FINE arts students from the University of the Philippines bagged the top prize
in a recent Sony Ericsson competition for the best viral video, beating contest
ants from Thailand, India, Singapore, and Indonesia.
A copy of the winning Filipino group's video is currently viewable on YouTube.
The group's director, Jaime Quiano, gathered nine of his friends and classmates
to compete in the local contest in which they had to present a storyboard idea
to competition organizer Sony Ericsson. The other members are Clarence Santos,
Lilli Beth Gelvezon, Cathlene Samiano, Pocholo De Villa, Marius Talampas, Emme
nuel Carandang, Frank Magalona, and Joseph Torrijos.
The studnets won $5,000 in cash for the competition. They had previously won an
other $2,000 in December 2007 for a local competition that decided who would re
present the Philippines at the Asia-wide level.
The group shot their video at a dimly lit street in the Escolta district in dow
ntown Manila.
The clip involves a big, balding bully who forcibly takes a "Shake Pop" bottle
from a child.
Unfortunately, the bully shakes the bottle too much, causing it to burst and kn
ocking him off his feet. The child then draws a chalk line around the knocked-d
own bully before walking away.
