#JOWABLE, what makes it great?
22 August 2020
Considering it's budget.

#JOWABLE's production is given an entry level budget considering the Philippines' film making standards for this masterpiece is writer and director Darryl Yap's debut. With the budget and it's blockbuster gross that surpassed the 100 million peso mark is one of the inevitable signs that this movie is not just a hit, but a great one.



The cinematography and editing

Through the lens of Director of Photography, Rain Yamson the story received a visual therapy that will give you the right feels of the film. After days of shooting, it's time for Editor, Vincent Asis to take this art piece come to life one step closer with his years of editing experience. So much more to tell about it such as musical scoring and other elements that made it entirely perfect. As a wrap, DOP Rain Yamson and Editor Vincent Asis together with Director Darryl Yap's blessing, undeniably did one great job.



The backbone of the film.

The story that originated from a viral short film on social media, from your mobile screen to the silver screen.

For sure, Viva Films undoubtedly trusted Darryl Yap up until now that his vision came to life. Years of hard work and dedication to the arts made this dream came to it's truthfulness.

The very thing that sets this film apart is the writer and director's bold, rare, truthful and brave approach and determination to tell untold stories the way they are supposed to be told-no sugar coating, no eye candies and one of my personal favorite, an ending that doesn't required to be twisted just to be a happy.

Instead it was given a treatment that will leave you contemplating your life right after the moment you left the cinema's chair.

#JOWABLE The Movie's backbone,

Darryl Yap, one of the greatest minds in the Philippine Film Industry today.
