Cinematica in CDO


Parc Cruz... Ku Manahan.. If either of these names ring a bell, then you must have been bitten by the photography bug. These are  two of the Philippines' most respected photography giants who will be coming to CDO for a one day workshop. Dubbed as Cinematica Cagayan de Oro, Parc Cruz and Ku Manahan will be teaching Kagay-anons the essentials of lighting, photography, and post-processing, on September 12, 2010 at the Cagayan de Oro Polymedic Medical Plaza conference room.

When I saw the event's poster tagged on facebook, I immediately contacted the person who posted it, who turned out to be our resident in Obstetrics during senior clerkship in med school, Dr. Carl Tan. An obstetrician and photo enthusiast in Cagayan de Oro, Dr. Tan is co-sponsoring the event with Hundred One Events & Exhibits.


About the Mentors

Ku Manahan took the musical route to photography by shooting concerts, band profiles, and singers. He's done press photos, website photos, and album inserts for various local musicians. Capturing rock star enigma, the drama of fan hysteria, and human interactions in events that he covers are his melodious ways of expressing the beauty of music through the still and silent nature of excellent photos.

Parc Cruz has come a long way from experimenting and exploration, and defying conventions in photography. A self-taught master lensman, his inclination to the arts and movies earned himself a distinct brand of emotionally powerful and cinematic photos. Each shot reflects his visions of the movies playing in his genius head.

Music and movies soulfully translated into beautiful images.. what more can a photography student ask for? When these two are offering the rare chance to teach you the tricks of the trade, grab it! Even CDO gurus like Dustein Sibug are recommending  this workshop to everyone interested in photography.
