Ang pinakamalaki at pinaka-intensive na artista search sa bansa ay magsisimula na sa pagbubukas ng Artista Academy ng TV5 ngayong July 30. Ang Artista Academy ang nag-iisang reality-based talent competition sa Pilipinas na nagbibigay ng totoong artista training mula sa isang lehitimong school of television arts. Labing-anim na finalists na may edad 16 hanggang 22 ang magpapaligsahan para sa P20 Million na total prizes at para sa karangalang maitanghal bilang Best Actor at Best Actress ng Artista Academy.

Sa pangunguna ng Artista Academy hosts na sina Cesar Montano at Marvin Agustin, masusundan ng mga manonood ang journey ng mapipiling 16 finalists na sasailalim sa extensive curriculum-based training sa Asian Academy of Television Arts (AATA) para mahasa sa pag-arte at maging certified professional actors na handang gumawa ng kanilang sariling pangalan sa industriya.

Mabibigyan ng full scholarship sa AATA ang 16 Artista Academy finalists at sasailalim sila sa komprohensibong training mula sa pinakamagagaling sa industriya, kabilang ang multi-awarded director na si Joel Lamangan, ang music master na si Louie Ocampo, ang dance guru na si Georcelle Dapat of G Force, at ilan pa sa mga tinitingala at ginagalang na TV professionals at celebrities sa bansa.

Ang acclaimed film and TV director na si Mac Alejandre na siya ring head ng TV5 Talent Center ang director ng Artista Academy. Makakatrabaho niya ang kilalang Entertainment executive at Head ng AATA na si Wilma Galvante

Bukod sa P20 Million total prizes na mapapanalunan ng Artista Academy Best Actor at Best Actress, bibigyan din sila ng TV5 ng lead roles sa isang teleserye. Hindi lamang sila makakakuha ng tamang acting training mula sa AATA para maging karapat-dapat na future stars ng industriya, sila rin ang ituturing na pinakamayaman sa lahat ng mga naging winner sa kasaysayan ng mga talent search sa bansa.

Ang Artista Academy hosts na sina Cesar Montano at Marvin Agustin ay makakasama ng 16 finalists sa kanilang pag-abot sa kanilang pangarap. Bilang Live Exam Presenter, mapapanood si Cesar tuwing Sabado ng gabi bilang host ng live performance night ng programa.

Mapapanood din bilang Live Exam critics tuwing Sabado ng gabi ang Grand Slam Actress na si Lorna Tolentino at ang kilalang actress-host na si Gelli De Belen.

Mapapanood ang Artista Academy simula ngayong July 30, 930PM sa TV5!

TV5 achieves international goal for Nandito Ako

Tweet

What seems to be a simple move for TV5 to boost its popularity in the Philippines turns out to have a bigger objective. By bringing over American Idol sensation David Archuleta to star in its primetime series Nandito Ako, TV5 has been successful in its aim to tap a global market as proven by the tremendous popularity the show has gained in different countries since it premiered last February 20.

Nandito Ako and other Nandito Ako-related phrases and hashtags (i.e., “Oh My Josh Bradley,” “Watch Nandito Ako Marathon,” “David Archuleta in Bunny Suit,” “Run Josh Bradley Run,” “Nandito Ako Week 2,” “David Archuleta is Josh Bradley,” among others) have been consistently figuring every night in Twitter trending topics not only in the Philippines but also worldwide. The show has also ranked high in Twitter trending topics in different countries such as Malaysia, Vietnam as well as in various states in the US. Further, David Archuleta’s first drama venture via Nandito Ako landed on the pages of international newspapers, magazines and online sites.

With TV5’s international expansion through Pilipinas Global Network (PGN), Nandito Ako has proven to be an effective vehicle in attracting potential viewers and supporters worldwide. Due to Nandito Ako’s international popularity, TV5 now has a following of Filipinos overseas as well as non-Filipinos who were initially David Archuleta fans but have learned to love the show and its cast.

The move also paved the way for Filipino artists, particularly home-grown TV5 talents Jasmine Curtis-Smith and Eula Caballero, to be recognized in the international scene.

Now on its third week, Nandito Ako keeps viewers hooked with its relatable and compelling story. In his attempt to find his long lost mother, Josh Bradley (David Archuleta) and Anya (Jasmine Curtis-Smith) end up in a coastal province far from Manila. Here, they are forced to be together all the time despite their mutual dislike. For Josh, it’s the only way for him to find his mother; and for Anya, a fulfilment of the promise she made to her best friend Holly (Eula Caballero). Will the two stand each other’s presence? Or will their mutual dislike brew something sweeter?

Nandito Ako airs weeknights at 9pm after Wil Time Bigtime on TV5.
