Pending Ambition

Yes, I am Mass Communication Graduate. But the Degree isn't enough to be able to say that I have really applied my course or should I say savor its offering. Well, in my first job as a TV Reporter in GMA GenSan, I really could say that I was able to have a taste what is like to be a Media Man. It was a hard job yet it was very fulfilling. It was indeed a memorable 6 months of my entire life.

And then came my next job... Marketing Officer for Events in SM City General Santos. So far, I haven't fully absorbed everything about my new job since as of now, the mall is under construction. Not until, its opening on the 1st Quarter of 2012. But hey! I am starting to feel the pressure and the rush of working for a Mall which is set to open on a mid-sized competitive city like GenSan. It is a great opportunity that entails a bigger responsibility over my shoulders.

To top it all, I still have a pending Ambition... to be a FILM DIRECTOR someday. Well, I am still blessed to have a chance to make some of my fantasies into realities through my Video Outputs posted on YouTube. Some of my posted outputs were my College flicks' - Alas Tres (Horror Film), Spirit of the Coin (Horror flick) and many others. I admit... I am still a novice in film-making. As the Filipino saying goes "Marami pa akong kakaining bigas!". What I have learned in may AB-Mass Communication Degree is just somehow the first base towards an upgraded Film-making course. I am still dreaming that someday, if given the time and enough money, I shall enroll myself in a Film School here in the Philippines. Yes! Here in the Philippines! It is because I really admire how Pinoy do films with Social Relevance and Value. Filipinos are one of a kind film makers that target the hearts of its viewers.

No! I don't want to be in front of the camera! I wanted to be the MAN BEHIND THE FLICK! I am an avid Horror and Suspense fanatic so there is no question on what genre of films I would be producing in the future. Wes Craven, Eli Roth, Steven Spielberg, Sam Raimi and many more. From Scream 4, The Hills have Eyes, Final Destination, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th Series and many more. I shall make my own horror mark soon!

Film directing is truly one of my PENDING AMBITIONS!

"PANATA NG KAPUSO SA BAYAN"

Michael Carbon - REPORTER and RESEARCHER for GMA GENSAN TV 8 (September 29, 2010 - April 15, 2011)

It is an awesome and great experience to finally become a Certified Kapuso. Its been my dream after graduation to experience what is like to be in the TV Industry. As a Mass Communication Student, its an honor and a pleasure to be working with one of the biggest Television and Broadcasting Company in the Philippines - GMA NETWORK INC.

But I am more than prouder to say that I belong in the PIONEERING BATCH of GMA GENSAN.

It is but a Blessing and a Gift to be part of ISYU KARON SOCCSKSARGEN, the first Local Offering Show of GMA to its loyal viewers and Kapuso in South Central Mindanao. And then again, GMA continues to provide SERBISYONG TOTOO throught its innovative and localized Programs such as ISYU KARON which is launched last October and November 2010 to various key cities in the Philippines such as Dagupan, Cebu, Davao, Bacolod, Cagayan de Oro, Iloilo and General Santos City.

Truly indeed, GMA has extended its Regional Reach through the formulation of such shows in order to showcase the locality's features and as well as touch its views and related issues on the national scope.

That is why, I am so proud to become part of this wonderful endeavor by the Kapuso NETWORK.

I will always stay as KAPUSO forever bringing the priceless insights and values I have absorbed and learned all throughout my SIX MONTHS stay and dedication for the Network.

I will be always grateful to all my co-workers, my mentors and bosses, the people I have interacted and features, and of course, the Network itself for helping me reach my dreams and been able to experience its manifestation of ideals and Core Values that would make you acclaim "PROUD TO BE KAPUSO"!
