Level Up Content Creation with the AKASO 360 Camera

Content creation has certainly gone miles and bounds than what it was a few decades ago. The eve of short form videos has certainly made it clear that you need to get the attention of every person in the first 3 seconds or they wouldn't see the video at all. After scrolling up for hours, they need something that would make them stay, so making that decision to create a different view is essential. That's where the AKASO 360° Camera comes in, and I'm so glad I got to try it!

Here's our unboxing video:

While I'm no novice at this, I'm super excited about shooting content at a 360 degree angle. That is one device, capable of shooting your surroundings and can be edited as different clips in one file. Imagine the applications of this especially when there's a press conference where people are all around the venue. One side had executives, one side had the media and the last one are the speakers. This is what I did with the event I covered in Las Pinas:

We also showed how a simple indoor shot can be done differently. I took it shopping and the selfie stick didn't appear on the video. Plus you are doing this at 5.7K which means you can use it for digital film, or simply export it to lower resolution if you are just doing it for social media. You don't have to literally fly to get a creative shot done because you've got tons of viewpoints you can play around with. 

For editing, you can use the AKASO 360 app which you can download off the Google Playstore to utilize the templates, or do your own before exporting it. You can use a third party video editor to combine shots (which I've been doing legibly these days so you get short and long form videos made in a jiffy.

I'm certainly loving it because we get a lot of fun doing it with celebrities after the press conferences we recently covered. Check out love team JM IBARRA and FYANG SMITH on this clip!

This is just the tip of the iceberg of what you can do with the AKASO 360° Camera. You can purchase this from the popular shopping platforms and get more information from the AKASO Philippines social channels.

I don't think I should even convince you right?! Go level up your content creation game with the AKASO 360 Camera!

Level Up Content Creation with AKASO Action Cameras

I've been raring to find something that could up my content creation journey and yes, a 360 degree camera would gladly fit. It's been on my bucket list lately so it wouldn't be just the run of the mill interviews that I'd have but rather a way to show how we'd get there in a fun way. AKASO has got a line of action cameras in their arsenal that would fit any lifestyle that you have and they recently announced their expansion in the Philippines with the help of Siklab Spark Corporation (who's also going to have exclusive rights to distribute it in the country!)

At the event, they had the executives re-introduce the various devices and how it could take videos and content creation to another level plus a few more reasons on why one should consider an AKASO 360 action camera.

Here's what happened on video:

If you are keen to have one, they've got really good promos on TikTok Shop, Shopee and Lazada. It costs Php 12,288 on TikTok, also offered for Php 11,888 on Snopee, and Php 12,188 on Lazada. Make sure to use all the available vouchers to get it. They are also offering the AKASO V50 X for Php 6,988, and have it even lower on the same platform. Same goes with the AKASO EK7000 which you can get less than 4K with available vouchers. I think it's time you consider getting one. If that ain't enough, following them on these platforms would also get you the chance to win on October 22. They'll announce the winners 8pm that day. Make sure you also follow their social channels to know more of these products and future promos they plan to implement, because they've got plans to do so!

Can't wait to take it out for a spin today! It's time we take our shots to another level!

Ataydes in MIPCOM Cannes for Cattleya Killer

Shining brightly in the French Riviera are the Ataydes. Businessman Art Atayde, Award Winning Actress and iconic Sylvia Sanchez, the young and stunning actress Ria Atayde and Asian Academy Creative Awards Best Actor and Congressman Arjo Atayde took the trip to France for the international premiere of CATTLEYA KILLER slated today October 19 at 10:45AM in the Palais Auditorium. For those who don't know, Marché International des Programmes de Communication is known as the largest content market in the world wherein it would be screened by an international audience and decision makers to connect with partners for global distribution.   

The story delves on a slew of crimes committed in Manila in the late 90's dine by a copycat serial killer. The series is directed by Dan Villegas and produced by ABS-CBN International Productions in cooperation with the Atayde's Nathan Studios Inc. The latter also produced Ice Seguerra's recent concert "Becoming Ice" in celebration of her 35th anniversary. Cattleya Killer is just one of many that they plan to show in different territories by next year together with several projects they already have in the pipeline. The event was also graced by ABS-CBN International Productions and Co-Production head Ruel S. Bayani.

Gorgeous Ria Atayde

Aside from the Best Actor award Arjo won in 2020,  he's working very hard representing District 1 in Quezon City and is pushing for the approval of HB 457 to make QC the Film and TV Arts Capital of the country. He is also doing HB 459 which posts stricter occupational safety standards for movie and TV workers. I don't know how you would call this, I think this is clearly passion for the arts. I am extremely proud of what they have accomplished and seeing them in the international stage is what dreams are made of. I can't wait for what the future holds for the other series and films they plan to do. By the looks of it, the future looks bright!
