The Tale of Tungkung Langit and Alunsina (Visayan Myth)

This is one of the video series made for my thesis about Philippine Creation Myths. Here, Tungkung Langit lost his wife, Alunsina, and made the Earth so that she will see it and come back home.

*******************************
It was intended to be a standalone flash file, but for some technical reason, and after a few days of fruitless tries, these programs decides to help:

- Adobe Soundbooth (c/o Adobe Suite)
- Windows Movie Maker (one of the rare instances that I *have* to use it)

Besides Macromedia Flash, this video was also aided by Adobe Photoshop (for the initial drawings).

Dubbing, Script, and Art done by Theresa Rañada
Based on the story from Damiana Eugenio's Philippine Folk Literature: the Myths.
Language: English, with supporting subtitles.

Thanks to Justine, Mami Ket, and Shin.

I like your concept. Would you like to make a better version of this? This can have real animation movements and we can also make a tagalog version. Contact me if interested. :-)

That would be nice. But right now I don't have time to improve any of the videos I did (Si Sicalac at si Sicauay vid was originally planned to use puppets).

But if ever, I'll probably do them through Flash.

May I ask why you were asking? And thanks for the comment.

Uhm...I did the visuals, and the story is based from Damiana Eugenio's stories. Check the information besides the video window.

kung minsan...hindi natin kailangang mahalin ng todo ang ating mga mito...kasi ang iba sa kanila..hindi maganda,..gender insensitive...dahil na din sa impluwensyang nasasagap nito noong panahong ginagawa ito...dapat na natin silang baguhin kahit papaano na mas malay sa kasarian...mas maganda yun version ng muling pagsasalin na nanalo ng palanca awards..please search for it at ito ang sundin...
