Cutting Edge Productions, the local animators behind "Dayo": a full-length animated entry to the 2008 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), has recently opened its state-of-the-art animation studios, and launched official movie web site at www.dayomovie.com.

Jessie Lasaten, multi-awarded music composer and arranger for Filipino films "Anak," "Bata, Bata, Paano Ka Ginawa," among others, heads Cutting Edge as its Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Producer of "Dayo." Through the production of "Dayo," he challenges his pool of creative minds, and animators to compete on a regional scale by way of content creation.

"The Philippines has been outsourcing animation and digital works for around two decades now. It's about time that we recognize our very own animators by creating original content that is proudly Pinoy," says Lasaten.

This is exactly why "Dayo" is being produced. "Dayo" (Wanderer) is a full-length animated feature that combines paperless 2D and 3D technologies.

Its narrative centers around an 11-year old kid named Bubuy (voiced by Nash Aguas) who is out save his beloved grandparents abducted into Elementalia -- a fantasy land abounding with strange flora and fauna, and a host of popular creatures from Philippine lower mythology.

Bubuy meets Anna manananggirl (voiced by Katrina Legaspi), a hyperactive teener with a special affection for all things human -- but not of a tummy-filling kind. Both Bubuy and Anna take on a wild, will-testing, and wonderfully funny adventure all over Elementalia -- from a massive falls teeming with gravity-defying merfolk; to an awe-inspiring crystal cave that houses a swarm of colorful alitubi; to a grand old tree that's home to a motherly female kapre; and finally to a majestic mountain guarded by a big pack of hungry aswangs.

"Dayo," directed by Robert Quilao, and touted by the Animation Council of the Philippines to revolutionize the local animation industry, opens in cinemas in December 2008 along with the other seven official entries to the MMFF.

  • Hindi naman "pangit" kung western style. Mahilig lang tayo sa "anime style" from Japan dahil maraming nanunuod sa atin ng "anime" on TV at may tao ding nanunuod ng western animation on movie. Nagkataon lang na "hindi tayo sanay sa paningin" natin, dahil lahat tayo, nuong wala pang Philippine animation --- masyado na tayo na focus sa "foreign animation" kung kaya too much expectation tayo pagdating sa "animation" --- kaya natin ito!

  • stop saying it's a flop... movies aren't all about the money you know :/

    It's not a vampire. It's a viscera sucker. In Phil.folklore it's flying monster that resembles a woman who can fly w/o it's lower half. It sucks out babies/ fetuses with it's long tongue.
