00:00Ngayong araw, pag-uusapan natin ang isang natatangin event na nagbibigay spotlight

00:04sa galing ng mga Pilipino sa larangan ng visual storytelling.

00:08Yan ay ang Philippine International Comics Festival of FICO,

00:11isang selebrasyon ng mga galing ng mga Pilipino sa paggawa ng comics

00:15mula sa makukulay na karakter, kakaibang kwento,

00:18hanggang sa world-class na talento ng ating mga comic artists.

00:21At para ikwento sa atin ang mga dapat abangan sa naturang festival,

00:25ay makakapanayam natin ang director ng Philippine International Comics Festival

00:30na si Mr. Paulo Geras.

00:33Good morning po at welcome po dito sa Rise and Shine, Pilipinas.

00:36Good morning, sir.

00:37Good morning.

00:39Good morning, thank you for having me.

00:41Sir, ano ang naging inspirasyon sa pagbuo ng PICOF

00:45at paano ito nakatulong sa pagpapalago ng comics industry dito sa ating bansa?

00:50Siguro nag-umpisa kami sa pag-organize ng mga comics art market since 2015

01:04at hindi pa rin ito sapat na kulang pa rin yung mga mambabasa,

01:10kulang pa rin yung mga creators para gumawa ng comics.

01:16Kaya na-inspire kami sa Cinemalaya ng Philippine Independent Film Festival

01:27kung saan nag-create ang mga filmmakers ng sariling pelikula

01:35at napansin ito sa abroad at in turn inspired local viewers

01:44to start watching independent Filipino films.

01:47So, yun yung ginawa naming strategiya para sa pagpapalago

01:53ng hindi lang mga bagong comics kundi mambabasa nito.

02:00Sir, ito pong pick of mga ilang years na po ulit ito?

02:03Alang years na po?

02:06We started organizing the Philippine International Comics Festival since 2020.

02:15Inannounce kami ng 2019 kung may mga komikero na interesado na makahanap ng mga mambabasa

02:23hindi lang dito sa Pilipinas kundi sa iba't-ibang bagi ng mundo.

02:28At nakahanap kami ng mga creator na nag-submit ng mga comics pitches

02:36at namili kami ng sampu para merong kaming official selection.

02:41So, pick of is the only comics festival in the world

02:44that has an official selection of 10 graphic novel pitches

02:47na dinedevelop namin sa isang creator's lab

02:50at pinapublish in time for the festival.

02:53Kaso, 2019 yun, a few months later, nagkaroon ng pandemia

02:59and then it affected the creators in different ways

03:07that they have to focus on their livelihood,

03:09they had to focus on their own overall health.

03:14And so, ang ginawa po namin, we pivoted our festival also online.

03:20Inannounce namin ang pick-off

03:23at nakilala namin yung mga iba't-ibang comics festivals around the world.

03:29Mga katulad namin na pare-pareho yung mga hinain ng comics sa bawat bansa.

03:34So, nakilala namin yung mga comics publishers from Southeast Asia

03:41tsaka mga creators, mga scholars at critics.

03:45So, we've been organizing the online festivals from 2020 to 2023.

03:51And then last year, we held our first physical festival.

03:54So, itong footage na yung nakita nyo ay from last year.

03:59And then, second na ngayong weekend.

04:02Sir Palo, very exciting to para sa mga mambabasa ng comics

04:09at para dun sa mga mismong comic creators.

04:12Ano na lang po yung gusto nating ma-empart ng mensahe

04:15para dito sa ating gagawing pick-off sa mga dadalo?

04:17Lalo na sa mga kabataan na maaaring pumasok dito sa industriyang ito

04:21at mga bagong henerasyon po ng mga comic creators?

04:24Siguro, the biggest change that we have for Filipino comics

04:36ay unti-unti na siyang nakikilala sa abroad ulit.

04:39So, kung dati, noong 60s at 70s, nakikilala ang comics illustrators natin

04:47kasi na-hire sila sa US, yung mga big comics publishers tulad ng Marvel at DC.

04:56So, kilala ang mga Pilipinong ilustrador ng comics

05:02dahil sa bilis at galing at husay nila sa pagdodrawing.

05:10Ngayon naman, nakikilala ulit ang Pilipinas,

05:15ang mga comics ng Pilipinas

05:18dahil natatranslate na siya sa iba't-ibang languages

05:22sa iba't-ibang bahagi ng mundo.

05:25In fact, the most translated literary genre of the Philippines

05:30as of today is Filipino comics

05:34with over 100 foreign translations.

05:39And we've only been doing this for over 3 years now,

05:43representing the Philippines in international book fairs,

05:46in international comics festivals.

05:49And the most translated Filipino book is a comic book.

05:53It's Sa Wala by Renren Galeno.

05:57She's a Pulitzer finalist last year.

06:00And she won the National Book Award here in the Philippines

06:04for her graphic novel, Sa Wala.

06:06And it's translated in 8 languages worldwide.

06:10So, maraming dahilan para matuwa sa comics.

06:18Maraming dahilan para magsimulang magbasa muli ng comics.
