APAT NA TAON SA LIKOD AT HARAP NG LENSE ๐ŸŽฌ

Apat na taon na ang lumipas mula nang sinimulan nating buksan ang lente para sa mga tinig na madalas ay nasa gilid lamang ng kuwadro. Sa bawat taon, patuloy nating pinipiling matuto at magbahagi sa sining ng pelikula kahit kailanman ay hindi naging madali ang magsimula.

Four years in, the WVSU Film Society continues to serve as an avenue for students to practice the craft of cinema. Beyond the films weโ€™ve set into motion, our greatest work has always been the space we build. From nurturing young minds through workshops, creative exchanges, industry mentorships, and real opportunities for collaboration.

From the pioneer batch who started it all, to the members keeping the fire alive today, this organization exists because people chose to keep the culture of filmmaking breathing.

Apat na taon ng paghubog at paglikha, at marami pang eksenang bubuuin.

Buhayin ang kwento ng bayan. ๐ŸŽž

Coffee cups line the study tables. Highlighters bleed through thick reviewer pages. TAGA-WEST STUDENTS sit surrounded by open laptops, eyes fixed on their notes as the clock ticks down.

They take a deep breath. Close their eyes. Lock in.

No plot armor neededโ€”youโ€™ve put in the work. ๐ŸŽฌโ˜•๏ธ

To everyone running on iced coffee, highlight-stained reviewers, and sheer determination: take a deep breath and trust your prep.

Lock in, finish strong, and letโ€™s get back to the main feature. Good luck on your Midterm Exams, Taga-West! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

Two films from West Visayas State University community are set to take the screen at the University of the Philippines Visayasโ€™ CineMatahum, bringing local stories and perspectives to the regionโ€™s annual celebration of Visayan cinema.

The documentary previously won Best Documentary Film at the Patubas Documentary Film Festival and was recently aired on Knowledge Channel.

The film now reaches the screens of CineMatahum under the ๐—–๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—•๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜„๐—ฎ (https://www.facebook.com/share/18WjTF6rVA/) category, a non-competitive film screening that showcases works by community-based filmmakers and highlights stories rooted in collective experiences and local realities.

Meanwhile, ๐—”๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ, directed by Timothy James Sampang, makes its way to CineMatahum after previously competing in WVSU University Days 2026. The film earned multiple awards during the event, including the coveted Best Picture award.

The film is under the ๐—–๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—•๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ผ (https://www.facebook.com/share/1Deca2GeU9/) category, which brings together student filmmakers from across Western Visayas.
This category features student films that capture the voices, stories and narratives of communities that shaped them.

From community-based documentaries to student-made films, the selection of Kalay-ohan kang Kalayohan and Amar celebrates the growing presence of WVSU filmmakers in the regional film scene.

This year, CineMatahum will be held on:

Last August 28, the WVSU Film Society officers gathered at Taohay Center for a Sensitivity Training session led by WVSU-COC alumnus, Jan Lyod Abellano.

Treating organizational leadership like a strategic card game, the session focused on purposeful leadershipโ€”guiding the team to understand member capacities, embrace individual roles, and strengthen collaboration.

It served as a grounding first step toward leading with shared purpose for the upcoming academic year.๐ŸŽฌ
