MEGA Sardines Presents FIRST DAY

I am impressed, it looks like MEGA Sardines is at it again. 

 With the success of their first two viral videos called “Adulting” and “Tipidity”, they recently came out with another short film called "First Day", a play on one of the most pivotal moments in your life, your first job. Do you still remember that day? 

 Director Chris Cahilig puts in a little dash of romance as character Joseph played by Jindric Macapagal tries to make it big in Metro Manila. He then finds himself smitten over coffee breaks, lunch outs, with an angelic ward as he enjoys every moment with comfort food so close to Filipinos, over a can or two of what could cause #MegaGandaAngBuhay to happen.

This short film was made through the efforts of Tiu Lim Foundation (executive producer), Rommel Sales (cinematography), Yuji Gonzales (screenplay), Jegs Morales (offline editor), Kenneth Amparo (online editor), Melai Entuna (line producer), Clark Lopez (assistant director), Kat Salinas (sound design), Richard Gonzales (scoring), Det Moldera (accounts manager), Yani Bautista (production manager) and Johanna Evangelista (production coordinator). 

 If you would like to see “First Day”, it can now be viewed at MEGA’s official Facebook page facebook.com/officialmegasardines and their YouTube channel (just search Mega Global). Currently, “Tipidity” and “Adulting” has almost 3 million views on YouTube. You may also watch these short films through MEGA Sardines’ official FB page too. 

Thanks to Mega Global Corporation for doing this. As you may well know, they are also the manufacturer of MEGA Sardines, one of the country's freshest sardines packed 12 hours from catching to canning. You can get it in easy open cans and pouch forms. I love their Spicy version personally for breakfast. 

 Now go watch it. You'll love how the story would turn out.

The MEGA Sardines' "Adulting" Viral Video

If you're a mushy person like me, I'm sure you've seen this on Facebook lately. MEGA Sardines has been doing videos like Tipidity and this next one called Adulting so you get to touch with emotions you probably haven't seen in quite a while.

Honestly when a friend shared this on his timeline, I admit I was just curious at first. The veteran character actress Ruby Ruiz in it had me going but once the story was laid out, I got hooked. Let me warn you because this will play with your feelings, starting the most important person in your life, your Mom. I guess this stemmed from our busy lives, our yearning to be independent, but forget that our parents only want the best for us, to keep us safe from harm, and ultimately to spend treasured time - hopefully not to waste and become memories.

I don't wanna spoil things so here, come and watch it!

“Adulting” was produced by Tiu Lim Foundation, Directed by Chris Cahilig, Rommel Sales (cinematography), Yuji Gonzales (screenplay), Alec Figuracion (offline editor), Kenneth Amparo (online editor), Melai Entuna (line producer), Clark Lopez (assistant director), Kat Salinas (sound design), Richard Gonzales (scoring), Yani Bautista (production manager) and Johanna Evangelista (production coordinator). “Adulting” was also shot on location at Bria Homes in Pampanga.

This is part of MEGA Sardines #MegaGandaAngBuhay web series and I can't wait to see how you would react to this and the last one. I hope you learn something from this too because your parents would probably appreciate if you spend time with them even more.

MEGA Sardines Does Touching #MegaGandaAngBuhay Shorts

Award winning Director and PR Maven Chris Cahilig just came out with a new short film called “Tipidity” for household brand Mega Sardines as they introduce #MegaGandaAngBuhay. They are probably going to do a few but I like this slice of life pov, it reminds us how we all take effort to have a hearty meal even in a very quaint simple setting. I bet most of you probably have a can of sardines in your pantry, it’s also probably one of the basics you often get at the grocery counter. Even at that price point, it gives you comfort, a trait that spanned generations and I also bet, you still do it now.

“Tipidity” talks about a husband and wife, newlyweds who go through hardships of life, their economic status, showcases the resilience of the Filipino family. Headlined by indie actors Karl Medina and Kia Del Rosario who in this film, albeit industrious in their careers - suddenly are met with financial griefs. It tried and tested their marriage in so many ways, but in the end, will they still be together? Will they weather through these problems? Or suffer the fate of tons of relationships, who fail unfortunately?

They knew they had to tighten their belt, they knew they had to make sacrifices, which a lot of people would be able to relate, more so now with the high inflation rates.

We don’t want to be political, so make sure you see this Tipidity installment on Mega Sardines Facebook page and assets, you’ll also love the next ones, so stay tuned!

There will be more stories soon!

Maine Mendoza aka Yaya Dub for 555 Sardines

It looks like the #KalyeSerye is getting better and better with the way things are going with the courting of Alden Richards and Yaya Dub Maine Mendoza. 

This afternoon though, we found out about her two loves. Yes, Maine Mendoza just came out of a new commercial again this time with 555 Sardines! She wasn't choosing between two men, but the thing that had her thinking was what to have between two lovely cans of Sardines.

Let's watch it here!

In the new 555 Sardines TV commercial, Maine now is split in choosing her new found love.. Whether she goes for the classic 555 Sardines in Tomato Sauce (one of my personal favorites too) or the newer lovely flavored 555 Fried Sardines. Both are perfect with white rice and those small drinking sessions. Best of all, it's affordable. They chose Maine specifically because she's humble, attractive and funny. They also know that this persona has connected with the mass audiences and sees she's the perfect endorser to showcase their brand's top two variants!

Which one do you think Maine should choose?

Mega Global: Enriching Filipino Lives, One Can at a Time

Mega Global (photo credits to Mega Global FB page and not mine).

This June, a company committed to deliver relevant, up to date and quality products is celebrating their 40th year anniversary. You probably have one or more of their canned merchandise in your home right now but half awake thinking they actually were the ones to manufacture it. Mega Global Corporation, the one who makes Mega Sardines, Mega Creations, Valley Farm and Oh My Ulam! brand of products just struck ruby this 2015 and they're letting you know how much they appreciate your continued patronage of their food products which is distributed here and elsewhere in the world.

Mega Sardines is now in an easy open can. This means, when you go out and travel with the people you love, you don't have to bring a can opener to enjoy it. It's sweet as the sauce is made of ripe tomatoes. This is just one of the things Mega Global produces in their plant. They happen to have the means to can the fish within a 12 hour process. From the sea to the can, unbelievable right?

Mega Global also thought that you should enjoy other things aside from Sardines. They made other varieties like Mega Creations in Natural Oil and Spanish Style. The one in Natural Oil is light, perfect for filling hot bread. My personal favorite is Spanish style, being a person with Spanish lineage makes me naturally love things this hot. Confession, I had 2 cups of rice with it! Super good!

Keeping with the times, Mega Global also has Valley Farm which is a line of food products like luncheon meat. They have it in Tocino Style without making it expensive like the other brands we know. They also encourage to mix this up with other things so you can create other dishes, a feat that makes you decide countless things to make with a single can. See the possibilities? Exactly.

For the fast lifestyle, there's "Oh my Ulam!" which you can easily have with hot white rice. I can even imagine it now. Pork cutlets in adobo flavor, or lechon paksiw that's truly legit, you can even serve this breakfast, lunch or dinner and go away with it. There's no need for cooking too so you save precious time. I tried this the other day and I must say, it changed the way I look at canned food. It doesn't have to be expensive, it just have to be as special as this! 

You see, Mega Global doesn't just manufacture food products and can them... they actually change the way we see food getting preserved, served in meals and have the convenience of just opening a can instead of preparing the whole enchilada. It's convenient, it's fresh, and can save lives in tough times. Mega Global brings in quality that Filipinos here and abroad only deserve, and they've been doing it all these years. It is my wish that in the 40 years that they've been here, they continue to innovate and make us get the best food products in the market, more success in the coming years as they enrich our lives, one can at a time. 

I'll be in your celebration this week, hope to see the people behind this brand in June!
