Meralco Theater, Pasig City
Stage and lights design for the Still Madz About Love Here and Now Benefit concert with the Philippine Madrigal Singers and Jose Mari Chan. Hindi ito ang actual lights, emergency lights ang tawag nila dito. Pero ito ang actual na arrangement ng chairs, syempre part lang ang kinuhaan ko ng photo para may dating.

Thank you Kuya Manny Castilla and the rest of the lighting team who helped me in setting up everything.

To Kuya Manny Castilla, I owe you everything that I learned behind the lights console. I pray that God will provide us with more avenues to work together. I have never felt the craving for lights design learning until the last two concerts we had with Madz at the Meralco theater.

To everyone who had participated in the pre-production and production phases, God bless you all! You did a great job.

Mia, thank you so much for this opportunity, likewise Loren whom if without, I wouldn't have become a part of this project. I owe you two big time. Hanggang sa susunod na concert. I love you guys! :)

Maan, salamat sa mga kwento, sa mga bonding moments habang inaasikaso ang ilang bagay sa logistics, at sa pasensya. Haha. Remember that I have always been praying for you and you-know-who. HUG. Next time, kapag hindi na ako yung masyadong needy, maihahatid na kita sa ParaƱaque, hindi na lang sa SM Makati. Haha!

To Trish, hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero may takot factor ako sa'yo. Haha! I just pray na hindi ito dahil sa age gap, dahil alam kong magagalit ka. Haha! Anyway, maraming salamat sa pagiging 'Ate' figure (at least for me). I hope to work with you more, cheers para sa mga susunod pang events! :)

To Weng, para sa kaisa-isang one-on-one natin sa alumni living room habang naghihintay sa ibang people na dumating para sa meeting. I will never forget, "Wag ka nang bumalik sa call center." - Weng, 2010. Haha!

Carls, thank you for the hardwork sa marketing. Wala pa akong masyadong experience sa sales and marketing as far as I can remember, but I know for a fact na mahirap siyang gawin. Salamat sa pagtitiyaga at suporta sa team. :) God bless! :) Hanggang sa susunod na event. :)

Chai, sana may laptop na steno ang gamit para realtime ang pag-type mo ng notes everytime na may meeting. Thanks for always giving us updates/sending us updates. Thanks for the hardwork and patience. Until sa susunod na concert. :)

Faye, mabait na bata.Sana magkaroon pa tayo ng maraming opportunities to work with each other at si Bro na ang bahala dun. Salamat sa lahat ng ginawa mo para sa concert. :)

Viory, sana kasing galing mo ako sa Math. Haha! Apir! Salamat sa patience sa pag-compute ng projected ticket sales, at sa kung anupaman ang binilang mo. Haha! Mahusay!

Loren, 'save the best for the last' ang sabi nga. Dahil sa'yo nandito ako. Maraming salamat. Sana college palang naging close na tayo. :) Para tuloy gusto kong balikan ang college days natin. Yikeee. Haha! Anyway, wala tayong naging bonding time masyado, hindi naman natin pwedeng isisi ang pagiging malayo ng Bulacan sa Pasig. Alam mo na. Haha! I pray na maraming opportunity for career development ang mag-open para sa atin, sa'yo lalo na. And 'wag ka sana magsawa na i-tap ang iba nating batchmates, kahit na yung iba turn down agad. God bless! Hanggang sa susunod. Kapag ikinasal ka na pala, ako videographer mo ha. Haha!

To the rest, CONGRATULATIONS! CHEERS! Until next time! :)

God bless everyone! :)
