The Fifth Floor, directed by Sofia Esgana, received three awards: Best Visual Effects, Best Musical Scoring and Most Promising Actress.
Kyle Brent Largo, one of the judges and a former ACT JHS faculty said that the Film Fest is a really good avenue for students to practice the craft especially that when students reach senior high and college they would have more of such. "It is a very good exposure to the students.", he added.
The Film Fest had six entries: 1-800-273-8261 by Sanchia Abrea; Photograph by Kyra Talandron; Grim by Ashley Bellarmino; Fifth Floor by Sofia Esgana; Oxygen by Lyssa Lomosad; and Capgras by Shanise Semoran.
The Grim, directed by Bellarmino, was disqualified for most of the awards as it was late during the pre-judging however, the only categories the film qualifiedfor were the screenplay, poster and box office nominations.
The event was a major performance task participated by the entire Junior High School population of ACT Bulacao.
It was a collaborative performance task of English, MAPEH and ESP for the Grade 10 who made the films while Grades 7-9 were to make a film review of any one of the films as a collaborative project for MAPEH and English.
