Well done, but too short. Why not combine this with your "A Day Away: Kalibo" video? The quality of your work is excellent. No silliness or wisecracks or stuffing your face with food. Of course, walking shots are difficult without a Steadycam. We look forward to more of your travel vids. My wife and I spend several weeks in Aklan each year, mostly in Malay.

Thanks for the feedback. The "A Day Away" series is just that.... what we do in a single day. Since we spent two days at the festival, we thought it should have its own video.

Good job Steve! i think you need to see the other festivals of our country. they are just as historical and full of fun as the Ati-Atihan of Iloilo. See the Panagbenga of Baguio, the Kadayawan of Davao, Pahiyas of Quezon, Masskara Festival, Pamulinawen of Ilocos and more! Thanks for featuring this! You must have enjoyed the fun and warmness of the Filipino people! God bless you!

you leave out key details. The Malays painted themselves black and dressed up in tribal costumes so that they would look more like the Atis. It was a celebration of the Atis, giving them thanks for letting them have the island. The religious part was just added later, but it's not really a religious festival. It's a celebration of blackness
