Music Video - That's Our Goal
The Event:
Tyne's birthday
The Output:
First we recorded our voices singing our revised version of Shayne Ward's "That's Our Goal" then we mounted my camera on one of the pipes near the ceiling (thanks to my wonderful spider tripod, my best investment ever) and got a long shot of us dancing and lip-synching to our own recording. Then I imported everything to iMovie, detached the audio of the first recording, then overlapped it with the second video. Then I cut up the video into several parts and edited the Ken Burns to make the footage zoom in, out, sideways, etc.
My Role:

That's Our Goal
You know where we come from (Zamboanga)
You know our story
You know why were standing here
Tonight
Please don't laugh
Although we look funny
Were here for you
Just sit tight
Well we know weve acted foolish
But we promise you theres more
We've finally found that something
Worth performing for
We are here to say we love you
We are here to say we care
Were here to say were ready
That we've finally thought of you
We're not here to let your love go
Were not giving up, dear Tyne
Were here to greet you happy birthday
That's our goal
Please don't cry
We know were funny
We can't eat without you
Drink without you
Sing without you
Well I know weve acted foolish
But we promise you theres more
Theres more

Hoy hoy, Romi
Naaalala mo pa ba
Nong tayo'y nagsasama?
Hoy hoy, Rosa
Naaalala mo pa ba
Ang iyong mga sinabi nung POT ko’y mababa ?
Sabi mo, "lahat ng problema'y kayang lampasan,
Basta't tayo'y magkasama, at nag-pipicturan!"
Hoy hoy, Roma
Naaalala mo pa ba
Nung nagdouble payment tayo kasi tatanga-tanga (TANGA!)
Hoy hoy, Pepita
Naaalala mo pa ba
Nung ako’y napagalitan ng contact ko from Korea?
Mangiyak-ngiyak na'ko pero sabi mo ay "Okay lang yan!
Basta't tayo'y nagsasama, at nag-kakantahan!"
Kaya naman ako bilib sa iyo
Kasi parang napakacool mo.
Lahat ng problema ay kaya mong tawanan
Basta't mayroong kabarkada at may Thom Sumagang!
(Instruments playing)
Hoy hoy, Rolie
Naaalala mo pa ba
Nung araw na nagbabye ako from P&G?
Hoy hoy, Rosie
Naaalala mo pa ba
Nung ika'y yumakap sa'kin at tayo’y umiiyak...
Tapos pagkatapos no'n, kay tagal kong nawala.
Nagulat na lang ako nung narinig ko ang balita.
Akala ko pa naman na forever dyan ka na,
Nalaman ko na lang na ikaw pala’y nagresign na...
Hoy Mommy
Nasaan ka man, siguradong happy ka, dahil ang anak mo’y andyan
Hoy Osang
Nasaan ka man, siguradong hindi ka namin malilimutan
Hoy Roma Rosa Pepita
Hoy Romilie Rosalie Ronalie
Hoy hoy, Mylene

You had the right job
At the wrong time
Guess we always knew inside
We wouldn't have you for a long time
Those dreams of yours
Are shining in chocolate stores
And if they're calling you away
We have no right to make you stay
But somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
We know that heart of yours
will come to see
That you belong with AP
Sometimes goodbyes are not forever
It doesn't matter if you're gone
We still believe in us together
We understand more than you think we can
You have to go out on your own
So you can find your way back home (to India)
And somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours
will come to see
That you belong with AP
Letting go is just another way to say
We'll always love you so
You had the right job
At the wrong time
Maybe we've only just begun
Maybe the best is yet to come
Cause somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesn't really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours
will come to see
That you belong

Joel Ko
The Event:
Joel is leaving AP (Accounts Payable) and moving to another department. Jon has also done the same very recently, thus the reference to him in the song.
The Output:
Live performance of the song Joel Ko, personalized from the song Pare Ko.
My Role:
Lyrics Writer
Singer
Joel Ko
O AP ko meron tayong problema
Wag mong sabihing na naman
Iiwan tayo ng boss na hunk at gwapo
Hindi na mapipigilan
Wag na nating idaan sa maBOTEng usapan
Lalo lang madaragdagan ang sakit ng ulo
at bilbil sa tiyan
O kay sarap sya'y naging boss at PR man
Napuno tayo ng pag-asa
Yun pala hanggang dun lang ang kaya
Akala ko ay pwede pa
[Refrain:]
Masakit mang isipin
Kailangang tanggapin
Kung kelan ka naging seryoso
Saka ka niya lilisanin
[Chorus:]
O, diyos ko
Ano ba naman ito
Di ba umalis si Jon
Ngayon si Joel naman
Pinaasa nila tayo
Letseng P&G to
O diyos ko ano ba naman ito
Sabi niya ayaw niya muna mag-GBS
Dehins ako naniwala
Di nagtagal nagkaoffer ang MDO
Kulang na lang ay sagot niya
At ayun tinanggap nya
Sabi nya babalik sya
Hanggang kelan maghihintay
Ako ay magreresign na
Pero minamahal ko siya
Di biro T.L. ako sa kanya
Alam kong nababaduyan ka na sa mga sinasabi ko
Pero sana naman ay maintindihan mo
O Joel ko meron ka bang maipapayo
Kung wala ay okey lang
Kailangan lang ay ang iyong pakikiramay
Andito ka ay ayos na
[Repeat refrain and chorus]

Always Be Your Babies

Music video starring his direct reports or "babies" lyp-synching to the personalized version of the song Always Be My Baby.
My Role:
Lyrics Writer
Always Be Your Babies
We were as one team for a moment in time.
And it seemed everlasting that you would always be ours.
Now you want to be free, so we're letting you fly,
'cause we know in our hearts, boss, our love will never die.
You'll always be a part of AP.
We're part of you indefinitely.
Boy, don't you know you can't escape us.
Ooh Joel, cause we'll always be your babies.
And we'll linger on.
Time can't erase a feeling this strong.
No way you're ever gonna shake us.
Ooh Joel, 'cause we'll always be your babies.
We ain't gonna cry, no, and we won't beg you to stay.
If you're determined to leave boss,
We will not stand in your way.
But inevitably you'll be back again,
'cause you know in your heart, boss, our love will never end.
(chorus)
We know that you'll be back, boy,
when your days and your nights get a little bit boring.
We know that you'll be right back, bossing.
Joel, believe us, it's only a matter of time.

Triple Serenade
The Event:
Triple birthday celebration
The Output:
A serenade with the song Harana customized for the celebrants. Harana is tagalog for serenade.
My Role:
Lyrics Writer
Singer
Uso pa ba ang harana?
Marahil ikaw ay nagtataka
Sino ba 'tong mukhang churva?
Nagkandarapa sa pagkanta
At nasisintunado sa kaba
Meron pang dalang mga rosas suot nama'y
Dress na kupas
At nariyan pa ang barkada
Makikikain ng Bugong sa awiting daig pa minus one at sing along
Puno ang ceiling ng bituin
At kay lamig pa ng building
Sa'yong tingin akoy nakecrazy baby
At sa awitin kong ito
Sana'y maibigan mo
Ibubuhos ko ang buong puso ko
Sa isang munting harana para sayo
Hindi ba't parang isang movie
Isang pelikulang romantic comedy
Hindi ba't ikaw ang bidang artista at ako ay iyong leading-girl
Sa istoryang nagwawakas sa pagibig - wish mo lang!
Puno ang ceiling ng bituin
At kay lamig pa ng building
Sa'yong tingin akoy nakecrazy baby
At sa awitin kong ito
Sana'y maibigan mo
Ibubuhos ko ang buong puso ko
Sa isang munting harana para sayo
Puno ang ceiling ng bituin
At kay lamig pa ng building
Sa'yong tingin akoy nakecrazy baby
At sa awitin kong ito
