit. This is where production houses come in -- and these days, when video projects are not limited to 30-second TVCs but also mean much longer made-for-web ones, finding a good prod house that can also give you the best value for your money is a major deal. That's why I love working with Giant Sponge. From their executive producers who take care of putting together your requirements ang pushing for best possible costs, to their in-house and recommended freelance directors (they make sure to reco the best one based not just on cost but on the best skills fit for your project), and their editors and graphic artists and specialists who are all perfectionists in their own right -- they all go through stringent screening to be part of the GS team, and are able to deliver. Needless to say, i've been very happy with the numerous projects i've had with them in the last 5 years. I highly recommend giving them a shot. PS. The Giant Sponge team is also known for always feeding their clients well. Major win. Even their coffee is great. Ask for Bert's or Kuya Oscar's coffee.

It's not all videos they do though, they also specialize in events and its coverage (whether that be a wedding, debuts, a concert, a company night--you name it, they'd deliver). They're a full-on service, covering your production needs from casting, to shooting proper, to post-production processes. And the most amazing part? They are ran by young individuals, some even younger than me. Admirable! They were actually the company who did my audition video last year, which was one hell of an experience, by the way.
Clayshop Inc.
I had a project once that had me watching hours and hours of actual clips from a race. My task was…read moreto get the best shots, stitch them together and make a story out of it. The work was composed of 10 videos, 3 minutes each and I, being the sole copywriter had to finish everything in 4 days. It was my first big project and I was so stressed and shaken by the whole thing that my hair started to fall out. Luckily, I worked with a production house that made everything easier for me. They stayed with me throughout the "ordeal", fed me well, assisted my every need and gave me encouragement whenever I would feel my tears well up. Yes, it was that terrible but we finished strong! My director August Espino made my scripts come to life and in the end all the hard work pulled through. Our mega client was happy, so we were happy. I'd definitely recommend this production house to anyone looking for one. They work well and they work hard.
Unitel Productions
Unitel is one of the bigger and better production outfits here in the Philippines. They have been…read morein the film and video production industry for quite a while and they have churned a ton of ads, movies, television shows, digital content and more. If Unitel was a Star Wars character, I'd say it was Yoda - powerful and very smart. Don't be surprised as the company has a seriously rockstar staff and crew. With the brilliant minds of directors Chris Martinez, Yam Laranas, Pancho Esguerra and Mark Mendoza, just to name a few, be assured that Unitel can make your storyboards and wish lists into a reality - as long as your budget permits it! Hahaha. I am personally a big fan of Unitel and the works they have come up with. They continually strive to make relevant content and complementing these with beautiful visuals.
Abracadabra
I got to work with Abracadabra when I was still with a local cable channel doing their station ID…read more I think it was a little over 2 or 3 years ago but I can say that my experience with them was nothing short of amazing. I consider it as one of the more valuable experiences I got from my former work. I was then working with Abracadabra director Paul Soriano (yes, Toni Gonzaga's new hubby) and I have to say that his team was very easy to work with. Because we were the clients, they impressed us with their work ethics and how fast they work. Yes, the shoot was done in 24 or 25 hours but upon seeing the work put together, I was thoroughly impressed. They delivered what was expected and quite frankly, a bit more. From what production person to another, I can honestly say that Abracadabra is one of the leading production houses in the country and for good reason - they churn out world-class quality work! If you want to know more about Abra, their works, their panel of directors and how to commission them, check out their website!

Video/Film Production
Edge Manila is your solution for all post-production needs. They're a one-stop shop for editing,…read morecolor grading, visual FX, and any additional cleaning that a film or video goes through before it goes live. They're a very easy group to work with, fast and efficient, and it helps that everyone on their team are geeks and movie buffs as well! Edge Manila has done work with some big names in the local film industry, and you'll see lots of their finished work on MTV, local networks and film festivals, and the big screen itself. The head honcho, John Wong, is a director and editor himself, so he knows how to balance both sides of the coin. When I worked with Edge on a film project, they took great care of us. Even though we were cutting it very close to the deadline (our fault, not theirs), they pushed and helped us make it to the finish line without complaint. Their rates were also very friendly, and for the quality of work that they do, there's hardly need to go anywhere else.
My wife and I had been pressed for time to plan and complete preparations for our wedding in 2018…read more We invested effort in searching and watching different wedding videos over the internet; and of course, a good search entails referencing one's personal standards in gauging these works before deciding whom to finally get. It had been quite a ride. For one, the impressions we took of the different styles there are ranged from the usual to the undone. Some had too much flavor in our opinion, while others had its own claim of it; some seemed cohesive enough, while others simply left us asking, "Where is the juice?" Our search stretched for a few days as my wife was looking for that 'something' (I believe my part in this was to be patient and let her take as much time as she needed); I asked how she meant this. That's when she educated me that one of the best ways you would know if a wedding videographer is good is if their work makes you feel warm and is emotionally touching. At this point, we knew it would be quite a challenge to find that. Fortunately, our wedding coordinator and friend referred us to Hello & Co. After seeing a sample of their work, we had all but high spirits toward our first meeting with the awesome Ms. Phoebe Rutaquio. We were at first hesitant to raise a preconceived idea for the wedding video. We've had reservations that concepts might not be an acceptable part of the deal. At that time, we did not know that it was Hello & Co.'s forte; and it was just as unexpected that the outcome of our meeting would be a genuine display of this expertise. A good way to describe it is that when you see their product, simple oohs and ahhs would be foregone with. Immediately, you find yourself fawning over each frame of footage; you would see people at your venue exchanging awed looks that ask, 'Did you see that?'; you would hear or receive comments about it from your guests several days after the event; you would replay the event in your head and wish you were there again. Hello & Co., for their integrity, level of skill and commitment to their craft - and to which, I believe, the prospect of seventy to a hundred projects a year falls secondary - deserve our sincerest praise and thanks. Hence, I submit this review hoping to translate our gratitude for how their work has made an impact on our wedding day, and boost them to the top of everyone's list, if they aren't already. To review their rates, we would have to say it's rather subjective; it's art. Should a future client expect more, Hello & Co. can provide a contract covering all of their packages before the magic begins.
If you're a production person like myself, having the right kind of contacts for equipment rental…read moreis EVERYTHING. While advertising has all the money in the world to spend (at least so I've heard), television and digital video production can't say the same for themselves. With TV, and now I am learning that with digital content as well, the cheaper, the better. I know, #producerproblems. Back when I was still working for a local cable channel, I had the challenge of producing high quality promos with a very limited budget. It was quite a mean feat but I was able to pull it off with the help of a few friends. They pointed me to Cinerent, a production rental house that's got the works - camera and lenses rental, camera grips, light equipment and audio rental. Just like every other production rental house, Cinerent has a complete list of whatever you'll need in a shoot. All their equipment has a corresponding caretaker to make sure that the shoot runs well and without any hitch, at least from their part. Their day rate is equivalent to a 16-hour shoot, starting from the time you set-up and ending when someone shouts, "that's a wrap!" Cinerent guys (the grips, the people you scheduled your reservations to, etc) are all very nice as well. In a highly stressful shoot day, all the smiling faces and energetic personalities are what will help make the process more fun! It's one of the main reasons I like Cinerent - I've never had problem with any of their people in any of the shoots I've done with them. Thank God for these guys and I've managed to pull off some of the most difficult shoots I've had.

Their working experience varies from advertising, corporate events, political campaign strategies and materials to music video production, music producing and recording, film scoring, independent film making and visual documentaries. Some of their corporate clients includes Fullybooked, Colgate-Palmolive, Sky Cable, Jollibee, Starmobile, Watsons, Happy Concept Group, etc. they also have commissioned projects from below the line agencies like Contact IMC and First Tier Inc. while some of their works for independent clients includes short films and documentaries screened and awarded in CCP like "Bohe: Sons of the Waves" and "Nanay Mameng" to name a few. What I like about this group in particular is their highly cooperative and active nature in brainstorming and pitching ideas; they make sure to deliver creative fresh ideas and concepts just right for their client's needs. Despite their advertising and corporate project profile, they happen to exert double effort in highly artistic (yet low budget) projects that they believe will somewhat be a good contribution to the local art industry. People in kARITELA are more than just creative, they are artists. I did mostly independent music tracks and music videos with this team and I'm more than happy and satisfied with the output that they gave me. I especially commend their music production and audio engineers for creating high quality compositions with advanced beats and musical techniques; as well as their post-production team that can really do a lot of magical tricks in video editing and music scoring. Their prices are also very friendly especially with their fellow artists in need. You can contact 09178159752 for more details with regards to their rates. To see some of their works, you can check out their Creative Director's profile at http://marxdiego.wordpress.com

I myself had the pleasure of shooting a magazine editorial in one of Shutterspace's two studios and it was awesome. Not scrimping on quality at all, Shutterspace's roster of studio equipment comes with Profoto monolights and accessories, perhaps one of the best (and most expensive) in the world of photography equipment. A helpful staff is on-call to assist in moving around the heavy gear and to answer any sort of question when it comes to lighting techniques. As I mentioned earlier, the space has two studios - one studio is smaller, perfect for portraiture and editorial shoots. Another much bigger studio, complete with cyclorama and huge windows to let natural light in is also available for rent. It's got ample space for bigger productions like video and commercial shoots.

Our instructional modules at work need voice over audio files from really stimulating and great voice talents, and when I would need to record a script, I always turn to Pocholo Gonzales and his team at Creativoices Production.

Everyone else in the business charge an arm and a leg for studio time and for the talent's fees, but Creativoices Productions has really good packages that can help you achieve your production budget. Pocholo and his team can help you out if you need music and sound effects for your audio requirements. The agency also has a pool of voice over talents with different accents.

They're actually a mish-mash of anything computer and internet related, having an internet café and a digital design studio all in one shop. I've brochure-hoarded (one of my guilty pleasures, sue me) one time and I found out they do web design packages, as well as designs related to company branding. They can do your logos, letterheads, IDs, whatever the hell you need to look even more pro in the business world. I haven't exactly tried (or thought about purchasing) those packages though. They can cost a lot for a starting business owner after all. But I did try printing my own digital paintings there. Sometimes, there are problems with the printer calibration, but they do allow printing a sample first so you can request adjustments. It was satisfying nonetheless, and printing my digital paintings here had gotten pretty addicting. I now send them as postcards during the hoidays to friends all over the world, hah!
