Presenting our dear performance as Team GRC.
Tinig-tugan is loosely based from the words:
Tinig - Voice
Tugtugan - Beat/Rhythm/Sound
The video is in Filipino but English subtitle is available. :)
In the 1st to 2nd week of December, we are to participate in the Got Talent Season 2.
Last year it's an individual competition only. But this year, it will be a group presentation competing with other company departments.
I just want to help out. Me, and 2 friends volunteered. And guess what, nobody else volunteered so we happened to become the organizers/managers/coordinators for this performance. Well okay, game on!
There was a lot of work. Coordinating over 500 people, 3 different shifts and different teams were a pain. Added difficulty is that most people are shy. It was very hard to get participants as performers and even for backup support. Then comes the props, costumes, photo shoots, videos, logistics, multimedia presentation, meal preparation, and of course schedule and practices.
Fast forward, The screenplay is ready, we got the members and are busy practicing almost every day and escaping work (more like deferring work) for later.
The theme were a rural setting. About the life of Angeline and the people from her Barangay. A talented girl, and also the people were talented too.

It was a really fun performance. There were lots of cheers. Our presentation is the most different.We are the first performer. We did it, have fun, and finished successfully. We are very happy. :)

Of course I did expect us to be the champion. But we did not make it. We gave the judges a hard time. Well that's life. Anyways we were still happy. Other people were telling us to that it should have been us. In our hearts and theirs, we are the champion.

This performance is not just for us aiming to win. It is for our beneficiary, the Cubao Kalakal Kids. A certain amount will be donated to the kids. I'm really glad that since we placed high, and with bigger prize, we were able to give them a higher donation.

I'll never forget that feeling and experience. For next year, if ever a similar contest will be conducted, i'll gladly help again. I hope I get to work with the same people, and new ones. And hope that time, we will be the champion. :)
