Deliver or Else



When a network plans a project, several factors are considered. First, the chosen talents must fit the material on hand. Second, marketing plans consider the attractiveness of the talents to the audience. Third, sometimes, the fan base plays a major factor. If a talent meets all three factors, then that talent is assured of good exposure in a project.

In one of the network’s projects, the production team combined the two of the country’s finest actresses, whose acting cannot be questioned. As long as a project calls for drama, the names of these actresses would always make the cut. The two are highly convincing when they play their roles. Regardless of being the protagonist or antagonist, the two could gain sympathy or hatred from the audience. However, a project also must bring in an audience that would be interested in the younger generation of talents. Earnest Actor (EA) fits this part.

The network, however, was not prepared for the reception of the project as the story developed. The ratings were becoming competitive, which means the writers have to keep the plot as interesting as possible to sustain and gain more viewers. The dramatic scenes were written out to ensure the fast pace of the story. Thus, the cast had to cope with the big scenes and deliver well especially in scenes with the two actresses.

Being the newest among the young talents in the project, EA has yet to realized fully his acting ability. Unfortunately, he has been identified as causing delay in the taping because of having to repeat the scenes more than twice. In one incident, EA could not get the required emotion, which made Senior Actress (SA) curse out of frustration. EA also has a hard time coping with the Other Senior Actress (OS) in their scenes. However, SA has allegedly expressed that she no longer wants to have scenes with EA, as his acting is way below the standard set by his colleagues.

The statement of SA added jitters to the production crew, who feared that she might just quit out of exasperation. The role of SA is important in the project and if she leaves, the story will be lame. Thus, the production is seriously considering killing off the character of EA, which could ease them of the burden of having so many delays due to retakes. Unless EA shapes up immediately, his appearance may indeed be shortened. Of course, there is a drawback. EA has a following and if his character is gone, his fans might no longer watch the drama. Consequently, the ratings might be affected and bashing might proliferate in social media. This dilemma is such a production nightmare.

‘Just because we're on schedule is no reason to shoot bad acting. Someone once said to me, 'You're inconsiderate.' And I said, 'Inconsiderate? Bad acting is the ultimate inconsideration.' It's a collective slap to a million faces at the same time.’ - Debra Winger

    1. EA-M, he is not actually relevant in the story. Even if his character is shortened, he will not be missed. Pareho silang bano ng ka LT niya.

    2. parang wala naman masyadong scenes si EA and SA. yung characters nila, bihira mag krus ang landas. wag na lang bigyan ng scene muna si EA and SA. si OA ba naasar na rin? napanod ko yung mga outtakes nila, mukha naman sila close lahat.

    3. M’s character is not even needed sa story mas gaganda pa nga lalo kung wala eh panira sya ng momentum ng nagagalingang artista sa serye na un.

    1. Magworkshop muna sya mga 10 yes tapos saka ulet sya humarap sa camera. Kulang na kulang pa sa kulang ang akting nya. Lol.

    2. Nadedevelop but then he's in the project already, Alam ni SA- E ang mga patakaran sa production pag na delay sila, nga nga ang show. I think having him in there with great actresses like E and M was in the first place, very off. Kailangan na rin cguro burahin ang character nya.

  5. Magaling naman sila parehas, need nga lang ng konti pang hasa kay boy

    2. Magaling? Wag indenial. Bano talaga si M pati yung ka loveteam.

    3. San banda magaling teh?! Yung LT nya parang nag rorole play lang sa highschool dept.

    4. Talagang mangilan ngilan lang ang sineswerteng artista na talagang born to act. Pero daming mga ibang baguhan na sa simula hindi magaling pero as the story goes on nakikita mo ang improvement pero this M...O to the M to G matatapos na ang serye at lahat nga nga pa din!!!

  6. Minsan nga nagsa-stutter siya. Pero nareremedyuhan naman yan.

    1. Hindi naman ung pag stutter ang problema his acting itself.

  7. Is it M? I don't think so. I think M is playing his role really well. Bilib na bilib sa sarili at naive ang role nya and he does it well. Sa kabila yata na teleserye. Kasi di naman si M ang real reason kung bakit pinapanood ang project.

  8. Even E (M’s partner) is annoying too - there was a scene where she was supposed to cry but she kept squeezing her eyelids but no tears came out. She needs to do a lot of workshops first because I was not impressed with her acting.

  9. C M to,lt ni E..well same cla di marunong umarte..pinipilit p kc ng management..dhl lng s fan base..tsk tsk..naapektuhan tuloy mga senior and veteran actors...

    ReplyDelete
  10. syempre baguhan sila .. sinabak agad sila jan sa serye na mahusay ang ganapan... pude naman sila kausapin at mag workshop pa more kung talagang may nali ... wag agad husgahan o alisin agad diba...ung veteran naman sana tulungan na mamotivate dahil alam naman baguhan eh.

  11. Ah si M na mas pabebe pa sa babae at super bulol

  12. Nanlilisik mata lang alam ni M eh

  13. Kawawa naman..he seems a good boy and doing his best to deliver but he's not that bad really and his role is so insignificant..just need to do more acting workshop.

  14. anong show po? Kaf o kah?

  15. eh kahit nga sa mga interview para sya tulala wala makuha matalinong sagot puro pacute

  16. M and E parehas silang waley sa acting, pag eksena na nila fast forward ko na lang

    1. Hahaha!!! Same here buti na lang recorded na ung napapanood kaya skip lang ng skip ung eksena nila. Saka ung roles naman nila got no relevance sa story kaya kung tatanggalin sila mas ikakaganda pa ng serye. They are a sore to watch.

  17. Ok naman si M..nakakatuwa nga sya huwag lang paiyakin

    1. Nope he’s not okay in every angle of acting department. He’s a disgrace sa teleyeserye. It must be an insult sa mga veterans na tinatapat sila sa mga artista who cannot deliver.

      Delete
  18. Sinabak kasi agad sa ganyan. Though nakakakeep up na sya lately. Aminado naman sya na dami nya pa dapat matutunan.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Sana the senior actors could be more encouraging and supportive. Bawasan na lang muna scenes ni M at E at ipaworkshop. Sina N at J kasi kaya na makipagsabayan, eh. Siguro nappressure kaya di makadeliver si M

    1. 12:53, Pa simple ka pa. Maisingit lang talaga si N and J para mag away mga fans nila. Nananahimik ang ibang LT, hanap damay ka pa...

    2. Sana kase hindi pa naman pala nya kaya dapat hindi muna sya tumanggap ng ganan na kaheavy na project. Sinisi mo pa talaga ang veterans ha. Aminin mo na lang beyond poor acting talaga idol mo.

  20. Dapat kc wag agad isabak s gnyan...kht p b mlaki fan base nila...iworkshop muna ngbongga bgo pgkakitaan pra bawi nmn s fans..duh!

  21. Nagets ko din!! Korek lahat ng nasa taas, Kung si M nga ang nasa BI. Napakachaka talaga umarte nila g magLT. Ang nakakatawa pa proud ang mga faneys. Galing daw umarte. Jusko. Parang inipit sa pinto Kung magsalita. Lalong halata pa pag kasabayan na sila big actress

  22. Ok naman si M ah. Not that I am a fan but I think he is doing pretty well for a newcomer. Bakit pa pinaabot up to this point yung character nya sa soap if his performance isn't up to par with the rest of the cast? Their show is one of the few teleseryes of KaF na story driven, not character driven. I never miss an episode!

  23. Nong kakastart pa lang netong si M at sa N show pa lang sya nakikita gustong gusto to ng mom ko pero nong napanood nya na tong si M sa serye ayaw nya na ang bano daw kaseng umakting saka pacute. Lol.

  24. May mga magsasabi na okay naman yung napapanood nila sa tv, pero yung fact na nadedelay yung ibang scenes because nakakailang retakes dahil sa kanya. Yun yung punto ng mga veteran actress.
