00:00This is true. 300 pesos a day as an extra.
00:04Now you're part of a star cinema film acting on the big screen.
00:07Was there a moment on set when you remember the version of yourself in real life that some dreams that
00:12once felt like they were never mine are now finally yours?
00:17Enter some like Mayranod. Pwede nang makara.
00:21Yes. Thank you, Ms. Laika, for being my inspiration.
00:24Siya talaga ang aking guiding star, my true north, Ms. Laika.
00:28Yes, that is true. I used to do some extra before when I was much younger.
00:33Kaya nga kwento kay Karen, nang sinasabi na love you. Siya sabi ko, nabiyo nang pag-ips ako.
00:38Yan ang bumuhay sa akin nung high school. I was much younger.
00:41And I always, I was always in the background.
00:45So parang I never saw myself as someone that would like take space like on screen and will be seen
00:50by people and be heard by people and be watched by people.
00:53So I never saw myself as that.
00:55Pero, having go through a lot of, having been through a lot of seasons, I've learned a lot.
01:00And yes, I can say that I'm living the dream now.
01:03It's really the dream. Imagine being on their Star Cinema directed by their Kathy Garcia-Sampana.
01:09A lot of people would kill for this role, for this job, for this opportunity.
01:13And it was handed to me. So I was super, super grateful for it.
01:16But also, with that kind of opportunity came also the responsibility to make sure that you are really fit for
01:23what your, your being, your role and what is being asked of you.
01:29So parang I had to also make sure that the gift that was given to me, even though it was
01:34handed to me, even though it was offered to me, I had to make sure that I'm worthy of it.
01:39But yes, I'm so grateful for the opportunity. I'm so happy I've done this film because I was humbled.
01:48I'm not used to spaces wherein I feel like a newbie because I used to do things that I'm very
01:54familiar with.
01:55I used to do a lot of things in my own comfort zone and I decided to step out of
02:00that and be open to learnings, be open to new opportunities.
02:04And I humbled myself down because then I realized how hard it really is to do this.
02:11It's really a craft. You really have to put your heart and your mind into it.
02:15You really have to think na ang ginagawa mo is not just for yourself. You are carrying a lot more
02:21responsibility because you are working with a production.
02:24You're working with a lot of people. You're working with actors, with directors, with writers.
02:29So you have to make sure that the space that you're getting in is the space that you deserve to
02:34be in.
02:35Well, I think about that.
